Excuse the silly question, but you haven't disabled or otherwise
lost the iomega INIT have you ?  Try booting from the drive with
the iomega boot cartridge in.  Also try using the 'guest' application.

If that doesn't work I'd urge you to try it back on your friend's
Mac.  The result will tell you lots about what's wrong.
