As mentioned, CPU L2 cache failure is apparently common on the Lombard series, and leads to all sorts of odd problems.
My question is - has anyone used third party cache control software to disable a faulty cache, and did that work to get rid of the errors? Yes, I know having no L2 cache isn't the hot tip for a speedy 'Book, but the alternative is worse. Also noted, the OP was trying to install an OS from CD, so if the L2 is kaput 3rd party solutions wouldn't work in this case. dan k ................................. http://macdan.n3.net/ carracho://dankephoto.dhs.org:9700 hotline://dankephoto.dhs.org:9500 ................................. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
