George Wassef Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 i forgot to customize the post install patch and now after restart it hangs with the message that i have to restart my computer bye holding down the power button. When i boot with -V i got a yellow line that the system failed to upload one of the kexts but i do not get it cause the screen moves fast. and it stopped with the last line of the kernel info with my laptop model. can you help me to recover form this , or i shall install a new system ? thanks and sorry for disturbing. Note: i managed to boot with -x option after removing the VGA kexts. but i am still not able to boot into the normal mode. I am running on Dell D630 iATKOS v4i 2 GB RAM GMAX3100 VGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteMonster Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I had Kalyway 10.5.2 Installed. Ran Prepare for Combo Then ran the combo update. At the end of the update, I did NOT click restart, instead my screen turns a bit grey and the lil black box comes out forcing me to hard-reset (restart) my computer. Basically, I couldn't get it to work on Kalyway 10.5.2 because the apple update caused a restart before i can run the post-patch. FIX: Instead, I installed Aitkos v4i which is 10.5.4, then everything worked perfectly! I ran the prepare for combo, then the apple 10.5.5 update, then the post patch and restarted computer. Everything booted and works perfectly on first try. I'm now on Aitkos v4i w/ Mysticus C*'s 10.5.5 Combo Update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakweeze Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I got a good one here.... Installed Fresh Kalyway 10.5.2 Ran prepatch Ran combo update 10.5.5 Ran Post patch selected several different options (reinstalled and tried multiple times) Common selections: Vanilla Kernel 10.5.5 Bios 1066 (do I even need to select a bios?) Audio Restore (which didn't keep my audio, still not present on reboot) Network Restore (I'll get to that later) and the last time I tried I selected Bios 800 AND SMBBios Resolver --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now all of these options let me boot into OS X after... but I never get a double restart, just a single restart, AND when I boot in About this Mac shows 10.5.5 (wee!) BUT!!!! NO MORE DOCK!.... I try to force restart the dock via Onyx, no go. Also when I go into networking preferences the preferences page locks up into the pin wheel of death. Now when I told it the first time to install the combo update and ran the post I could get into the networking but it flipped the names of my two networking ports around and I had to manually assign an IP address to get online, the second time third time and fourth, it would never connect to the network and when, like I said, I tried to bring up the panel, it'd just lock up. So what the *BLEEP* :] Thanks for all the hard work, but I'm semi stumped --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh! Also, I tried during reboot (remember I'm never getting that token double reboot) update -v, yah it just totally ignored that command like I didn't type it in and wouldn't do any thing, so I'd hit enter again on a blank line the second time and it'd start normally! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- System specs are: Intel 2.5Ghz Quadcore (can't remember the number of it) with 6meg cache Asus P5Q-E with modded BIOS via another member of this site (built in sound card is ADH2000a I think) (built in networking card is a Mavell) 4gigs G.Skill DDR2 1066 ram master GUID boot record Samsung Spinpoint 200gig HDD slaves 2x1TB Western Digital SATA2 HDDs NTFS and FAT32 (windows drives) ATI 4870 (running off of the VESA Driver at 1400x1050) {censored} USB Dell Keyboard, and Logitech Wireless Lazzzzzer mouse. Also I can update to 10.5.3 via the kalyway disk, then to 10.5.4 via auto update without problems. But reformatted back down to 10.5.2 kaylway install disk just to try this combo out for testing purposes ~Jocko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bl003r Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I followed the instructions and installed update, hosed system again (8 times now this week). I get the following at bootup and it just hangs.... I installed 9.2.0 sleep kernel as I'm pretty sure this is the only kernel my machine likes. I've never been able to boot my PC using a vanilla kernel for some reason? Came from a Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD install for the above and can't boot into safe mode or get to desktop.... Any ideas?

thewierdone2000 Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 read post#884 i answered your question? Doh, sorry! I did the fix you sugested, and sure enough it works. I was able to boot into the OS but the graphics drivers were unresponsive (quartz wasn't enabled and they were slow) so I reverted to the ones put in the pre 10.5.5 extensions backup folder. Now after showing the blue screen (after the apple logo with the spinner behind it) it goes to a black screen with a mouse cursor. I am able to boot into safe mode, so I am sure the problem lies somewhere in the graphics drivers. Is there anyway I could get the GeForce.kext, NVDAVH50.kext, NVInject.kext, and NVDAResman.kext included with the 10.5.5 update so that I can manually edit the Info.plist files to get them to work (I replaced them with the old ones so I am dumb) Alternatively if anyone has a sugestion for how to fix the black screen, that would be much appreciated.

Jakweeze Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Poi I know you don't wanna hear this but I'm glad you're having the same issue as me =P means I'm not alone out here -sniffle sniffle- so far I've tried: KalyX.5.2disk ---> combo update 5.5 KalyX.5.2disk ---> Kaly 5.3 update ---> combo update 5.5 KalyX.5.2disk ---> Kaly 5.3 update ---> OSX Update ---> small update 5.5 with using post and pre patches on all 5.5 updates the first 2 resulted in the no double boot, no dock scenario, last resulted in a no boot AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext being a factor killer of booting. the -v in the first two show nothing out of the ordinary, no failed call attempts or kernel panics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaE-V Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Installing the post pkg on the 10.5.5 caused panic and no luck upon forced reboot.
