Hameer Abbasi Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Okay, I used Disk Utility to format a partition (previously Linux Swap) to HFS+, and there's no data on it, yet. Since then, Chameleon (actually, Chimera 1.8) has been booting in CLI mode. I checked with Chameleon wizard, and it says the GUI is set as on. I've manually viewed my org.chameleon.boot.plist, and it had nothing in it about the GUI. Update: I've tried GUI="Yes" in org.chameleon.boot.plist, it doesn't work.

bigben1 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 more details about your system and hdd please! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/277189-chameleon-booting-in-cli-mode/#findComment-1807890 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Do you have /Extra/Themes/Default with the default theme inside? Check your /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist and see if it's not set to load a theme that you don't have.

Hameer Abbasi Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hello everybody. After following your guides, it didn't come to anything, for some weird reason. I have 4 partitions on my HDD: Windows 7 (NTFS), Mac OS X (HFS+), Recovery (HFS+), Hameer (NTFS). The GUI vanished directly after creating the Recovery Partition, which was changed to HFS+ from Linux Swap (I previously had Ubuntu installed). Chimera 1.9.1 is installed on Mac OS X, which contains my /Extra folder, which Chimera should have detected, but it didn't for some weird reason. I've now copied over /Extra to "Recovery", and the GUI loads just fine. My question now is: how do I mantain only one /Extra, instead of two?

alaskantraveler Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 sure you aren't booting your recovery volume instead of the one you want to boot? Might try chameleon instead of chimera, and see if that makes a difference.

Hameer Abbasi Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 No, unfortunately I'm using Chimera's injection for my card. I'll try installing it on my Mac OS X volume once again, though.
