Dewman Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 OK I hosed a 10.4.9 update (constant reboots) forgot copy the mach kernel back. Is there a way to do it in the 10.4.8 installer disk through the terminal if not I have a disk image from before the update witch I found out I can't restore from the disk utilities on the installer. I do have another installation on a nother HDD in the system but for some reason when I select it in the installer under start up disk and reboot she still boots from the hosed disk. Can anyone help or am I stuck reinstalling again? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewman Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 Ok had to swap the hdd around to boot from other drive, restoring now. Still would like to know how to boot from other drive without physically swapping the drives. Darwin only shows one instance of osx when I hit f8.

Dewman Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 ok took update to 10.4.9 without new kernel. I have a rhineII onboard network card with the rhineII driver working but really slow. Copying a 6 gig file from my xp machine took 15 hrs, Internet seems fine. Is there anyway to speed this up? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
