OS 9 upgrade, then system won't boot

I have a iMac 333MHz from 1999 with OS 9.0 on it. I went to apple updates and downloaded the upgrade to 9.1 (i think) I installed the upgrade and it called for a reboot.
When I rebooted the screen came up with command line message:
Apple iMac Open Firmware 3.0.f2 built on 04/23/99 at 14:31:03

ok
0>_ (this is the blinking cursor)
In the middle of the window is the folder with the mac face on it, then the folder flashes with a question mark on it.
None of the commands I know work, I am stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tom, and welcome to the discussions.
FYI, although most of us cruising this forum have a variety of experience with OS 9, you might have better luck posting in the OS 9 forum. But on to your problem.
Here are two commands you can try. Type them in as is, followed by the return key:
reset-nvram
reset-all
The iMac should automatically reboot after processing the second command. Let us know if it does any good. If you don't get any addition response here, give the Mac OS 9 forum a try.

Journal doesn't start after latest upgrade; result, system won't boot

... and I'm not sure how to get any useful information. I can boot from the Arch installer and mount my /boot and / partitions, but when I chroot into the mounted root dir and run journalctl, there is no output after the last good shutdown (which all looks normal; there wasn't anything unusual in the pacman output either, no warnings, and I didn't --force any packages).
The only output I can get is "A start job is running for Journal Service" (and then it shows the timeout state) during boot. If I wait long enough, the Journal Service is eventually restarted, and continues to not start.
I'm guessing there's a flag I can pass in to the grub.conf, or some other technique, but I'm stuck at this point. Anyone have any suggestions?
-TIA

You can use RecBoot to get it out of recovery mode or try doing a manual install, as outlined in link below.

Upgrade from snow leopard 10.6.8 to montain lion on a iMac system won't boot getting a crossed out circle

Upgrade from snow leopard 10.6.8 to montain lion on a iMac system won't boot getting a crossed out circle

Clean install OS.10.6.8 update it completly. May be you ignored some firmware update.
I have two incedents.
My thunderbolt port stopped working after upgrading to ML 10.8. I booted from external 10.6 , 10.7 still didnt work. Then i clean installed 10.6.8 and ran software update it updated the thunderbolt firmware and all is well now. This firmware update for some reason didnt show up in ML 10.8.
Secondly , when i upgraded my Brother's Macbook from 10.5 to 10.6.3 it would install but stuck with crossed out circle. Then i downgraded checked for update found an efi update , then the 10.6.3 worked fine.

[SOLVED] Switch to systemd - Now system won't boot

I saw that todays update upgrade included the installation of systemd. I looked the wiki and did the necessary changes (I already had made the /etc/hostname etc. files). So I added the
init=/bin/systemd
line to grub and now my system won't boot. I get an error saying something about syslog service not enabled and then a black screen. I can boot my machine fine without the "init=/bin/systemd" line but I want to run a pure systemd system since Arch is moving to it anyway. In the wiki it mentions to install systemd-sysvcompat but it conflicts with initscripts it says. What am I doing wrong or missing?

Is LVM handled automatically by systemd? The reason I ask is because I have the USELVM= set to YES in rc.conf.
I made the permanent transition to systemd and did not start alsa at all - sound works fine - so I never bothered with the alsa-store/alsa-restore service files at all - it just works! Also dbus gets handled by default in systemd so you don't need any starting of dbus service at all... it just works.

System won't boot-no chime.

Despite repeated attempts and resetting the CUDA button, the system won't boot when start button is pressed. In the first few seconds it seems to make normal sounds; but no chime and settles into simply fan noise. This is true even if using C (with an Install CD). or Shift key. Is there anything else I can try? (I know it's actually a G3 B&W Motherboard; but I had nowhwere else to post it)

I do not remember exactly what was happening when it stopped. It may have been executing something , hung up, and wouldn't respond to the Command-Opt-Esc or I do remember one incident when it was booting up and stopped when it was partly thru "searching for local discs.
I checked the ref. article and tried to measure the voltages on the power connector. I was never quite sure what pin was what, since the colors did not jive with those in the article. At any rate 2 were approx. + 5 V (one was 4.85), the rest were essentially zero (I believe 1 or 2 were about 300 mv). I did notice that when the power connector is reconnected and start up is attempted, 3 little green lights come on on the motherboard. One goes off after a while.
I have tried the old Sonnet upgrade and have tried reseating all the RAM modules. All to no avail.
The Hard drive and all other parts seemed to be working fine prior to the failure.

