PowerMac G5 Doesn't Boot to New Image

I'm attempting to install several PowerMac G5s with the same image. All the PowerMacs are the same vintage, and two of the four seem to work just fine. The other two have the same issue.
I created a model machine that's suitable for cloning: installed and updated all necessary software, configured system settings, and then used Disk utility to copy the model system to a read-only disk image. I then used the Disk Utility application to prepare the system image for deployment by Scanning the Image for Restore.
I then restored the image to hard drives with Disk Utility. I placed in the four HDs in the PowerMacs. Two of the PowerMacs booted without a problem, the other two won't boot to the restored image. I tried holding down Option key when booting, and option to boot to the drive never shows up. Also tried resetting the PRAM, but that didn't work either.
Anyone have an idea about what the problem could be?

I've placed one of the cloned drives that I can't boot into in the second HD bay ("B") on a PowerMac G5, and I can see the drive after I've booted into the OS from the drive in the first HD bay ("A"). Ran Repair Disk and Disk Permissions Repair on the non-bootable drive. Each time it came up just fine. No issues.
When I look at the same drive in Startup Disk within System Preferences the drive is not an option to boot to.
Not sure why I can't boot to it, or pick the drive as the startup disk.
I've tried swapping in three different drives that have the cloned image and all of them fail to boot or show up as an option in Startup Disk.

Powermac G5 doesn't boot

Hello,
my old 2x2Ghz PM G5 (late2004) doesn't launch the boot sequence:
- when pushing power button, the blue led turn ON as long as I keep it pushed. If not pushed, it light off but yet the fan are running.
- no chime
- the fans turn on normally and the hard drive start a little to make noise once powered up.
- no video on display, the screen is black.
- the keyboard is not recognized anywhere I plug it.
- after a minute or two of non activity, the fans start to blow full speed (guess its a security measure for saving processor)
I ve done the reset of PMU several time (unplug the power cord then push the button at bottom of mother board)
As i dont have access to keyboard, I can't start on Target mode to check if the HD is failing all.
I ve removed all RAM extensions and left only one pair in slot 1 (J0), and changed the pair to avoid a faulty RAM.
I only have a redlight on motherboard if I don t put back the glass panel.
I ve check the voltage of the lithium battery, and yet its the original, the voltmeter says its 3,6V...
Any ideas?

Satellite L30 10Y doesn't boot with new RAM modules

Hi,
just regged with this forum as I am having a memory upgrade problem.
I have read through a few of the memory problems on here and all users say its a comaptible memory issue. I had Hynix 512MB RAM in my laptop and I purchased 2 x 1GB of Hynix memory both of these are matching sticks to the installed memory but when I installed them my laptop wouldnt boot at all. It would only boot if I had one stick in at a time.
I tried switching top and btm ports and even when one stick was installed it says in XP, Vista and Windows 7 (yes I have tried all systems) 896MB available. I even tried using my other Hynix stick but it only booted and showed the highest stick of 1GB (896MB usable in Windows 7). After reading all the threads I'm just wondering if this is a hardware fault or is there a fix in the Toshiba world or perhaps in the Toshiba world the L series is nearly obselete and not worth the bother to help out the people who unwittingly bought thier merchandise.
I apologise for being a bit down on Toshiba but a laptop which states what it can run and doesnt a company should hold its hand up and say yes there is a fault and help deal with the problem.

You are seeing 896MB because the rest is reserved for the Graphics Card VRAM.
Sometimes RAM can simply be not compatible, due to timing incompatibilities or RAM chip/controller design differences.
What speed and timing is your original RAM?

PowerMac 6100 doesn't boot 7.6

Hello,
My Power Mac 6100/60 AV refuses to run 7.6.1. I installed a brand new system from a CD and everything went fine during the installation, but as soon as I restarted I got this white window and the system frozen with no mouse pointer:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5417175/6100-freeze.jpg
Shift-booting works, so I thought it's an extension problem. I disabled everything in the Extensions Manager - still not working. System 7.1.2, 7.5.5 and 8.1 worked fine on that computer. Why 7.6 and 7.6.1 don't work?

