stormlight Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I have seen this for amd users http://osx.kbot.de/comments.php?DiscussionID=799 it pretty much states that the ecrypted loginwindow, mds, cpuids kernel and system kext are replaced or modified. A script is in there to fix amd users. Can anyone smarter then I come up one for intel users? thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/94634-how-to-fix-the-new-time-machine-update-that-broke-my-box/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuusharo Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 It turns out Apple sneaked in a kernel update with this time machine update, I guess to remind us that any update can kill our systems. It updates the kernel to 9.2.2, of course overriding your current kernel to a vanilla. To fix this you'll have to find a way to replace the mach_kernel and system.kext files to your old 9.2.0 version. A good rule of thumb is to have a backup kernel on the root (with proper permissions) that is named differently. This way, if Apple ever sneaks another update, you'll have a backup to turn to to at least get to your desktop and fix whatever needs to be fixed.
