dementho Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Hey guys, something really really stupid happen to me. I wanted to reinstall my netbook that was running on 10.5.8 and tried to install SL so i started the netbookbootmaker to get the final step done. Unfortunately i did not click on the right device and it installed all on my desktop hdd. everything was ok until i restarted the system. when the aple logo shows up it crashes and tells me to restart. i tried to boot with -v,-x-s or any other option but still the same... restarting then i put in a apple cd and i can login. but without booting from disk its not possible. anyhow everything seems to work. only the sound is gone. i have a intel q9550, gigabyte ep45-ud3l and a 9500gt 1gb running on a 10.5.7 machine. so how do i get everything back to normal? i guess it was the netbookbootmaker 0.8.3 i was using :S hope you guys can help me. its urgent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraz.yashar Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Do you have any secondary kernels sitting on the drive? If not, install one and try booting with that kernel to see what happens. Also, make sure you use the Boot 132 Generic disc since I think you've killed your boot.plist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraz.yashar Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 What boot loader are you using to get into your system? And what build of OS X did you install with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
