captainjon Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hi, I have an Elitebook 8460p and had Lion running on it. I backed it up to a external drive, and then it stopped working. I restored it, but it crashes halfway through boot up and i cant see the error message. Is there a way to find out what the error message is, single user mode crashes too, so i can only imagine the bios is messed up because the backup was working. if i run an install dvd and then terminal, i can cat /var/logs/system.log but there is no more command, is there a good command line tool to examine a long log file? thanks Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eep357 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 VIM or NANO. But usually when you have issues booting a clone, depending on what tool was used to make it, it's a boot loader problem. Try reinstalling Chameleon and then booting with -x -f -v before messing with anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