Btrfs: System won't boot anymore after unclean shutdown

Hi,
I have a problem with my ArchLinux (kernel 3.19.2-1-ARCH).
I have my root partition as BTRFS and no /boot partition.
After an unclean shutdown the system won't boot anymore.
GRUB loads the kernel and the kernel starts but it hangs saying: Mounted /dev/sda3 on real root.
Then, I have to start a Live CD and do:
btrfsck /dev/sda3
After that the system boots correctly.
I've tried adding fsck to the HOOKS in the mkinitcpio.conf file and in fact it tries to fsck the filesystem (but with BTRFS, fsck.btrfs doesn't work...)
What can I do?
Thanks

I'm also having this problem. I tried booting up the netinstall image to debug it, but I can't mount my btrfs volume from there either: mount just hangs. After a while, the kernel goes:
[...] INFO: task mount:612 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[...] Not tainted 3.19.2-1-ARCH #1
[...] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
[...] INFO: task btrfs-transacti:636 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[...] Not tainted 3.19.2-1-ARCH #1
[...] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
From this post I guessed that I might just need to wait so that I could defrag the volume once it was mounted, but it's been hanging for over 15min now (the message above continues to come up periodically).
Like the OP in the thread I linked to above, my btrfs volume is inside an LVM volume (which is on dm-crypt). Don't know whether that's relevant.

System won't boot. INIT: No inittab file found Enter runlevel:

After the latest update that changed how intel ucode is updated, my system won't boot.
I think I missed a line when I edited "/etc/grub.d/10_linux" and ran grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
I can't run grub-mkconfig from another machine, as it uses the live kernel info.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I'll have to reinstall

It seems to me that you've an old Arch version. inittab is deprecated AFAIK.
What is the Arch iso version?
That would probably be mid-2012 at the very latest I think as that's when I remember completely moving over to systemd...
@SyXbiT: Are you using the current Arch install ISO?

System won't boot up

Help please. I have a kt6 delta running an athlon 2700+ xp chip, 512 mb ddr 400.
When I set the fsb at the correct speed for the chip (166) the system won't boot hard drive led lights up constant. dvd drive and cd-r drive each run but the system won't boot. system seems to run fine at default and 133 mhz but the chip is incorrectly identified in windows (xp pro sp1) Any Ideas whats wrong?

Hi - I have the same board with the same processor, I have not problems rebooting after changing the bus speed. But I have had problems rebooting after adding in any card PCI or AGP. the system seems to have trouble clearing the Cmos, I would try clearing the CMOS with the JBAT. it doesn’t always seem to work but I have had some luck, though I have also pulled out the battery a couple of time too..
Good luck!

New GTX 770 in existing system won't boot

So I thought I upgrade my PC with a brand new MSI GTX770. The system just won't start. Screen shows B2 in lower right hand corner and a solid cursor upper right. After a while the cursor starts blinking and B2 dissapears. Still a black screen. No possibility to enter bios, no bleeping, all fans are spinning.
When I put back in my good old MSI GTX580 all is fine again.
I am an advanced (MSI) user but never ever experienced this before. Highly frustrating and surely no plug and play experience. What to do? Underneath you'll find my systems components:

PS: I did not manage to find a similar problem on this forum let alone a solution to it. I tried BIOS A vs BIOS B to no avail. Somewhere else I read I may have to flesh the new cards BIOS but how to do so if I cannot even get it to work?
Any help is welcome!

