I believe I saw this issue when I was nosing around trying to figure out how
to resurrect my DV 400. IIRC, this can be symptomatic of either a failed
firmware update, or installing Panther without updating firmware first.

It came up pretty frequently in my searches of google and/or the Apple KB. I
don't recall the exact resolution...
