sudo nvram boot-args='mbasd=1'
sudo nvram boot-args='mbasd=1'
sudo nvram boot-args='mbasd=1'
was great advice - EXCEPT it would have wiped out my previous setting. First, I ran nvram boot-args
, which showed that I already had boot-args set to -v
on this MacBook Pro. So, knowing that, I instead ran sudo nvram boot-args='-v mbasd=1'
which worked like a charm. I rebooted , and the DVD drive was recognized and I was able to burn (an ubuntu DVD-RW) with it.
