installation problems

[Christopher Rosado]

John-

Have you tried the eject button that is on the drive itself? If I'm  
not mistaken, you should see what seems to be a pinhole on the right  
hand side of the CD drive (slot-loading). There is a similar hole on  
the tray loading drives that were in the early iMacs (233) but I  
don't recall where. I want to say somewhere around the eject button  
you'd normally press.- Have a paper clip handy, reboot and  
immediately insert the paper clip into that pinhole. You should feel  
the eject button depress. If your timing is right, the disk should  
pop out.

HTH,
--Christopher
