I got a Pioneer 108, for my DP 867 MDD but it screwed up my system. The original was cable select so I tried it as cable select, then master, then cable select with the original as cable select. It wouldn't work.

Meanwhile, the main OSX.3.5 I was using on a drive on a 133 ATA card, which was fine before, was no longer recognized as a system disk. I reset the PRAM and NVRAM, and repaired the permissions, but there was no luck. I can get at the disk to use anything on it, but it won't boot.

I guess I should try that patch, but it seems that since the drive didn't work I need to figure out what else is going on. It was recognized in the system profiler, but it said "NO" where it lists if it will read/write.

I guess I have to shave off the corners of the disk tray when I figure the rest out, has anyone done that?

A while back, I thought I read in this list that there was some sort of
"patch" to get the Pioneer drives to work properly with B&Ws. I am
getting a DVR-108 for my B&W in a couple days and was wondering what
this "patch" was for and where I could get it.

There may be a patch for a Pioneer 108, but I've got a 105 that ran fine in a Beige under 10.2.8 for nearly a year. When I got my B&W I stuck it in there and it works perfectly, fully supported.
