Kernel Panics during startups - cannot boot anymore

First: Sorry for my bad english - i hope you still can understand...
The facts:
- MacBook 2,0Ghz - 2gb Ram.
- After 8 weeks --> random shutdowns. In OSX, in Bootcamp, in any application, even during booting OSX
- Replacement of the logic board, after suggested by AppleCare
- After that: OSX instable. Totally. Safari, DVD Player, Firefox, Adium.... any application crashed almost every 5 minutes
- Even sometimes: Kernel Panics. One time even at the login screen
--> I tried a reinstall --> Archive & Install
- DURING the installation of DVD 2 --> Kernel Panic.
- Sucessfully installed OSX in the second try
- OSX seems to run fine - I do the update to .7 trough SoftwareUpdate
- During reboot --> Kernel Panic.
- and now: during EVERY reboot (short after the apple on grey background) a Kernel Panic. I took a picture of that:

And now? I am sad! Crying! I don't know what to do anymore.. I'm writing now in Bootcamp-Windows - this is still running...
ANY suggestions?

Hi, Hauldhagen. Welcome to the Discussions.
See my "Resolving Kernel Panics" FAQ. This FAQ includes step-by-step instructions for identifying and resolving some of the most common causes of kernel panics.
My FAQ is a roadmap: start at the beginning and work through to the end, following the instruction in the order specified, including the "If all else fails..." section if a cause or resolution is not found in an earlier troubleshooting step therein.
Good luck!

Kernel Panic / G4 dp500 / Cannot boot currently

Machine Config:
10.4.8
G4 DP500
1.5 gigs ram.
Internal ATA133 PCI controller card (Sonnet)
Four internal hard drives. My current 4-drive configuration:
Three 200 gig drives are connected to the internal ATA133 sonnet card, and out of those three, just one was made to be bootable with 10.4.8.
The fourth drive (160gig) is connected to the on-board ata33 connector, and is bootable with 10.3.9 on it. Presently I cannot boot from either drive
I installed the Sonnet ata133 card three months ago to expand the drive capacity. I wanted to "see" hard drives larger than 127 gigs, which is the limit if using the onboard ata33.
Everything has been working fine for 3 to 4 months after I installed the Sonnet card, and three internal drives. But about three days ago, my computer was hard-frozen when I went to use it. No mouse movement etc. When I rebooted, I received the Kernel panic black screen with its resulting verbosity.
I had a spare internal drive laying around that was preconfigured with an OS on it. So fearing the Kernel panic was from the Sonnet controller card, I installed my spare drive to connect from the mother board ata33 connector. I was then able to boot from my spare. after that I was able to repair my boot drive that was attached to my Sonnet card. The one that was initially corrupted by the Kernel panic.
After rebooting successfully to m, I decided to leave my spare boot drive attached the on-board ata33 connecter (just in case the kernel panic happened again)
Well, it did happen again. And now I can't even boot from my spare now. Its as if the kernel panic is destroying the directories of my boot drives!
Specifically the volume header wraps.
In addition, I can't even boot from Disk Warrior or my OSX install disk. The screen just hangs at grey. So, I have no more spare boot drives available, and I cannot boot from cd/dvd. The cd/dvd drive is attached to the internal on-board ata33 like my spare is.
I know that heat will often cause a hard freeze. But will it also cause kernel panics upon reboot?
As it stands now:
When ever I try to reboot, a black screen will display unix command line text describing kernel panic and the last line is"
"Panic: we are hanging here."
This seems like a hardware issue. But why are my boot directories becoming corrupted? At this point, maybe its over heating. I have four drives now stuffed into the G4 with ribbon cables all over the place and a vent fan installed into one of the unused PCI slots.
I haven't installed any new hardware lately.
I upgraded to 10.4.8 and the panic still happens.
I have 30gigs of itunes, 20gigs of iphotos, 40gigs of imovies, 10 gigs of mail, etc. My back up system was using SuperDuper to copy my USER folder to another internal drive, so I know I have a backup, It's just that I cannot access it. If I can recover my data, I'm going to go out and buy a G5, transfer my data, and be done with it. If I can't recover my data, then I will be forced to live a life of quiet desperation. My wife will leave me if I've lost her itunes collection
BTW, what is a good program to back up to 8.5 gig DVD's? Can I make large 20gig .DMG files and segment then into 8.5 gig portions? I no longer want to rely on internal backup. I would feel better knowing that my back were on dvd's locked in my fire safe. When did I become so dependant on computers?!
Losing sleep.