Problem solved!
Here's what I did. I booted from an Apple Software Restore CD (the one that has all Mac OS versions prior to 9) and initialized the hard drive (again) using Drive Setup 1.7.3. This time I only made a single partition. Then I updated the disk driver. This is something I don't remember doing before, at least not using Drive Setup 1.7.3. And finally I installed 7.6 and 7.6.1 from that Apple Software Restore CD.
I tried installing from that CD before and it failed, so I can only assume updating the disk driver using Drive Setup 1.7.3 did the trick. The idea came to me after reading this tech note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1249?viewlocale=en_US
Mac OS 7.6 discs have an earlier version of Drive Setup (1.2.2) so it's possible 1.7.3 did something different to the disk.

Powermac G5 won't boot after new PSU replaced- says no ram installed!!!

I've recently inherited a friends old Powermac DP 2.0 G5 after it died a death. After some testing I diagnosed that that PSU had died in it- something that seems quite common.
Having found some detailed instructions online, I sourced a replacement PSU and set about replacing it. All went well with no major problems. I put everything back together and then powered the machine on. The fans whirled to life but there was no video out. I then noticed that the power light was flashing twice and then a break.
I checked on Apple's website and it was saying that 2 flashed is no ram installed. Yet there are 4 sticks installed - surely these all can't be dead? Has anyone got any words of advice? I'll be gutted if it's the logic board as the replacement PSU was really expensive....help!

Could be the RAM, sockets, Logic board, only way to tell is to swap them out.
Have you done a PRAM reset...

3750x doesn't boot after upgrade to version15

Due to a problem with POE+ i have tried to upgrade the IOS to Version15.0.2SE2, from 12.2.58. unfortunatly the Switch doesn't boot up anymore. It starts to decompress and install the IOS 2 Times, after the Second try it displays "unable to boot" and the switch goes in Bootloader-mode.
When i look at the version i See that bootloader is still the old version 12.2.58.
It seems that the bootloader doesn't geht upgraded and that's why the Switch can't Boot the new Image.
Is there anything i can do to Upgrade the bootloader seperatly?
It's a 3750X48PF-S
Many thanks
Andy

This is a stack of 2 switches, both have the same problem and they are still running old image (as V15 doesn't work)

AP802-BOOT-M bootloader mode and trying to get a new image on there

Ok. Dont ask me how I managed to get myself in this state. Surfice to say I was trying to upgrade an IOS image on an integrated 887 wireless router and its AP802GN access point.
The IOS to LWAP conversion did not go well and now I am in the state where I am trying to get the autonomous image back on there.
so I am faced with either this output.
*Nov 19 22:14:54.423: %SM_LICENSE-6-BOOTIMAGE_CHANGE_TO_AUTO: Boot image has been changed to autonomous image
Please use router EXEC CLI service-module wlan-ap 0 reload
to bootup autonomous image on AP
Which when executed only brings me back again to the same output.
I cannot do a show flash:
it return
So I thought maybe put it in bootloader mode and copy an image across.
So I am at the ap: prompt with no understanding as to what to do next as the AP I think has a 10.0.0.1 address and the router it is sitting in has a 192.168.0.1 address.
I also tried to load a new image when it was in the pr

I hear what your are saying but it would appear that whilst the software 7.0.235.0 which is on my 2106 WLC does support the AP802 the actual hardware of the 2106 does not.
I will raise a TAC case tomorrow with Cisco just to make sure but this excerpt from their website is pretty straight forward.
Cisco 2100 Series Controller
The Cisco 2100 Series Wireless LAN Controllers work with Cisco lightweight access points and the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) to provide system-wide wireless LAN functions. Each controller controls up to 6, 12, or 25 lightweight access points for multiple-controller architectures that are typical of enterprise branch deployments. It may also be used for single controller deployments for small and medium-sized environments.
Caution Do not connect a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) cable to the controller's console port. Doing so may damage the controller.
Note Wait at least 20 seconds before reconnecting an access point to the controller. Otherwise, the controller may fail to detect the device.
Features Not Supported
This hardware feature is not supported on Cisco 2100 Series Controllers:
•Service port (separate out-of-band management 10/100-Mbps Ethernet interface)
•Cisco 2100 Series Controller does not support the access point AP802.

