Hello all!

 

Just had two kernel panics in a row and as I did some minor changes (mostly related to make iMessage work), I wanna to track it down.

But, or am I wrong, or the logs are store in a different place.

 

I tried on ~\Library\Logs\DiagnosticReports and also on Apple Menu > About This Mac > System Report > Software > Logs (then read kernel.log) but no traces of the error on these locations.

 

Running Yosemite DP6 with Clover (also tried the Clover Folder on \Library\Logs) on the the machine of the signature.

 

Has it changed place?

@asapreta,

 

Try using bdmesg from OSX terminal to get the boot log :).

 

Edit

From this Apple support document, the kernel panic should be logged to /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.  You can use the Console.app to view the kernel panic log files :

 

Applications > Utilities > Console.app > System Diagnostic Reports

 

Good Luck!

 

PS What particular changes were you trying to make imessage work?  Someone has reported the latest Clover Aptiofix driver (to enable native NVRAM) breaks boot and also others have reported issues with iMessage that require calling Apple Support when they have tried the new driver - see post @projectosx.

Thanks for the tip but I think it generates the same log as I have on boot.log on ~\Library\Logs\CloverEFI

 

No signs of the last Kernel Panic message. :(
