JOEKER Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I thought I saw a post earlier about somone with the same problem. I've searched and searched and now I cannot find it again. If some one could direct me or help me here, I would be most appriciative. I loaded 10.4.6 successfully, (except with audio probs) doing a dual boot w/ XP on a Dell Inspiron 5160. Later, I ran the update pkg for 10.4.8. It ran fine w/ out error, but when I rebooted, I get as far as the loading screen, and no farther. I used SSE3 on the install 10.4.6 install, and everything worked. I used the SSE3 upgrade pkg.

madaspy Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I am also having the same issue as well. In my case, i have used the Jas 10.4.8 Dvd and did a clean install. I should note that i had the same issue from the upgrade as well as the clean install.

madaspy Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Ok, i think i have made some progress. I did the Jas installation and that is it. i didn't not do any of the other options on the jas 10.4.8 dvd. It was only at that point that i was able to get the installation to boot. So far i believe that the issue lies within the USB components that are installable options on the dvd. I hope this works Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32269-lock-on-boot-after-1048-upgrade-from-46/#findComment-229451 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOEKER Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Well, I've not yet aquired the 4.8 install DVD, but when I do, I will try as you suggest. I hope if works and is more stable than the 4.6 version. I get frequent crashes and it doesn't seem to matter what programs i am running. One other thing, I can connect to my wireless network at home, yet I cannot connect to the internet using that connection. I have to plug in an ethernet cord if I want to use the net. Any thoughts there?> Thanks.

djKianoosh Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I saw a "failed to load extension" on "AppleUSBEHCI" right before it reboots/halts. So there's probably some validity to what madaspy's saying.. I'll try his approach in a sec.... update: I installed just the combo update and the PCIE update for my X1600 and that didn't work. I then wiped out the partition and started over and installed just the combo update 10.4.8 and it works. my screen resolution is a crappy 1024 and it should be 1680x1050 but i'll figure that out later... hope this helps somebody troubleshoot it further.

nerdbeere Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 hi, you mean just the combo update without one of the two kernel and no ati driver?

nerdbeere Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 hi, my solutions was not to install the ati kext! only the Jas Combo Update was checked, no extra Kernel... good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32269-lock-on-boot-after-1048-upgrade-from-46/#findComment-230892 Share on other sites More sharing options...
