I recently picked up a nice iMac "Flat Panel" G4 700MHz. This came with the 
CD-RW drive. Since I wanted to be able to use DVDs (and also install 
Leopard), I replaced the CD-RW drive with a DVD-ROM drive from one of my 
old PCs. It actually works very well, with a couple of very minor 
exceptions:

1) The drive is completely invisible (and therefore unusable) in Disk 
Utility.
2) The "eject.menu" icon in the menu bar shows "No Drives" when attempting 
to eject. 

The Disk Utility issue hasn't proven to be a problem yet. But, if the Eject 
key on my keyboard ever died, the 2nd issue *could* become a problem. 
Anyway, does anyone have any ideas as to why these issues exist?

Thanks...

Bob