Today I received the following I was like really???!!!!
"Dear Sir/Madam,
Thanks for contacting MSI Technical Support Team!
Regarding your concern, there are many possibilities on why the system could
not boot up. Therefore, would you kindly please refer to the suggestions below to
troubleshoot the issue?
1) Unplug all the components and devices on the MB, and then reinstall the CPU,
RAM (one piece), VGA card and power supply only. Please add some thermal
gel on the CPU, and then reinstall the CPU fan correctly and tightly.
2) Clear CMOS (How to clear CMOS, you could refer to the manual), and then
enter bios to Load Optimized Defaults->Save & Exit.
3) Try to boot up the minimum system. If it still cannot boot up, please change
another more powerful power supply for a try;
4) If the problem still persists, please change another RAM with different brand to
try.
5) Please confirm the processor installed is compatible with the MB as well as
the BIOS.
6) If these attempts above does not work, we have to suggest you contact your reseller (The place you bought this MB from) and have them test the MB completely for you to check if this MB is faulty or not, then ask for some help.
If the reseller for some reason can not help, you could try to contact MSI distributor from below http://www.msi.com/service/wheretobuy/ near your place or MSI office from below http://www.msi.com/about/contact-us/
Best wishes,
MSI Technical Support Team!"
So adding a MSI card to my MSI Board mean I have to brake down all of my system, even remove my CPU (running fine) and buy some thermal gel. And while I am in the store buy a more powerful powersupply (mine already meets the specs) and/or ask my reseller to help me out checking if my motherboard (working fine) is faulty?
Well I just RMA'd my 770. So much for plug and play; even MSI parts are not compatible. A real bummer.

System won't boot. Could really use some help here.

I have the K8T-Neo FISR2 mobo. When I set up the system, the SATA drive was set up as drive F: (onto which I installed Windows XP Home). I added a 2nd SATA drive later, and it became C:. Both drives are plugged into the Promise SATA ports. The system has been running fine for about a year now.
I was having a problem with a program not running properly. I stopped the process and tried to restart it, but it didn't work. It was a program that drives my Logitech gaming keyboard (with LCD screen). After I rebooted, the system would load windows, then after Windows was loaded, it would load up a program when I went into it and crash. It looked like it would crash on PXHELP.DLL (something like that). I booted up into safe mode, renamed the file so it wouldn't load, and now it won't boot at all. It starts to show the Windows logo and then instantly reboots. I can't even get into Safe Mode as it does the same thing.
I tried booting from an XP CD to do a repair, but when it boots, it doesn't see the hard drives. I downloaded the Promise drivers, put them onto a floppy, and load them as Windows is booting from the CD. It seems to load the drivers, but when I choose to do a repair (or even a new install), Windows comes back and tells me that I have no hard drives attached to the computer. I just can't seem to get Windows to see those hard drives!
I could really use some advice here......

Quote from: Tiresmoke on 04-January-06, 01:36:35
Try swapping the Drive Cables. You may have one that is not engaging as well as it should.
When I let the PC boot up like normal (without booting from the CD), it sees the drives and Windows tries to load, so I don't think it's the cables. I'll make sure they're reset, but I really don't think that's it.

System won't boot after update

After installing the latest system update (from Leopard 10.5.1 to 10.5.2) on my Dual Processor PowerMac G5, I was able to restart then within 2 minutes a freeze. I couldn't force quit...had to power done.
Upon powering on, my screen hangs on the gray screen for about a minute (with the clockwise powering up status symbol), then it shuts down on its own. It won't boot into safe mode. In single user mode, it tells me there is a "disk0s2: I/O error" ... Is my hard drive dead? I've tried resetting the PRAM, resetting the PMU button, unplugging all 3rd party devices, but to no avail.
I'm hopeful I can recover files somehow. Where should I proceed? I'm not sure exactly how the internal drives work. Can I, for instance, unplug and remove the top internal drive and place the 2nd internal drive where the top one was and see if i can boot from that drive?? Thereby determining which drive has the issue? Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks so much!
Sean

Can you boot off the leopard DVD and run the disk utility disk verification on the drive? If it's a hardware problem then there's probably not much you can do. If you have a TM backup of your system then you should be ok, since you can replace the drive and then restore your system to it from the TM backup.

