Had the same issue.... I just gave mine a kick and install panther fresh..."Have not had to do that is almost 3 years..." try that with a windows machine you have to do a fresh install every 5 mths to have a stable system.... Well as for files hope you backed up.... Good luck.. -----Original Message----- From: g4-bounces at listserver.themacintoshguy.com [mailto:g4-bounces at listserver.themacintoshguy.com] On Behalf Of lightpainter at cox.net Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2005 11:38 PM To: g4 at listserver.themacintoshguy.com Subject: [G4] Harddrive problem Hi all, My G4 450DP, OS 10.3 wouldn't wake up from sleep. On restart 9.2 booted and the osx drive was not mounted. I was able to reboot on a drive with 10.2.6 but disk utility can't read the original drive ( not mounted). Diskwarrior says " The directory of the disk "..." cannot be rebuilt. the original directory is too severely damaged. The disk was not modified (2155, 2211)." Any ideas? Help? Special prayers?