It may not help, but it's worth a try to reset the PMU. See Mac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial
When trying to troubleshoot problems, disconnect all external devices except your monitor, kbd & mouse. Do you experience the same problems?
May be a solution on one of these links.

Logging Kernel Panic during startup.

Occasionally I have Kernel Panic while the Loading Modules stage. Can I redirect the error to a file (it is quiet large)? I don;t have a serial port to connect a terminal.

I've been trying to find some way to capture panic info without a serial port, too. The best thing I came up with was kdb/kgdb. It will page through the panic and stack dump, and let you look at the kernel log buffer in memory. I just looked, and I think it's running at that point in the bootstrap.
kdump/kexec might be another possibility, but I don't know about loading a panic handler that early..
If you find anything, post back. I'm interested, too.

can any one help me out here, tomorrow I am going to boot it into target disk mode and install from a G5 onto the powerbooks HD doing a CLEAN install and then I am going to try booting it from a DVD and doing another CLEAN intstall just cause I dont trust a firewire install for some reason. I would like to avoid all this mess if possible. ANY HELP PLEASE, either respond or email me tend0 at mac dot com. thanks

haha oh man thanks for startin slow with me, but we are passed that tested RAM, start up items, prefs, tried makin a new user account, as I stated before I can not boot from a DVD/CD.. that was one of the problems so I cant run anything that involves tageting the main HDD while its mounted. I have also repaired perms, ran fsck, tried booting up DiskWarrior(didnt boot from the CD), etc. if any one knows this perticular kernel panic string and can point out what the conflict is I can resolve it but other than that I have ran the run of the mill check to see if everything is in order procedure again and again.

Frequent kernel panic during boot up

Hi,
I am having frequent kernel panic during system bootup. It takes atleast 3-5 attempts for the machine to boot-up without a panic. It is not consistent. I have disabled dropbox and removed firefox and chrome which I suspected was causing the problem.
Any idea what could be causing the panic? Once the system boots up, it some times stays up for a long time before a panic happens again.
The error report is below. Let me know what other details are required to trouble shoot this issue.

Thanks for the pointers and suggestions. The system was up and running with out any panics. So I decided to upgrade to Mountain Lion. I was able to download it through App Store and start the installation. Everything went through fine and finally when it had to restart, it took a long time and stopped at the grey screen showing the prohibitory sign.
After waiting for quite a long time decided to hard restart the machine. Same issue. So used the option keys at bootup and went into disk utility.
Verify disk permission threw up some errors. Then Verify Disk started throwing up errors and stopped in between and suggested to run Repair Disk.
When I ran the Repair Disk it threw up an error mid way and said:
Error: Disk Utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restor your backed-up files.
I ran Repair Disk again and it went through fine. No issues this time. Ran fix permission option as well. That also went through fine. Then restarted the system.
No use - It still shows the prohibitory sign and progress circle....just stays there....
Any advice on what next?
Thanks,
Sudhir

Why do I get a kernel panic during large downloads?

Since I got my new MacBook Pro, it's been doing kernel panics during large file downloads.
Getting rid of Chrome seemed to help but today the panics are back. I just started up in Safe Boot mode and the downloads (two files, approx. 500 and 300 MB, respectively) completed downloading without incident.
While I'm checking out my startup items, has anyone else seen this problem? I didn't have this problem with my Core 2 Duo.

