the DVD is a LG DVD/CDRW combo GCC-4480. Sorry, did you say updating the firmware fixed the trouble? Might be worth a try.
If you can find an update, I would try. It does appear that LG makes non-standard drives, if you have read about the Mandrake fiasco. My guess is they have cut too many standards in their effort to make an affordable drive. I have learned my lesson though. BTW, I had to install from the CDs (this was 8.2). It would start to install and just before it was to load the packages to be installed, it couldn't read from the drive, and couldn't proceed any further.
