Been running jas 10.4.10 load for about a month no with no problems. Last night I shutdown machine normally and installed xp on a 3rd sata hdd I've had in the pc. Worked great. I also put in 2 more gigs of memory. I had 2x1gig+2x512. Now I have 4x1gig sticks. Went to restart this morning into Mac OSX Drive (just changed boot drives in BIOS) and get this error message below.

 

"System config file ' /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist' not found"

 

Is this due to the hardware change?

 

And how can I restore or recreate the boot.plist file?

 

Much thanks!

More Info

 

Ok now I have removed the xp hdd from the system; no change.

Installed from Jas 10.4.8 to another hdd and boots ok. Checking my old hdd macintosh hdd shows boot.plist file is still in correct location.

Fixed it thanks.

 

Installed X to another hdd and then copied over the plist file and ran fsck and disk permission fix. Ta da.
