iBook hard drive not recognised
I recently installed 10.5 onto my iBook G4 (933Hz 640MB) using target mode from my Mac Mini. I couldn't use the Leopard DVD install disc as it has got stuck in the Disc drive of the iBook, even though the laptop was working fine with 10.4.

When I restart it I now get a flashing question mark, i.e. the iBook can't find the hard drive. I can't use Disk Warrior as I can't use the internal disc drive.

I have reset PRAM but that didn't help. I am now out of ideas.

Any suggestions?
