Appropriate driver(s) for the specific CD drive present / resident on the booted HD?
IIRC.. the Motorola StarMax clones required an additional "enabler" available
from their original install disc(?), when clean-installing / upgrading HD/OS from
Apple source discs. Same may be true for Power Computing clones?
Similar prob with the StarMax, once upon a time. Can’t remember the
little “fix” (enabler, extension, etc.) But now, upon checking StarMax
original install CD… it came with a version of FWB’s CD-ROM Toolkit
which may be of some help.
And along the way this morning… found this:
