Well, it sure does look like the obvious - your hardware (CD/DVD drive) is giving 10.3.4 conniptions. As in - something is not compatible - possibly a software influenced incompatibility.

I'm also a Pismo owner and for you (even though you have been a bad boy), I will pop out my CD/DVD drive and test....

-- I've quit all apps including Classic, then popped the drive - oh, oh, a kernel panic ---- restart.
-- Logged into my "clean" user account (the one without all the crap installed) and no kernel panic on CD/DVD drive removal.
-- OK --- logged out then logged back into my usual account. Popped drive and no kernel panic.
-- Big ???


If you are getting the kernel panic EVERY time, as you say, then create a new user and see what happens in that account.

The original thread stated all the "obvious". If nobody knows yet as to what is causing this problem, then just say so. There's no need to waste server space in this list to criticize each other. My problem happens EVERY time I remove the CD/DVD drive, with or without a disc. . .as I stated in the original thread. I also stated that I'm aware that there can't be a disk in the drive. . .but if there is, all you should be prompted with is a warning window that says the item was not ejected properly, etc. The computer is not supposed to crash. What does a crash in OS X look like? The entire screen goes black, and there's a window in the middle saying rather demanding, "YOU MUST RESTART YOUR COMPUTER, PLEASE HOLD DOWN POWER BUTTON FOR A FEW MINUTES". This message is listed in the window several times. . .in different languages.
