The 922 chip is used in all combo (FW/USB 2.0 & FW800/USB 2.0) configurations. If anyone on the list has a combo FireCube or IceCube drive or enclosure you can check your firmware version per the webpage below. You can also download the latest (1.05) firmware from the same page but please read the WARNINGS first. Our advice is that you make sure you have a backup of your external drive data and then just simply try it out with Panther. If there isn't a problem and you have firmware 1.03 or later I'd recommend that you proceed as normal. Remember the problem only occurs if you boot from Panther with the external combo drive connected so you can connect your drive after booting up your machine to copy data and check the firmware. http://www.macpower.com.tw/news/2003/10/30/112 ----------------------------------------- If you unsubscribed last week and have received this email today, please can you unsubscribe again as we have been changing mail servers.