I can't send my new image boot for my DP

Hello guys,
I exlcuded my image boot x86 in my environment.So, I'm try send my new image boot for my Distribution Point but I have the follow error:
Distribution Manager failed to process package "Imagem de Boot_x86" (package ID = XXXX).
Possible cause: Distribution manager does not have access to either the package source directory or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that distribution manager can access the package source directory/distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files with long file names and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length supported by the operating system.
Solution: Reduce the number of folders defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files using a compression utility.
Possible cause: There is not enough disk space available on the site server computer or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that there is enough free disk space available on the site server computer and on the distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files that might be in use by an active process.
Solution: Close any processes that maybe using files in the source directory. If this failure persists, create an alternate copy of the source directory and update the package source to point to it.
Well, I already check all pre-requisits up but persist same error. I can't see where I'm wrong.
Please, any idea?

Please upload the distmgr.log and PkgXferMgr.log to Skydrive and post the link here.

New P55-GD65 System with old already installeWindows 7 doesn't boot, Blue screen

I just built my new system with these specs
1. Core i5
2. P55-GD65
3. Kingston 2x2gb 1333Mhz DDR3
4. MSI N275GTX Twin FROZR
5. 650watt PSU
6. Sony DVD/CD RW+
7. BIOS Ver 1.2
I had a 500gb SATA WD HDD which i used with my old system, with windows 7 ultimate 32bit and windows xp 64bit installed. It was working pretty fine with that system. When i built this new rig, i installed the same HDD with it but wt i now face is that my win7 doesn't boot. Soon after windows 7's logo appears, the system reboots after a short blue screen. On reboot win7 asks for a startup repair . . . when i go for it, it fails to repair. I get the following thing in error;
Problem event name: StartupRepairOffline
Problem Signature 01: (win 7's version is listed here - the same goes for Prob Signature 02)
Problem Signature 03: Unknown
Problem Signature 04: 21201167
Problem Signature 05: AutoFailover
Problem Signature 06: 6
Problem Signature 07: CorruptAcl
Locale ID: 1033
I even tried to go for Repair through Windows 7 CD but in vain.
Can anybody help me here. I really don't want to go for a fresh installation.
Regards,
Bkee
P.S
My XP 64bit works pretty fine wid it although some drivers for "SM BUS Controller" and "Base System Cannot" can't be found.. The problem is only wid win7.

Quote
will give a try to install msi drivers using my old system and then connecting the HDD back to this new rig.... Hope it will work...!!!!
That activity is pointless. You cannot install drivers for stuff that is not there on your old system.
Please do yourself a favour and stop dancing around this whole problem (which seems like a pseudo-problem to me). Putting on a fresh installation of the operating system is the first thing that should be done on a new system configuration. Even if you manage to get stuff working without reinstalling, you are working with a potential driver mess and a confused Windows Registry that may throw problems at you that you may currently not be an issue.

PowerMac G4 Quicksilver Powers On Doesn't Boot

PowerMac G4 Quicksilver 867Mhz (2001)
Running OS 10.5.8. 1.5Gb RAM.
Ny old machine has been running well. Recently after "shutdown" the machine would hang and I would have to powerdown by pressing the power button.
Did some reading on the topic and it suggested that resetting the PRAM might help. I tried this but have run into a problem.
When I press the powerbutton to turn on the Mac, the Power button lights and the machine turns on, *but then the Powerbutton light goes out*. *Normally it would stay on*. The machine then just sits there and doesn't boot up. Nothing happens, and after a while I power the Mac off using the powerbutton.
I did this again with the PowerMacs door open. The main boards little red light comes on, and the fans are working. However I think the Mac Mouse and the keyboard aren't responding/receiving power.(?). (The little red light under the mac Mouse doesn't come on).
I did further reading and tried pressing the "PMU" button, (just once as advised), to reset the "Power Management Unit".
This didn't improve the situation.
As of this writing the PowerMac will power on, the powerbutton light doesn't stay on, and will not boot up. I've read as many posts as I can without finding anything relevant to resolving the issue.
I've tried booting from various disc's but as I said, I don't think the keyboard is responding.
Any suggestions for what to try next, most welcome.

