DIY power adapter ok for Tiger, not for Leopard

Well, the “just like new” keyboard I bought arrived from across the ocean this morning, wrapped in not much more than brown paper and sticky tape, and (of course) broken.
I can’t imagine why the “Fragile” sticker didn’t save it from the parcel handlers.
As it turns out, my original keyboard is in much better condition anyway so I just swapped in the keys I had missing, and voila!
Am currently having lots of fun adding album art to several million tracks imported via data dvd(s) burnt from my Apple Music library—all legal I believe… at least I think…

P.S. I have quite an eclectic library as I used to receive many CDs “for review”—many from artists I’d never heard of, some really quite good.
They all ended up being ingested into various iterations of iTunes until iTunes Match came along and sort-of helped, but also sort-of messed some things up.

Can you elaborate? Any insightful messages when booting verbosely (hold [Command]-[V] after powering on)?

Thanks for this Amethyst1, I hope this is not too much information:

The last couple of lines refer (I think) to a USB network drive attached to my wireless router. The drive automatically mounts after login and seems fine.

Time for an update; PATA drive finally arrived after it had been "lost" (according to the company) and I'd been given a refund.
Carbon Copy Cloner is doing its stuff and then we'll see how it goes.
