Hi -- could someone tell me how they're booting to TTY?
I keep trying to reboot and hit ALT+F1 or CTRL+ALT+F1 but nothing seems to work.
When/what are people doing to get there?
I'm really desperate to try this fix -- I need to be able to install some
database clients through APT so I can clear do
As I explained above (in the admittedly long thread), I had the same
issue with my MBP, but was able (instructions above) to establish what
version of the firmware I needed (it was the previous model's, in my
case) & flash that to fix the problem.

My MBP's a 5,4 -- there wasn't any update for that, either, but earlier in
this thread I described how I found out what firmware I needed (it was 5,3)
and how I installed that & fixed the issue.

Just to let you know, I blessed the firmware update for the 5,3 (as that's what
"About This Mac" told me I had installed), and my MBP 5,4 works again.
About to re-partition and try to install Ubuntu again -- sucker for punishment,

Ah -- if you go to 'About This Mac', you can see the firmware that was last

Cheers,