System won't boot to USB Recovery Media

I have a Satellite P55-A5312 with pre-installed Windows 8 (upgraded to 8.1), Intel i5 processor and 6GB Ram. I created a set of DVD recovery media and a USB Flash (Toshiba brand 32GB) recovery drive. I set the boot order in BIOS to USB, then DVD, then HDD. Secure Boot is enabled.
Question I have is, how can I verify that the reovery media will boot if needed? If I power on the laptop, neither the DVD nor USB will boot and it goes directly to Windows, which kind of makes sense. If I then restart, the DVD recovery media will in fact boot, but the USB recovery media won't boot. Even if I restart with F12 and choose USB as the boot device, the USB media will not boot. The only way I can get the USB recovery media to boot is if I disable Secure Boot.
I find it hard to believe that USB recovery media will only work if Secure Boot is disabled. What am I doing wrong?
Ken
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sure would be nice to know what the recovery media boot behavior is suppose to be with Secure Boot enabled...
With a little luck, Peter will stop by and let us know.

System won't boot up constant spinning colored pinwheel

I installed Leopard on my Mac last night. After it finished I received the message that the install was successful. I noticed that my desktop items were not showing up so I restarted my computer. When it boots up now, I still don't get my desktop items. My icons all appear in the navigation bar at the bottom, but the little colored pinwheel spins and won't stop so I can't access anything.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Bill

Welcome to the Apple boards:
First, I trust you made a backup of your previous system.
Did you repair HD and permissions prior to install?
Did you choose the default install (merge)? If so some of your older or non-compliant 3rd party apps may cause problems.
If you had any of these non-compliant apps in your "Login Items" list, that might be the problem.
Insert the Leopard DVD and reboot. When the system starts to boot (after the black screen) hold down the "C" key and you should wind up in the DVD. Skip past the Language screen and top left you will see a menu. Select Utilities and Disk Utility and repair HD and permissions.
Remove DVD
Then reboot in the safe mode (hold down shift key at boot) and at the login screen click restart.
See if any of this helps. No guarantees.
Your profile tells us little of your computer. More data would be helpful.

[SOLVED] System won't boot (boots fine in fallback mode)

HI guys,
I just rebooted my headless server for the first time in a while, but it won't boot up.
I just sits at this screen:
Please note the system does boot using fallback mode.
(also, nothing to do with the latest boot problem - systemd-sysvcompat is installed and boots fine in fallback)

I recently purchased a Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L300S0 300GB Serial ATA 7200RPM Hard Drive w/16MB Buffer.
It is my first SATA drive ever so non the less I am a newb. I want to use it as a non Raid media storage device while my primary IDE remains my boot OS drive.
I plugged the SATA in to the sata one port and powered it. I enabled the SATA in the bios with RAID disabled. When the system boots up it does the memory chech and lists all the IDE devices. Then it says "Detecting IDE drives..." and just hangs there. The new drive spins so it definatly has power but occasionaly it make occasional clicking sounds.
Once it actually booted up and windows detected it. I decided to reboot it just to play it safe but it never would get past post screen again. I can boot up the system normally when I unplug the SATA cable.
Please help I need to know if I am doing something wrong or I should RMA the drive. THANK YOU!

Boots perfectly with 1 pata, adda sata to sata 1 or 2 or 3 or 4
Boot stalls in bios at Raid setup. Tried enable raid with no drives enable , system booted twice, turned off overnight, then failed to start the next day. Will only restart with a cold reboot. Hot reboot produces a long BEEEEEP & power is on but nothing happens no post nothing.
SATA drive was taked from a working system (ECS 755a - AMD 64 3000 - PATA 200 / SATA 200), configured 40/160 40=OS Winxp 64 / 160 = data. System will not boot if this is the sole drive connected.

OS 9 upgrade, then system won't boot
