[POWERPC] Cannot switch tty consoles during install on iBook G4

So no matter what I do, I can't seem to properly switch TTY consoles during installation.
If I press FN-ALT-F[1-5], I end up at a console with a blinking cursor and nothing else. If I try to get back to where I came from (TTY1 I guess), I can't - I'm stuck at the screen with the blinking cursor. The only way I can get out is with CTRL-ALT-DELETE-FN or by restarting my computer.
Anyone know how to resolve this? My installing keeps failing during the package install and I can't get to TTY5 to figure out why.
Thanks!

I ran into this recently, and it drove me up the wall! After a lot of trial and error I figured out the correct order in which to press the keys.
1. press and hold <option (alt)>
2. press and hold <fn>
3. now press the desired function key
As long as you keep holding <option> + <fn>, you can keep switching consoles. If you get the blinking cursor on a black screen, that means you pressed <option> + <fn> simultaneously - simply let go of both keys, then press them in the above order.
Happy switching!

  • Cannot access web console after install.

    Hi all.
    The last day has been my first encounter with Oracle VM and it seemed to go fine until I finished. I have installed the latest VM and management tools on a bare bones machine (spec below) but cannot access the console via http://machine:8888/OVA.
    I have tried installing using https and without and can gain access to neither the https 4443 or the http 8888 yet I can ssh into it quite easily. The dmesg only really complains that there are no ipv6 routers (understandable) but the xend.log in /var/log/xen does show something strange at the bottom:

    The spec of the machine started out as:
    Athlon 64 x2 3600+
    4Gb Ram
    2 Nics (1 built in Broadcom & 1 Intel MT)
    1 NVidia super duper gt9500
    3 Hard Disk, (1 IDE 150gb , 1 SATA 80 & 1 SATA 150 - the IDE is master boot with system on it)
    After a few attempts, I removed Video and the Intel card.
    The install was done via CD and never complained and in this last install, it only had 1 NIC to choose for the management console.
    On this last install I also chose top use none https and therefore the system says I should gain access via http://machine:8888/OVA
    I do notice though that in some tutorials, it states alternatives to OVA like OVS etc, all of which I have tried.
    Oh and if I netstat -an, it shows it's listening on port 8888.
    many thanks, I'm guessing it's some a bit silly that I've over looked but from the way I read the install instructions, you only need the VM and the management Disks to install and you should be able to access via web console?
    BTW, systems I'm using as clients to access range from, opera, firefox (Soalris), ie 6,7,8 & 9 from Windows and Windows server. All I get is Internet Explorer Cannot Display This Page.
    many Thanks, Mark

    Did you install the VM Manager software as a VM hosted by OVS? Make sure the VM is running. It is probably named something like OVM_EL5U4_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM. Use "xm list" on the OVS server to see which VMs are running.
    If it's not running, then run "xm create /path/to/vm.cfg" the path is probably something like /OVS/running_pool/OVM_EL5U4_X86_OVM_MANAGER_PVM/vm.cfg

  • OS crashed and cannot switch to console model when logout from gnome

    after update gnome to 3.2,  when I logout login account or switch user with gnome. the os dead.
    I have to reset pc to reboot it.
    should this isskue relate to gnome update?

    What do you mean by "dead"? For me, dead is complete system freeze. Are you thrown to a TTY console? Is it just a blinking cursor? What's the problem?

  • Cannot start Bonjour service during install

    Cant install itunes because you get that stupid cant start Bonjour service error?
    Here is what I did to get it installed:
    1. In iTunes - Help -> check for updates
    2. Tools -> download only. Download the updates
    3. Tools -> open download folder.
    4. Install the Bonjour msi
    5. Install iTunes msi
    Seriously Apple, fix your software. If this fails to start then the installer should be allowed to finish!

    During the last update (not the first time I updated) I received the message "cannot find bonjour.msi". I have tried downloading, but that fails and freezes my internet access. I cannot access itunes (the message is "This is only valid for installed software") and I cannot delete itunes via control panel (cannot find [if I remember correctly] "appleupdater.msi"). I cannot even find an email address to ask Apple about this (maybe I missed it somewhere). So, I cannot use, download, delete, or update itunes. Any helpful suggestions?

  • System cannot find file specified during install officejet 6500

    I started my HP solution center software today to do some scanning over my wireless connection.  I received a message box indicating I needed to reinstall the original software that came with my OfficeJet 6500 wireless 709n printer.  when I started the software it recieved the message 'system cannot find file specified'.  No information was given on what file it was looking for.  I then downloaded the software from the HP site (OJ_AIO_6500_E709_Full_Win_WW_140_408.exe) and encountered the same result.  I hookup up my printer via USB and it appeared to go looking for driver updates.  After that the HP solution center software would run but would only connect to my printer if the USB was connected.  Still cannot run the printer software set.
    I recently upgraded my windows 8 64-bit to window 8.1.  It worked before that.  This is not the only software that was broken by the process.  Any help on how I can re-establish my wireless connection to my Officejet 6500 would be appreciated.  
    I also tried the Microsoft 'Fixit' solutions but they are not available for windows 8.1 :-)...