Hi, Robert -
It may boot successfully that way, although the date and time may be off.
The internal battery provides power to maintain PRAM and clock chip settings when the machine is unplugged; as long as the machine is plugged in to live power, a trickle current is used from that rather than the battery (which is the reason for a small spark appearing whn plugging a machine in).
However, not everything is turned on at the same instant - there is electronic switching circuitry that, once initiated via the on button, sequences the power on to various sections. For some reason the presence of a less-than-adequate battery can affect that sequencing negatively. Sometimes removal of a poor battery will allow normal startup.

System doesn't boot kernel26beyond

Since a week or so, my system doesn't boot, unless I press <enter> and the power button a few times during the process.
Once it has booted, everything works fine, but it is highly annoying nevertheless.
it seems to have something to do with loading my hardware.

I am using mkinitcpio already: /boot/grub/menu.lst:
# (0) Arch Linux
title Arch Linux
root (hd0,2)
kernel /vmlinuz26beyond root=/dev/hda4 ro
initrd /kernel26beyond.img
my /etc/mkinitcpio.conf:
MODULES=""
BINARIES=""
FILES=""
HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide filesystems"
I tried removing scsi and sata, since my root is on an ide disk. But the problem persists.
also recreating an image using mkinitcpio or reinstalling the kernel26beyond package using pacman doesn't help.
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong and how this problem might be resolved.
It seems like a trivial issue since the systems basically works fine otherwise. However, I can't figure it out by myself, I have tried for a week.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if this will help you, but I suddenly was having a lot of trouble booting. My system would just freeze with a blinking cursor. I thought it had something to do with my floppy drive because if I changed the boot priority in my bios to boot from the hard disk 1st, the system would boot but would hang for a very long time in areas, and as long as 5 minutes loading uevents. I suspected this was a udev problem.
I issued a few commands to reset udev, thinking maybe recent updates didn't take effect, which did the trick...
# udevtrigger
# udevcontrol reload_rules
After that, everything is back to normal. I'm still learning about udev and I'm still fuzzy about a lot of the techy stuff.

Tecra S1 doesn't boot and hangs at (boot) splash screen

Tecra S1 Model PT831E-107EQ-GR
Problems started a month ago. It randomly didn't booted. After some power off/on tries it finally booted and worked properly. Because it happened more often I've bought a new hard drive (Toshiba 40 GB). I've had Acronis True Image and planned to make a disk clone to the new drive. The problem is that a notebook now doesn't boot anymore so I cannot boot it from A CD nor hard drive. It stops at "In Touch..." logo with "Press [F12] for the boot device selection menu" text and doesn't react any key. I tried to boot with no CD, no hard drive - the same. I also connected internal HD using ATA-To-USB adapter - the same. Does it mean that's not a disk problem but motherboard or other components? Is it possible to enter BIOS before boot selection screen?

Problem solved. There was a broken PCB under the CPU socket. I've found that pressing with my finger and holding CPU while booting allowed to startup the system while releasing the finger caused system hanging and its total crash. Our local service tried to repair it but with no success. Finally two days ago we've found a working motherboard (a used one) for about 200 USD and now I'm waiting for installing it in the laptop. Th regular price for a new one (about 400 Euro) is too much, but 200 USD is OK. I do like the laptop because of its ports (LPT, RS232). It's used for programming and controlling some older devices. Newer laptops have no LPTs nor RS232s and it's not easy to find a working USB adapter because the software we're using is even from DOS times and has hard-coded IRQs for those ports.
Anyway, I hope it'll back from the service fresh and new, and of course working ;)
Thank you for your tips.

Jacek

HP Stream 7-Windows 10 doesn't boot, I can't recovery 8.1 because can't boot from USB-HELP please!!

