VicTheKnife Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 So i just installed 10.4.3 and the installation went fine. At the end of the installation it wouldnt reboot on its own, so after 30 minutes I just restarted it. Then when I booted up, it started working like regular, but then I got a message that said that I must restart my system. I did and then nothing happened. So I booted up in safe mode and I got it to start working but even in safe mode, it would not restart. Then I thought maybe I had the wrong version of Mac Osx, but I guess I had the right version all along. Has anyone had this problem? What do you recomend? ps, it took me forever to get my hard-drive configured and now it has! I am so so anxious to get this going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technobob Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 At startup hit F8 and at the Darwin prompt type -v this will tell you where your system is crashing report back with the info.

VicTheKnife Posted January 25, 2006 Author Share Posted January 25, 2006 (edited) Specs: Intel P 4 socket 478 prescot 3.0gHz 512 SDRAM JaS 1111a Generic Patch v4.2b PPF ATI Radeon 9800 SATA HD (hasn't been an issue at all) I think it might be a video card problem? I'll run a -v and report the error Edited January 25, 2006 by VicTheKnife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 i got the same problem, my computer doesnt restart. when doing -v i see that there is an RT2560 (wireless network card) that is trying to reconnect to the network. i guess thats just a problem with the driver not being able to halt itself. so far the only resolution for that error that i can see is a timer bypass that will cut-off any services that don't take requests from system halt, or just a new driver all together. sooooooo -v should tell you the problem. atleast i know it did for me. fixing it is another story. atleast its no harddrive read/write services running while i press reset, which is good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