    Hello All,
    Try using the scrubber built into the CD or download.
    From original CD installation:
    1. Insert CD into drive, and then cancel the installer.
    2. Open  "Computer", and then right click on the CD drive and choose open.
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. Run the L3uninstall.exe (near the bottom of the list).
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    8. Restart the computer.
    9. Download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard.
    10. When it comes to the screen asking to accept the terms, don't yet. There will be a few options near the top of the Window. I need you to choose "Connection settings" or "Internet connection usage settings" (It will be something similar to what I just stated). It will give you the options to turn off automatic updates, I will need you to change all of these options to "Off" / "No".
    11. Once they're set to "Off" / "No", continue with the installation like you did before.
    If software was downloaded and extracted to your system:
    1. Type %temp% in the run field
    2. Look for, and open the folder starting with 7z (Example: 7zS2356)
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. Run the L3uninstall.exe (near the bottom of the list).
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    8. Restart the computer.

  • Since I installed Lion, I cannot switch from previous to next page in Chrome nor Firefox with the "swippe" on my mouse.

    Since I installed Lion, I cannot switch from previous to next page in Chrome nor Firefox. Swipping on my mouse, it switches screens instead of the previous behavior.  How do I set it back to the function "previous/next"? Thanks

    page switching is now a two finger gesture but I have heard this does not work in Chrome and Firefox, they will need an update...

  • I upgraded from elements 10 to 13 today. When PSE 13 was installed, I uninstalled PSE 10. I also own Lightroom 4.4. However, I used to be able to switch from LR4, to PSE 10 now I cannot switch to PSE 13. (Photo Edit In Edit in Photoshop) is grey. Why?

    I upgraded from elements 10 to 13 today. When PSE 13 was installed, I uninstalled PSE 10. I also own Lightroom 4.4. However, I used to be able to switch from LR4, to PSE 10 now I cannot switch to PSE 13. (Photo>Edit In>Edit in Photoshop) is grey. Why?

    You might also ask for help in the Lightroom forum.
    What I have found is that when I upgraded from PSE12 to 13, my Lightroom 5.6 still selected PSE12 in the list of external editors. I had to use the preferences menu to select the right PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe in the Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13 folder. I got a message stating that Photoshop Elements was already selected as external editor. In that message box, there is a button with the option to 'change anyway', which I did. Now LR correctly opens PSE13 when I choose Edit in Elements.

  • "WRITE SAME failed. Manually zeroing." error during install or boot

    Hello everyone!
    Since the lasts kernels (I'm almost sure it happens since 3.9 because 3.8 worked fine) I can't boot on Archlinux anymore. This error floods my screen and I can't do anything, and because the new Archlinux iso (june 2013) comes with 3.9 kernel it now also happens during installation. Fortunately, I saved the may iso so I still can install archlinux and switch during install to LTS kernel but this is not a good solution. I can't find a solution online, some people have this issue but it seems to be a bit different everytime.
    I use Archlinux on a server, with hardware raid : Dell PERC H200a with LSI SAS2008 according to my BIOS. According to http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.7, the WRITE SAME SCSI command "allows the same block to be efficiently replicated throughout a block range. Only a single logical block is transferred from the host and the storage device writes the same data to all blocks described by the I/O (commit)". Here is the exact configuration :
    - DELL® PowerEdge R210 II
    - 1x Intel® Xeon® E3 1220 V2
    - HDD: 2 x 1 To SATA2 RAID
    - RAID: Hardware, Dell PERC H200, (Raid 1)
    So my first problem is that I can't find online if my server is capable of this command (but I don't think so) and then the other issue is that I want to know if I can disable it. I found kernel patches for this issue :
    https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1898441/ and https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1982051/ (the first link seems to be a better solution).
    Then, I checked in the kernel source of 3.9 and I think that this patch isn't implemented (there is no device_write_same_capable function for instance). But kernel patching is not a really good solution, if I have to patch my kernel everytime the main kernel is updated...
    After some research, I found that my hardware RAID driver seems (I'm not sure) to be the kernel module "mpt2sas", so I checked both may and june isos of Archlinux and it's the same version (14.1) so it shouldn't be the problem.
    Does somebody can help me on this issue ? I don't really know what to do now.
    Thanks for reading, if I forgot something or if you want more informations, ask me!
    Bye.
    PS : My English isn't very good, sorry.
    EDIT : I found a part of the solution ! It seems to be an issue with the kernel that doesn't detect properly if my disc is capable of doing WRITE SAME command.
    So I have to write "0" in the file "max_write_same_blocks" under /sys. But the problem is that /sys is renewed every boot so I don't know how to make my changes permanent. I made a systemd service file, it almost works, but this solution isn't nice : the parameter is applied lately so errors shows at the beginning and this is not really easy to set up. I prefer a solution like "sysctl" but it seems that it only controls parameter under /proc/sys and not /sys, am I right ?
    Moreover, I tried two other things : Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.9.4 works and Archlinux iso with 3.8.10 has max_write_same_blocks > 0 and it also works... So I don't really understand this issue. Maybe in 3.8 the parameter max_write_same_blocks has no effect (or not the same as in 3.9) ?
    Here is the systemd file that I made to reduce the issue :
    [Unit]
    Description=No WRITE SAME
    After=local-fs.target
    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'echo 0 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/host0/target0:1:0/0:1:0:0/scsi_disk/0:1:0:0/max_write_same_blocks'
    RemainAfterExit=no
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    This is not a good solution, see my next post. I don't delete it in case you want to compare.
    Last edited by rfnx (2013-06-02 15:26:50)

