Wallstreet start up question.
I am running OS 10.2.4 on my wallstreet. When I start up I see the little happy mac. Then my computer restarts with the grey screen with dark gray apple. Why is this? I thought it was to start just with the apple? Any ideas? geno. http://www.barbaloot.com AIM: BARBALUT when you die, says a dark-haired woman at the next table, they can make you into diamonds now.

It seems from your description that when it starts, it tries to boot from OS 9, but at some point fails and then restarts in OS X. Did you set your startup in the 'Startup Disk' pane in 'System Preferences'? -Laurent. -- === Laurent DaudelinDeveloper, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA * Usual disclaimers apply * fear and loathing n.: [from Hunter S.

OK, so, I don't remember clearly from your description, but are you able to boot into 10.2? If so, did you check that you have your OS X system selected in the 'Startup Disk' preference pane in 'System Preferences'?

From what I understand, the wallstreet is an 'old world' machine, meaning that the boot rom is just that, rom. New World machines (like my TiBook) actually store the contents of the boot rom on disk (correct me if I am wrong.) Since this is an old world machine, the os 9 loader begins and loads the software that boots os x. On my Wallstreet, this sequence of Happy Mac - Apple Logo only happens after a PRAM reset, if this is happening to you every time you shut down, your PRAM battery may have gone south. -Andrew -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