I took a look at the dump and saw a reference to an Elmedia Player kext. I remembered that in another thread someone mentioned this giving some trouble, I uninstalled it. I'll keep an eye on it to see if the problem comes back.
Here's what I've got:

Kernel panic at startup and impossible to reinstall SL

Hi
I've recently bought the new iMac with SSD.
I've upgraded the Ram, adding 8go Crucial to the 4go existing.
The first time, I started very well, very quickly.
After that, I installed W7 on my bootcamp partition. It went very fine also.
After having installed W7, I booted on the Mac OS X partition. This was the first time I've got a kernel panic at startup.
Fine, I thought it was a mismanipulation when I installed W7. So, I wanted to reinstall SL.
I tried, 2 or 3 times, but I've always had this message while installing "The installer could not copy the necessary support files".
I managed to boot Mac OS in Safe Mode. I tried to installed SL directly from the Safe Mode, and I got another error : "Impossible to read the installation disk".
So I tried to make a UBS Stick bootable image of the SL installation disk : I cannot mount it "checksum error".
I hardly think now that the problem is coming from the RAM, but instead from the SL disk.
The installation disk is new, it was the first time I was using it.
Now, I am able again to boot from the mac os partition without having chaned anythink, but having booted once in safe mo
Guys, could you help my with that ? How can I get a new disk ? How can I be sure that the RAM is OK (W7 is working fine and SL also right now).
Thanks in advance

Sorry misunderstanding, my bad. By new I meant never used before.
It is the brand new iMac 27" SSD. So it supports up to 16GB of RAM.
I am also sure of the model of RAM I ordered.
I wanted to remove the new intalled RAM, however, I can't : it's way to hard. When I pull the tab, I just slip.
I can boot to the Install DVD (So, SL 10.6.8). I can go up to the beginning of the installation. It evens begins to copy files, and I always get the error at the same moment.
The same thing happens when I try to install SL from the Safe Mode of my existing OS. It begins to copy file until I get "unable to read the disk, bla bla".
I hope it was only a minor disk corruption, but I would like to be sure. How can I test the RAM and the Installation Disk ?
I tried to make an image of the installation disk, but when I try to mount the compressed image, I get a checksum error...
thanks again for your help

DVD drive broken, Mac G5 having kernel panics at startup

After nearly 5 years of steady, trouble free use, my G5 iMac started acting up a few days ago. I get what I think are kernel panics at startup. I am usually able to get it running after a few restarts but I am worried. My DVD drive became unreliable a month after my 1 year warranty expired. For some reason it won't start up with the install disks that came with the cpu but will bootup from my DiskWarrior DVD. I tried rebuilding the directory with DiskWarrior but I got the blue screen when it was almost finished. I've decided to do and Archive and install because I'm sure my problem stems from programs I installed recently. Is it possible to do the Archive and Install from my Intell Powerbook which is running the same version software. I've tried it several times, inserting the iMac install disk on my PB with my iMac connected in Target Disk mode, but I keep getting the message that the software can't be installed on this computer (the PB). Is there another way I can perform an A&I, I don't have enough space on my iDisk to use SuperDuper to create a disk image. I'm almost at the panic stage here since I use my computer for work and I'm afraid it won't start up at all at some point.
I've performed all the usual steps, repair permissions and used Disk Utility on my Firewire connect PB to repair the disk. One odd thing is FontExplorerX all of a sudden quit on me two days ago (which has never happened in the 4 years I've used it) and told me to download it again, which I did.
Message was edited by: e. jones

Hi e. jones, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Other way around, with the iMac's Install Disc in the PB, boot the PB into T mode, boot the iMac with the Option key held down, wait for the Install Disk in the PB to show up as a boot option on the iMac.
But I think you have more serious problems. And, first you need to move some things off the iMac to make room for an A&I, you really need an external FW Drive right away.

Kernel panic on startup

Kernel panic occurred on startup last week. Since then have tried the following-
Removed all periferals apart from Apple keyboard and mouse.
Tried each of the 512Mb ram chips on their own.
Booted from and ran successfully-
DiskWarrior - clear
System Disc, Disc Utilities - clear
Tech Tool Pro - clear
Apple Hardware test - clear
Ran Memtest on ram, came out OK
Wrote zeros to hard disc then installed a new OSX 10.4.6. Still get kernel panic on startup.
Checked LED's on logic board while starting up from internal start button. 3 light up before kernel panic. Not sure if this test indicates good logic board, power supply or not?
Can boot OK in safe boot mode. Again should that indicate logic board and hard disc OK?
Help?

