~pcwiz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 If you back up your original kernel like this: Open Terminal from Applications/Utilities and enter these commands pressing enter after each: sudo -s [enter password] cp /mach_kernel /mach_kernel.backup Now install the new kernel. If it doesn't work, you can boot from the old kernel again by going to the F8 boot: prompt and typing in: mach_kernel.backup Hope this helps!
