Since the TiBook is missing the analog audio cable that usually connects
the soundcard and cdrom you need to use the xmms-cdread package to play
audio cds. Once you've installed the package and restarted xmms you can
open the file /dev/cdrom and listen to the music. It works on my iBook2
rev 2 from July 2002.

One small detail also, when you write something to the list that is not
a reply to someone else, please send a new message. When you send a
reply to an unrelated message instead of a new message chances are that
people uninterested in problems with partition tables on secondary hard
drives will not read your message.