Hi everybody, I'm new here!
I am (scuse me: WAS) enjoying a Stream 7
Some days ago I tried to install Windows 10 TP upgrading 8.1 with Bing. After some waiting time it succeeded, but unfortunately I forgave to put in the tablet's SSD the hp drivers, thinking they weren't necessary. So touchscreen, WiFi and all the other stuff didn't work. After I collegated via OTG a keyboard and a mouse I managed to use Windows 10.
Trying to install drivers, my fault, I opened an .exe of Realtek (maybe for the audio), tablet asked to reboot and after that I cannot access to Windows anymore.
I tried to boot Windows 8.1 from a USB, but it doesn't boot, the same even if i disable secure boot.
With disabled bitlocker Windows gives this error
In boot option I set these settings
I put the usb in this way:
The Stream doesn't consider the USB absolutely XD
If I enable again the secure boot Windows gives this error (that at 99% is caused by the .exe I installed):
Rebooting the Stream a couple of time with secure boot it goes in a menu (where touchscreen works) where there are a lot of options to reset Windows, but none of them works. If I try to format from this menu it asks for my account's password, but it doesn't accepts the mine :/
If I try to open the recovery (from volume minus button when it starts) it gives this message:
Waiting for help,
Thank you for your patience!
This question was solved.

Hi everyone. I think I have found a solution to this problem. Short background story, I too tried to install Windows 10 (10049) via Windows Update but I was never successful - got stuck at around 30% for more than an hour. I tried to restore to 8.1 but it gave me that 0xc000000f error. Luckily I had made a recovery image to USB before updating to Windows 10.
Please note that by doing this method, you will obviously lose your data.
Here's what you'll need:
- Recovery USB (if you don't have one, grab it from this link and I thank you that person from another post). Follow the instructions, this is just basically clean, format to FAT32, set primary and active, and then drag and drop the files and folders from the USB folder to the root USB drive. This particular recovery is from a 5701 model, there is actually no difference between Stream 7 models in terms of hardware, but software is configured differently (different language setup/format) depending on the country/region it's sold.
- OTG cable
- Powered USB hub
- USB Mouse and Keyboard
- A moment of your time
1. Plug in the OTG cable to the tablet, and then plug in the USB hub to power and to the OTG. After that, plug in the USB mouse and keyboard and Recovery USB to the USB hub.
2. Boot the tablet to BIOS by holding down Power + Volume Down at the same time, until you reach the Startup Menu.
3. Press F10 and navigate to System Configuration > Boot Options. In this menu, we'll have to restore the settings to default.
So if you have disabled Secure Boot, you first need to Clear All Secure Boot Keys and then Load HP Factory Default Keys. Then enable Secure Boot.
Make sure UEFI Boot Order is also default to as follows: OS boot Manager, USB Diskette, USB CD/DVD, Network Adapter.
If you did not make any changes, proceed to 4.
4. Be prepared to go back to the Startup Menu, because as soon as you press F10 and hit Yes, the tablet will automatically restart. So press and hold the Volume Down button after you hit on Yes.
5. Press F9 and select Boot From EFI File. If you've done the recovery image ghosting correctly onto the Recovery USB, you should see two entries. One should be RECOVERY and the other may depend (it could be SYSTEM or No label). Select RECOVERY, and then select bootmgr.efi.
At this point the tablet will boot off from the USB and will bring you to Windows Recovery.
6. Select your keyboard layout, and navigate to Troubleshoot > Reset your PC.
If the drive partition/boot manager is not damaged, it will ask for a recovery key. You can actually skip this step and hide the numpad, revealing the option Skip this drive if you don't have the recovery key anymore, or just really want to start anew.
If the drive partition/boot manager is damaged, the Reset will proceed and will ask you to select a target operating system. In my case it was Windows 8.1.
7. The next screen will be about Reset your PC telling you what's going to happen. Tap Yes > Yes, repartition the drives > Fully clean the drive > Reset.
The tablet will now do its thing and restore to factory default.
After restoration, a BIOS screen will come up asking if you want to clear the TPM keys. Select Yes, and this will create a new key for the restored installation, bringing you back to a fully factory default tablet.
Notes:
I recommend not installing a generic Windows 8.1 ISO that is copied straight to the USB drive using the Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool or RUFUS. They won't be compressed or the same as WIMBOOT, which will take up more storage space than stock recovery.
You could actually install another version of Windows 8.1 on the tablet, assuming you know what you are doing (ie. making a WIMBOOT image).
You could also actually install Windows Technical Preview directly, again, assuming you know what you are doing.
This is just a guide to help you try recover your tablet from a failed Technical Preview installation. I hold no responsiblities over your actions.
What I recommend is that use 8.1 for now, and wait for the official release (or at least a more stable Technical Preview release for this tablet if you can't wait that long) of Windows 10.