    I found a solution to disable the WRITE SAME command. That doesn't answer all my questions but it solves my issue. I was looking for a file like "sysctl.conf" but for /sys parameters : you already can do that in Arch, just create a file that ends with ".conf" in tmpfiles.d and add one line per parameter you want to modify. This file will be loaded early at boot.
    To disable it in an existing Archlinux installation, add in you file the line :
    w /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/host0/target0:1:0/0:1:0:0/scsi_disk/0:1:0:0/max_write_same_blocks - - - - 0
    Read the manpage of tmpfiles.d if you don't understand this line, it depends on your configuration and you can't copy it.
    Then reboot and no more error !
    If you want to disable it during the Arch install, just change directly the value you want in /sys. You have to do it at the beginning before mounting partitions, for instance just after choosing your keymap.
    Bye.

  • Can not administer Catalyst 2960 switch via console

    Hello,
    I want to configure my switch via console cable, the switch boots up normally, and there are no configurations present on the switch.  However, anything I type does not appear on the terminal client.  I used several terminal clients (TeraTerm, PuTTY, HyperTerminal), all latest versions as well as different PCs.  I even forced the switch to rommon mode, still, anything I type does not appear on the terminal client.

    After the last line, I can not type any command at all.  I encountered this on three 2960 switches that we have here in our laboratory.  Can anybody help me on how I can get access to the switch via console?
    Thanks in advance.

    Have You Check your console Cable.

    If u are using USB to Serial check driver are properly installed.

  • Wireless Works during install.... Does not work after install.

    Hiya!
    I just finally finished semi-installing from live.  it's exciting.  I'm stuck at cli trying to get wireless to work.
    it's really weird.  First-  I only have wireless (it's from my downstairs neighbors).  I used it DURING the install process- downloaded all of the packages, etc etc. 
    But when I start up my computer, I get a [FAIL] by network (it does not start up).   However, if i # ifconfig wlan0 up, the wireless turns on. 
    iwconfig does not work
    and I cannot scan for networks...
    During install, I was able to see the names of every network. 
    There isn't any sort of password for the router I would like to connect to (and connected to before); it's just a linksys. 
    My wireless card is intel 5300 and I'm almost certain I installed the 5000 driver package. 
    Thoughts?
    Perhaps I should go to sleeeeeeep..

  • Adobe AIR fails during install

    21.5" intel iMac, 10.6.1, 4GB RAM, CS4 Premium new install - upgrade from CS2.
    CS4 successfully installed to laptop.
    iMac <easy installation> timed out several times during install, the first time trying to install Adobe AIR. System setup transferred from previous machine, including CS2 apps, settings, etc.
    This is a replacement iMac for a defective unit returned 5 days ago. Was able to install CS4 on defective machine minus transfered user info, applications, data. (Prior to return to Apple CS4 was deactivated, SN removed. Subsequent launch of PS into trial mode confirmed.)
    After quitting the app installer several times discovered the dialogue box below was hidden by installer box. Clicking "OK" allowed process to continue.
    CS4 is now installed and updated, but I don't know which apps the dialogue box was referring to, or if this requires a solution.

    I did not find automatic graphics switching, but after several failed attempts of trying to install it, it eventually installed.

  • Number of errors during install

    i keep getting this error message during install of itunes
    the installer has insufficent privileges to access this directory: C:ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\StartMenu\Programs\QuickTime. The installation cannot continue. Log on as Adiminstrator or contact your system administrator.
    i did the right click run as adiminstrator no good
    also i get this error message as well
    Warning 1909. Could not create Shortcut Apple Software Update.Ink. Verify that the destination folder exists and that you can access it

    I fixed the problem by uninstalling all of the itunes and apple components including bonjour. Then, i was able to delete the the program data file \itunes. then, i simply downloaded the new software and voila it worked. I also synced my iphone and it worked just fine! Finally, but what a royal pain in the as_!!!!
