That's what I mean about Apple's brilliance. I made the mistake of
upgrading from 9.0.4 to 9.1 on a few machines under the delusion that it
would be an improvement. Now none of my HP printers work under that
improvement. I dug up a drive with the old 9.0.4, put it in the same
computer, and they popped right up and worked.
The corporate decision to not support non-apple drives has the same
stench as the enablers of yore where a specific machine needed its
proper enabler. I never understood what they gained, or controlled, but
they did punish all of us who bought their equipment and every once in a
while I have to dredge up memories of that arcane witlessness to get an
old machine booted up.
I guess I was naive about some reasonably effortless work-around; Jobs
got me again. That'll teach me!
