Sure, I did fsck several times, but it still said something about an "overlapped extent allocation (file 107114d)" yet still claimed it was repaired successfully. Not long ago, I had to completely repartition the disk because of a similarly-sounding problem of "overlapping nodes." Could this be happening again? Sound like a IDE problem, or a physical disk problem?
Anyway, here is the panic message: ... Prior to this tons of "can't determine this" or "can't allocate that" messages Well, what do you know, no panic message this time. But it still gets to the blue screen and then stops. With verbose on, it churns out messages until it pops to the blue screen in which it stops. This has got to be a video thing. The 10.3.2 update has ATI video drivers in it. That must be it. -----Original Message----- From: Unsupported OS X [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter da Silva Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 11:34 AM To: Unsupported OS X Subject: Re: 10.3.2 > Thanks. I'm at the prompt, but I don't know where to begin. There was a > panic, but it didn't make any sense to me. The first thing to do is use the "fsck" command to check and fix the system disk (it should be spelled out a line or two abover the prompt), then remount the root partition read-write (mount -u /). When you're done, you should shut the system down with the "halt" command. But in between, if you're not UNIX-savvy you'll need to give us some more information as to where to look. Which means the panic message. If you can copy that down and send it in, as well as a few lines above that, it would help. -- Unsupported OS X is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Unsupported OS X list info <http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/unsupportedosx%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