Kernel26 package now doesn't boot [FIXED!]

I grabbed the latest kernel pkg. didn't do lilo -v
and now it doesn't boot at all! [stop at the beggining of ..........]
well shouldnt at least boot the last one? [or automatically do lilo -v]
plz help me now
thanks

after a lot of testing and luck I was able to boot arch again [update lilo that is]
what did I do: [i did all that because lilo refuses either to write the map file, or protests about /dev/hda or /dev/discs/disc0/disc {depending if it was Slack or Arch}]
I booted with SlackWare 9.1 Rescue/Install CD {which has vfat}
and which plays without devfs [so /dev/hdb8 was my root arch]
I mounted my arch root
mount -t reiserfs /dev/hdb8 /tmp
I change the /tmp/etc/lilo.conf to:
boot=/dev/hda
vga=792
default=windows
timeout=300
lba32
prompt
image=/tmp/boot/vmlinuz26 # important change
label=arch
root=/dev/hdb8
read-only
other=/dev/hda1
label=windows
/boot [the slackware's cd's one] links to /mnt/boot so I did
mkdir /mnt/boot
and then tried to play with lilo a bit
. /tmp/sbin/lilo -C /tmp/etc/lilo.conf -m /tmp/boot/map -M /dev/hda mbr -v
with the above command I have a boot.0300
in /mnt/boot directory
so in the end I just did
cp /mnt/boot/boot.0300 /tmp/boot/
which overwrote the BAD AND UGLY AND OLD [and at last] boot.0300 with the new one [that containted info about the new kernel]
I prayed to Buddha a bit, and then reboot. I there chose arch and OMFG! i was able to boot it
a) I love LILO
b) I love Slackware
c) I love Arch [though I sumbitted some bug reports about the Rescue CD]
mostly I love the fact that I lost some hours do make it work, but now it works as before. On the other hand, I always remember myself trying for days to fix the windows, and then give up [or if i could hack it in a way that would work, then it would be giving me Blue Screens [now dark blue in win2k/xp] of DEATH]
so I must say I love the Penguin
yeahhhhhhhhh
thanks to everyone that helped.
I hope the pkger of kernel would soon add the WARNING [sumbitted bug for that too] and if anyone forgets it or wants to play [like me] then I hope for him that he reads this post, and make it work [i could work with Arch's Live CD too, not sure]
that's all baby.
another success story yeahhhhhhhhh!! :$

New imaged machines fail to complete reboot after install

New imaged machines fail to complete reboot after install of 10.4.9 image
Running off both 10.4.9 Server and a 10.3.9 Server machines imaged from the same disk image and different disk images fail to reboot after imaging is complete. All machines go through various stages of reboot some initial most all the way to waiting for finder to boot up on desktop. Nothing is wrong with the items, installed the entire image is installed if you looking at the machines via firewire. All .nbi sets were created under 10.3.9 (to avoid 10.4.9 problems) all disk images with Disk Utility all .nbi with 10.3.9 Network Image utility.
Anyone any clues been driving me nuts for about a week and I have 500 ibooks to image.
Also the reference machines for the images are same ibooks that will be imaged, so its the same platform.
various Mac OS X (10.3.9)

All is the same for me except I used a 10.4.9 server only to create the disk image using Disk utility, and all other work ison a 10.3.9 server. Greay or blue screen on reboot otherwise machines look fine.
I am having this same issue....
Order of events as follows...
Build image on source mac (10.4.9)
Create image on server for netinstall from source mac
(10.4.9)
Set Netinstall image on server via netboot (10.4.9)
Install Netinstall image on target mac via netboot on
server (10.4.9)
Installs fine and says successful.....Apon reboot all
i get is the grey screen with the apple and spinning
icon....Sits there and doesn't change....
On further inspection I notice that there are things
that are missing off target mac
very strange....Sounds like a broken System Image
Utility to me
