GroundZero Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Did you try F8 and booting with mach_kernel -v to see if something is failing during the boot process?

wiredmeyer Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 Thanks form the reply. I did a -x -v and everything stops after the display shows no family or something to that effect. I will try your suggestion now. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/12464-boot-stops-at-loading-osx/#findComment-78860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