If all three of the LEDs light up, that means that power is getting to the places it should, but even if the logic board is getting power, that doesn't mean that it is functioning properly. You have performed all the tests you can (thanks for listing them) and nothing shows up. Call Apple and make an appointment to take it in and have a genius look at it, or, if you have Apple Care, call them and see what they suggest.

Kernel panics on startup on a MB late 2008

Hi everyone.
After reading dozens of threads about kernel panics I couldn't find any appropriate post.
So you see, I've got a unibody MacBook late 2008 and as the thread name states I'm experiencing kernel panics on startup. The weird thing is, these panics occur totally random and I can't induce them. Usually I have an apple keyboard, apple mouse and a WD 1TB drive (TimeMachine backup) connected via USB plus an external monitor and magsafe power. Even after disconnecting all that stuff I receive kernel panics.
I haven't had any kernel panic during normal operation so far. As soon as I get the system up and running nothing happens. They just keep coming every second or third startup.
There are 9 crash reports in my L/Logs/Diag.Reports. You can see the last kernel panic report here:

I'm not an expert at reading panic logs but nothing you posted jumps out at me. Since you still get the panics with everything disconnected I would try repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility and reinstalling Mountian Lion.

-The PowerBookG4 starts up when selecting the local hard disk via Startup Manager (press and hold Option key); PowerBookG4 starts up when inserting the install disk 1 and selecting the local hard disk via Startup Manager (press and hold C key); PowerBookG4 starts into safe mode (press and hold Option+Shift keys).
I have verified and repaired disk permissions and the disk itself. This behavior occurs consistently with or without external devices connected.
I can work in my applications ok and everything appears to function as expected once I get the PowerBookG4 booted, but I am concerned about how long it may continue to function - got a lot to do!
Advice? very appreciated thank you! -ben

Understanding crash logs isn’t easy and it’s hard (sometimes impossible) to decipher the cause of the problem. Take a look at Apple’s Crash Reporter document at http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2004/tn2123.html
Also look at Tutorial: An introduction to reading Mac OS X crash reports
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060309075929717
Kernel panics are usually caused by a hardware problem – frequently RAM, a USB device or a Firewire device. Since you've disconnected external devices, USB & Firewire don't appear to be a problem. Are you using an external mouse?
Have you added RAM recently? To eliminate RAM being the problem, Look at this link: *Testing RAM* @ http://guides.macrumors.com/Testing_RAM Then download & use Memtest & Ramber.
Do you have an Apple Hardware Test disc? Running the Apple Hardware Test in Loop Mode is an excellent troubleshooting step for finding intermittent hardware problems. It is especially useful when troubleshooting intermittent kernel panics. If Loop Mode is supported by the version of the Apple Hardware Test you are using, you run the Extended Test in Loop Mode by pressing Control-L before starting the test. Looping On should appear in the right window. Then click the Extended Test button.The test will run continuously until a problem is found. If a problem is found, the test will cease to loop, indicating the problem it found. If the test fails, be sure to write down the exact message associated with the failure.In some cases, RAM problems did not show up until nearly 40 loops, so give it a good run.
Look at 12-Step Program to Isolate Freezes and/or Kernel Panics

Can't get past kernel panics on startup

Like the title says, I'm unable to get past kernel panics on startup. I know next to nothing about the technical side of computers, so I'll just explain the whole process of what I've gone through. Earlier today I got a kernel panic after waking my computer from sleep. I restarted and everything was fine. I probably should have looked in to the cause of the panic, but I just went on using the computer as normal. Later, I returned to the computer, woke it from sleep, and got another kernel panic. I restarted, and my computer got to the Apple logo and gray spinning wheel when it froze. No kernel panic, just a frozen wheel. So I shut it down, restarted it again, and this time I got to just a gray screen (I don't remember if the Apple logo had shown up or not, but there was no spinning wheel). It hung on that screen for a while, then the fans started running like they were trying to take off a jet engine, so I shut it down. I tried restarting it once more, and it got to the spinning wheel screen when another kernel panic happened. I restarted the computer, and tried this a few more times, getting kernel panics each time. So I let it rest. A few minutes later I tried it again. This time it got even further, and I was pretty hopeful that I'd at least get the computer running again. It got past the gray spinning wheel, to the blue screen that usually shows up before the "cosmic wallpaper" and login screen. At that point it hung on that blue screen, and the jet engine sound started up. Now I take out my 10.5 instal disc. I back up with Time Machine, so I'm just going to hope reinstalling and restoring from Time Machine works out. I stick in my 10.5 disc, hold down the 'c' key and start up the iMac. Eventually it gets to the spinning wheel screen and a kernel panic. That's where I am now. Any help? I have a big paper due on Tuesday, so there's a ticking clock.
Thanks a lot
Mike

