o the book disk i made will not mount in OSX or OS 9, does that mean that it wasn't written properly?
and once i get the disk out how can i clean it / realign the heads? i did notice when i had it out that the top head did not lower the disk surface.... would this cause it to not read properly.... is there any way to fix this?
