Kuebeker Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hi When I boot from the Kalaway DVD or my HD with 10.5.X it get's stuck at the very beginning of the booting sequence. I get t a black screen with these characters. >00000080 <00000002 000000C1 00000048 *<00064028 J Before getting this weirdness OS 10.5.2 worked perfectly except for the common issues. Here is the history of my 10.5.x install that lead to this issue: I have a 1tb hd with 3 partitions. One for OS 10.5.X testing one for working and one for free space. Installed Kalaway 10.5.2 on first Carbon Copyed it to the second partition. updated the first to 10.5.5 Got a blue screen and thought it was a faliour. forced reboot. got the wierd number sequence. Updated the BIOS. Got to boot into the install DVD ok. Reboot Got the wierd numbers again reflasfed old BIOS reboot still have the wierd numbers. reboot with XP install cd. Works ok reboot Got the blue screen Took a log shower Booted up fine while I was takin a shower retasrted OS 10.5.5 stuck at thoes wierd numbers again. I get the feeling that it is the PC EFI V8 that is some how corupted. What do you think Any known solution? Yes I googled and found every thing except what I need:-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/131525-can-no-longer-boot-from-install-dvd-or-hds-wierd-numbers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
supergnu Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 got the exact same problem! OS X was working just fine, but after reinstallation also getting those weird numbers at startup. Did you resolve the problem somehow? Does anyone know the cause of this issue? Thanks!

Beerkex'd Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Next time you can get it to boot to the desktop, download and install the latest version of the Chameleon bootloader. Use google to find it - the forum does not allow links to the Chameleon website for some reason.
