Greetings ( + )!( + ) I came across this little tidbit the other day and you might want to give it a try, it was stated that it might be helpful when you couldn't get your system to boot. 1. Start-up in single user mode 2. enter the following: sudo nvram boot-args="" reboot I don't have any problems booting but I've tried the command sequence and it does cause a reboot. Good luck, Harry San Jose, ø?ºº?ø,¸¸,ø?ºº?ø,¸¸,ø?ºº?ø,¸¸,ø?º?ø On Feb 28, 2009, at 12:12 AM, Umar Stone wrote: > > I gave up trying a few things and downloaded XPostFacto had a look > at all the Open Firmware Verbose stuff, and tried a few more > settings on the G4, > > I decided hey I'll try and Download 10.4.11 for my master since > maybe it only being 10.4.10, while the SATA was 11, could have > caused some incompatibility issue > > After trying to load it up on my Master drive (the working one) it > crashed in the process and now the whole computer Master and Slave > won't open past startup; the blue band won't even start loading up, > PRAM and Option or Firmware resets wont do a thing. > > So I figured it out Tiger 10.4.11 Combo PPC - KILLED MY MAC > _______________________________________________ > G4 mailing list > G4 at listserver.themacintoshguy.com > http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/g4
