None of the OS is great if it doesn’t support USB & Internet. Even Leopard doesn’t get a compromise. Most of the people installed Leopard or upgraded to Leopard will face a problem where the USB drives will not be detected. I was tired of searching with Google and finally found a fix for the USB drivers to be detected.You need to install the latest drivers for USB in the leopard machine. Get it from the Apple Developer Connection – USB Debug Kits. You need to get registered in order to download it from the Apple Developer Connection.

Hey I. The Apple site they say that you must download the correct version of the package forthe different versions of Leopard. So which version is yours for?
I found that if my USB drive is connected during the Boot then it is detected, but if I start leopard without do necting it then what ever I do it doesn’t connect ( mount ). I also tried the 10.5.2 IOUSB but its of no use.
Please someone help me!

Try installing the driver for ‘Installer for both Intel and PPC based systems’ –