Hi - I have a similar problem here, running snow leopard 10.6. I am also not technical.
I went out & left my mac on, and when I got home it had switched itself off and on restart I got to the grey screen + Apple icon. Unfortunately I have never backed up my data!! Tried starting in safe mode (holding Shift key) and get the following message every time I try this:
panic (cpu 0 caller 0x560d25): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"APCI\".n" e/SourceCache/xnu/xnu_1504.9.37/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1389

I have tried booting from the Leopard disc but can't do a repair as it doesn't seem that it can find the Mac hard disc. Have also tried starting holding the <option> key and get a Hardisc icon displayed with an arrow beneath, and when clicked a progress bar appears for maybe 30 seconds, then disappears & it just carries on in grey screen mode with spinning wheet & Apple icon.
I want to know if I just have to concede that I have lost my data and need to reinstall the OS, or it could be worth taking to a Mac repair agent to try to retrieve it

I'm getting a kernel panic on startup after restore hd

Long story made short...installed Google Music to use with my new phone...next day Mac running slow, left it running while I was out, came home to frozen screen...booted in safe mode and clicked off everything that was running in background. Tried to reboot and it kept shutting down when reaching grey screen. (I orginally had leopard and upgraded to snow leopard) got my OSX (leopard) install cd and booted to disc, disk utilities and check disc...originally would only let me verify, which failed, then unmounted and was able to get repair disc...unable to repair. I erased hd and then restored from my time machine backup, now when I boot I get kernel panic on startup. I'm running of external hd which I formatted and installed leopard essential software. So my question is, is my HD shot? Are there other step I can take? I can't afford to bring this in to someone. This is most of what my screen says when I boot:
Panic(cpu 1 caller 0x47f5ad): "Process 1 exec of /sbin/launchd failed, errno 8\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1504 . 15 . 3/bsd/kern/kern_exec.c.3145
Debugger called: <painic>

and the a list of numbers....
any and all help would be appreciated to help me resolve this

Bump, can anyone help?

Kernel panics during TM backup

I have been having problems with kernel panics during Time Machine backups and I would like to find out if others have had similar experiences. If this is a problem unique to my configuration, then I need to do more work. If others are having the same issue, then perhaps I just need to wait until a fix is issued.
Some background, I am using TM on two computers, an early 2006 iMac and a first generation Aluminum 15" Powerbook. On the iMac, TM is now very reliable, on the PB, it will ALWAYS kernel panic at least once during a large backup, sometimes 2 or 3 times before it manages to finish the backup. Since I have been playing around with backup disk configurations, I've made several initial backups, so I've also seen quite a few kernel panics, but ONLY when TM is running a large backup.
Are you hit with kernel panics during TM backups? I see some discussion along those lines in this forum.
The most recent initial backup was with Spotlight disabled and it DIDN'T panic. This was unusual. As TM is adding files to the backup disk, Spotlight is busy indexing the new files at the same time. It is possible that the two are not playing well together on the lower performance machines, such as this 1.25 GHz G4. By adding the backup disk to Spotlight's privacy list, Spotlight is inhibited from indexing the backup disk.
- gws

For information, this problem appears to be due to some unique problem with my particular computer.
I had been having 2 or 3 kernel panics every day. Finally, I did a Safe Boot and the panics ceased completely. Not one in the last month. Looks like it was some kind of corrupt data that the Safe Boot cleaned up.
