com.Apple.Boot.plist not found

[chip22]

My Leopard (iAtkos 5i) system worked perfectly for 3 weeks, but today when i try to start computer i see next error : /com.apple.boot/S/Library/Preference/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist not found.

 

What happens?

 

Then I boot with bootloader 132 and i could start Leopard, but without bootloader 132 i receive the same message with /com.apple.boot.plist not found.

I looked in Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and i found file com.apple.boot.plist .

 

This is the file content:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<plist version="1.0">

<dict>

<key>Kernel</key>

<string>custom</string>

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>-f</string>

<key>Boot Graphics</key>

<string>Yes</string>

<key>Quiet Boot</key>

<string>No</string>

<key>Timeout</key>

<string>5</string>

</dict>

</plist>

 

What is the solution to boot without bootloader 132?

 

Thanks in advance.

Does it boot with the -x argument? Also, are you booting from a complete power-down or a warm boot? Try pulling the plug and then start it up. I'm noticing some frustrating hard drive sleep issues that persist across reboots.

-f is an old boot argument

-x is the newer version

 

you should not have it permanently in your bootplist.kext

( this causes your computer every startup to check and load fresh all drivers=extensions=kexts)

normally the kexts are packed into extensions.mkext and only this one is loaded at startup.

 

boot with -x

if it doesnt help

boot with -x -v

and tell where it stucked

I have found that there are 2 "Library" folders. I think that the one that you are trying to access is under (HD Name).

1. Library

2. System > Library

3. User > Library

 

there are 3 of them ( and correctly spelled like above)
