dorkbydesign. Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Uhh... This is kinda embarrasing but I was trying to update to 10.5.3 and I installed the first package and I accidentally pressed Restart. Now my machine dosent boot. It gets stuck at the apple logo and spinning gear thing. When i boot with -v the last line i see relates to iTunesPhoneDriver what could this be? Help?? Anyone? Now I'm desperate. I'm willing to pay a reasonable price for the solution to my problem.

dorkbydesign. Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Ralf, your solution may work but I need you to tell me something. When I type /sbin/mount -uw /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/ it says: /dev/disk0s1 on /Volumes: Specified device does not match mounted device. And I'm sure it disk0s1. what's wrong and how do I fix it. EDIT: Now it says: mount: unknown special file or file system /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD and I swear its HFS+ / Mac OS Extended (Journaled) what do you mean seek? and how do i save?

grendelkhan Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 If it won't mount your hard drive, the only other thing I would suggest is booting from the install disk (kalyway, leo4all, etc), and opening a terminal and then trying to get to the file that way. By "seek" he means "find", just go down through the file until you get to that line. What update did you use? Kalyway's hacked update or the Apple combo?

dorkbydesign. Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 I used the Kalyway one. Except I installed the first one and Rebooted without installing the second one. Can't I just delete "InstallAtStartup"? It would be easier as I'm n00b at Terminal but I'm pr0 with Ubuntu.... So...

grendelkhan Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 The problem is getting at that drive. If you can't get into it through single user mode, you're pretty much screwed, unless you boot from an install CD.

lemmy01 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 boot from Install disk an use diskutil to repair your Drive. (there you could also get the correct devicename) its possible that disk0s1 is wrong in your case then do the things i discribed above. When you get the "/dev/disk0s1 on /Volumes: Specified device does not match mounted device." error you have missed the slash after Volumes "/sbin/mount -uw /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/" and not "/sbin/mount -uw /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes " Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113347-screwed-up-update-to-1053-money-offered/#findComment-804261 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorkbydesign. Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 No, I can get into the drive through Ubuntu except I don't now what to do..... Disk Utility says that the device is mounted at /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD I also don't understand what you're trying to tell me to do. Am I supposed to find for that line of text and replace it? If so, how do I do it in Terminal I can access the file from the Ubuntu Live CD by using sudo nautilus '/media/Macintosh HD/System/InstallAtStartup' Can't I just delete InstallAtStartup?

newbmac Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Sometimes it is easier to just reinstall than try and figure it out. You might want to have a backup program in the future so you can just do a quick restore.
