I have installed 10.5.2 on an seperate IDE drive to my 10.4.9 install and since using my USB drives on Leopard when go back to Tiger they are not recognised. They appear in the Sys Profiler and in Disk Utility but will not mount. I have tried to repair the drives in Leopard but to no avail, it just hangs. They also cause all sorts of bugs (won't eject, show me the root directory but nothing more among many). I'm now trying to repair one of them in tiger and it tells me "Invalid Volume Header" and seems to get stuck at "Checking volume bitmap"
