Hi Steve:

Your difficulty puzzles me as I've been able to use the iso's fine on my external fw drive or anywhere else I choose to plant YDL 4.1.

Questions:
Before you burned the iso's did you check the md5 of each iso you downloaded? Which md5 test did you use Apple's (which is embedded within Disk Utility and useless for our purposes) or did you use md5 which is available within Darwin via the Terminal?

Suggestion: Use the version of md5 available within Darwin via the Terminal. Of course, I'm sure that you'll check whatever md5 reports against what TSS says the md5 should be for each iso, and after each iso exactly matches then you burn the iso onto the CDs. I merely mention this in passing as the most obvious difficulty is downloading all the data in every iso TSS intended that you, I and everyone else, receive. It is rather easy to overlook as we have come to expect that every thing just function. This might not be the cause of your problem. However, unless it is eliminated as a contributing factor moving towards considering other possibilities could be like repairing other aspects of one's living room only to highlight the hump underneath one's carpet in the center.

I’ve anxiously awaited the release of the promised easy install to an external firewire drive. Downloaded the four iso’s and what do you know, the installer will not recognize my firewire drive. I’ve formatted the drive with the OSX installation disk utility as free space, no go! I’m not a total newbie but at this point I’m at a loss as to what to do next. Does anyone have a suggestion?
 Thanks
