Locked boot drive in a 520c
Hi, y'all! After unpacking a '.hqx' file into a new folder on the boot drive of a 520c, the system locked up. Now, when I boot the 520c, no sign of the new folder and the boot drive shows as being locked. How do I unlock it? Willi -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Not sure if this is the right approach but starting from the basics; Hold the shift key down on bootup. Starting with extensions off. or; Boot from an install disk. Any change? Can you now do a search for the offending folder? Did it accidently slip into another folder? Did anything get put into a startup folder? Are there any new extensions in that folder? -- Adrian -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
