I have a casing that I put my DVD Burner in. It just hooks up via USB. At this point I believe that the Combo drive in my iBook is busted, but I am torn between buying Mac OSX Tiger and iLife, or a new combo drive. If I boot into Linux, it recognizes the drive fine. But is there a way I can get my iBook to recognize outside of Linux, so I can put the Mac OS cd in and boot from it inside the external drive? Or does the iBook only recognize it in the OS?
EDIT: I read the help and went to the startup disk selecter, and all that shows up is my hard drive.
