p2 cards not mounting

[James Mulryan] “The fact that Panasonic never provided a firewire based card reader because of their bias towards pc format machines is a shame.”

That would be called the AJ-PCD20, Firewire 800 as one of its connections.

Best,

Wiped my drive, reinstalled Tiger… and the cards mount with no issue. Definitely a pain in the ass, but the only solution. Thanks Shane.

Hi Johnatan,

Now that you have re installed, MAKE a Bootable back up OS onto an external hard drive, they are dirt cheap and will save your bacon when things go west in the OS.
I use Carbon copy cloner and it can install only the altered files in a Bcak up, that just takes a few minutes to restore an OS that is misbehaving.

Thanks for the advice, Tom. Will do ASAP – sucks to have to learn things like this the hard way, but now I know.

Hi Johnathon,
If your running Leopard OS, make sure you format your Spare OS drive as “GUID” not mac extended ect.
it’s a choice in Disk utility.
