Erf, I got a black screen on reboot.

 

------

EDIT

------

 

Seems to be the HEX string for 8800GT 512Mo

in com.apple.boot.plist

 

(because it boots in VESA without it)

 

 

Some help will be very apreciated.

I had the same pc since leopard and never got a kp on my geforce 7600gt

using efi on boot plist. since I udated to 10.6.2

and got the geforce (6.0.6) kernel panic

 

I'm currently using mac server 10.6.1 server any suggestions appreciated

 

Same problem here!

 

Boots fine, but after loading desktop (Dock, Finder, etc...) a KP about NVDAResman, IOPCIFamily, etc... (64bits)

I just did 10.6.2 via Sofware Update and my EeePC 1000HA is no longer booting in.

 

Just to let you guys know:

 

Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz

GMA 950

2GB RAM

Snow Leopard 10.6.1

 

Everything was running like a top until about an hour ago, when I deployed the update. It seemed to update fine, however it failed to boot back up after doing the update. Chameleon RC2 showed up, but no boot up strings seem to allow me to continue into 10.6.2.

 

So as of right now, I'm recommending Atom processor people to hold off on the update until a fix is found.

just use the old Darwin 10.0.0 vanilla kernel and it works fine ;)

Seems to have stopped restart working for me - it was always a bit temperamental anyway -sometimes would take an age to restart, sometimes instant, but would always restart. But now it goes to a black screen and just hangs, I have to manually power off and back on again....

 

I'm using openhaltrestart.kext - should I be trying something else?

No problem with openhaltrestart , try evoreboot or move the kexts on extra to a backup folder to see what's causing the error

here on my GF's macbook 3,1 santarosa mid2007 i was unable to load 64bit kernel...also with x3100gma new 64 bit version kext... try to force it in com.apple.boot.plist...but nothing.....

i see there's no 32bit only kext in system profiler...icon7.gif

 

anyone can help me?

sorry for english :(

Why do I get a black screen on 10.6.2 boot ?

This vanilla install worked fine on 10.6.1

-----

EDIT

-----

I deleted the gfx strings from com.apple.boot.plist

 

and I can now boot in VESA mode with 10.6.2

 

 

So I assume that my hex string is bad.

Here is what I did to get my update working.

 

1. Make kernel backup using OSX tools.

 

2. Download and install update-got initial KP

 

3. Boot 10.6.2 using the backup kernel.

 

4. Once booted restore the kernel.

 

5. Reboot
