Verbose boot und shutdown

Hello,
as mac-newbie i am really interested if there is a possibility to activate some kind of "verbose"-switch regarding the boot & shutdown process.
in best case permanently.
"apple+v" is just for temp. use i guess
searching this forum i found the following link:
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/h/348
but it would be nice if someone good verify the usage
best regards
fidel

finally:
part one of the o'reilly article is working as a charm on my intel mac. so the permanent verbose thing is working as supposed.
part 2 is heavy, as boot-time enlarges from my point of view, and sometines it just looks like the system is freezed.
just to mention if someone else has similar questions.
best regards
fidel

  • Verbose Boot. How to get rid of it?

    My Mac Pro boots with a bunch of what look like Unix line-items showing in white monospaced text on surround lines of black.
    How did I do that? How do I turn them off?
    At one point it seems to be saying that it is in dev mode with a "verbose boot."

    I would first try resetting NVRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    If that doesn't fix it, take a look at the last commands in this article: http://www.cnet.com/news/boot-argument-options-in-os-x/

  • Boot and shutdown time is much slower

    Running a MB Pro with 4gb of RAM. The boot and shutdown times are considerably slower. Any ideas?

    Do you have the machine set to auto-login? Or does it boot to the login window? If it is set to auto-login, how long does the machine take to get to the blue screen? How much longer does it take to get from the blue screen to active desktop?
    How long does it take to shut down? What applications are running when you shut down the machine?

  • Error in verbose boot

    AppleBCM5701Ethernet: 0 0 setFixedSpeed - logic error, speed any?
    That error keeps showing up and slowing down the boot. Appears at the very end of the verbose boot. Is this a problem, i rarely use ethernet, but is it broken?
    Thanks in advance!

    I would suggest that something in the startup items may be a cause of this. Something you have installed, perhaps. Startup with the Shift key pressed gives Safe mode and this disables such items. A search for lsd, apart from the obvious mind-enhancing links, suggests that the Laboratory for Simulation Development might be connected. Does that ring a bell for you?
    There is also a Live Sequencer that sounds more up your street, but that appears to be Windows software. Or perhaps something in the Unix installation. I cannot find anything in the system processes that might link to this.
    As to bad sectors (perhaps not); but memory is something that sometimes rears its head, depending on where it came from; and even then memory can go bad.
    If it happens again, a look at logs might reveal something: look in Console. It might be useful to post any such logs here as someone (not me) might be able to identify a process. As a point, do you have any devices attached when starting up?

  • MacBook Pro boot or shutdown getting slower and slower, is how is it, how to resolve?

    MacBook Pro boot or shutdown getting slower and slower, is how is it, how to resolve?
    MacBook Pro开机或关机越来越慢，是怎么回事，如何解决？

    Open your disk utility and verify your disk permissions - if errors are found - repair them and restart your macbook when it's done the repairs....
    see if that sorts it out for you...
    good luck

  • Boot stalls/repeats - verbose boot reveals stall on Bluetooth

    I have a problem with my MacBook 2 GHz running 10.5.1 - the boot up stalls and keeps repeating itself until eventually it will continue and boot up.
    It gets to the gray screen with the circle graphic...sticks there for about 2 minutes and then shuts down and starts over. It usually does this between 5 and 10 times before it will continue and finish the boot.
    Here's what I've done to try and solve the problem:
    1) Reset PRAM - no change
    2) Reset system controller - no change
    3) Remove battery and put back in - no change
    When I run a verbose boot (command + V) the boot stalls on a Bluetooth controller entry. I can't find any reference to that.
    This started happening after I ran system updates a couple of weeks ago. The unit functions correctly in all other areas. Once booted up you can put it to sleep and resume with no problems.
    Ideas?

    Your disk is dirty, clean it with a bit of rubbing alcohol and a soft clean cloth to polish.
    Hold c and try booting from the disk now,
    if it doesn't work, order a replacement, either a 10.6.3 retail (no free iLife, comes faster) or machine specific 10.6 disks (for machines that originally came with 10.6.4 or later you must use these)
    When you install, use Disk Utility to Erase with Security Option > Zero the new drive, it's better for it that you do, maps off failing sectors ahead of time.
    last resort to install is making a 10.6 boot USB on another Mac, in case the optical drive is bad

  • Verbose boot after imaging

    Having received a fresh batch of NVidia MacBooks I've remade our default image and attempted to image the MacBooks. However once the imaging is completed they all boot in verbose mode. Other than this they operate perfectly. Our deployment script blesses the disk once the imaging is complete and I've tried blessing both the volume and the folder but it still boots in verbose mode. I've also tried disabling verbose boot in the NVRAM (it's not enabled anyway).
    The only way that I've found to fix this is to manually select "Macintosh HD" in the Startup Disk Pref pane. So I guess the question is, what else is the pref pane doing all of a sudden?

    You're close to understanding the issue.
    The problem you're having is the result of the boot.efi file in System/Library/CoreServices being out of date. For some reason, Apple doesn't update this when system updates are installed. The newest version is instead located in /usr/standalone/i386/boot.efi.
    When you open the Startup Disk Pref panel and then select the hard disk, the pref pane appears to update the copy in CoreServices with the one from /usr/standalone/i386/
    So, there are a couple of solutions.
    1) on your master image, open the Startup Disk Pref pane and re-select the boot disk, then create your base image. This will force boot.efi to update, and when you deploy the image to those new systems, they will no longer be in verbose mode.
    2) copy the version in /usr/standalone/i386/ to System/Library/CoreServices as part of your imaging process.
    No matter how you decide to do it, you must get the latest version of boot.efi to System/Library/CoreServices

  • Verbose Boot

    Hello,
    I have recently come across an eMac that presents a long boot sequence during startup. I take it this sequence is usually hidden by the boot screens, but not in my case. I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled OS X 10.4 as a part of taking new ownership, and hoped that would solve the verbose boot sequence.
    The Mac boots just fine, it is just showing all of the process each time. How would one turn this off?
    Thanks

    How would one turn this off?
    Restart the computer with the Option, Command, P, and R keys held down, and release the keys when you hear the second startup chime.

  • Verbose boot shows 'ReadyKeyAction' error

    i'm having boot problems. consensus seems to be that there is a 3rd party software conflict.
    genius bar suggested deleting 3rd party plist items.  i deleted only some of them for software
    i no longer use or recognize. they also suggest a verbose boot to show errors. all i could see
    was ReadyKeyAction. does anyone know what this is, what it does, how or should i repair/delete it?

    also getting 'InitHelper' as error

  • Spinning Grey Wheel - won't boot, with verbose boot kext can't load errors

    Just solved a problem with an iMac that wouldn't boot for a customer, and thought I should share the solution as well. None of the previous discussions covered his exact situation.
    Problem: after a power failure, the iMac would not boot. It would just sit with the Apple Logo, and the grey spinning wheel.
    We found that it would boot into safe mode. Likely in the first boot to safe mode, any file system errors had been fixed.
    Trying to boot regularly again had the system just sit with the grey spinning wheel again.
    At this point the customer brought the system in to me.
    I was able to verify no hardware errors (Booted from external hard drive, and checked the System.log on the customers drive, no I/O errors)
    Re-checked that there were no filesystem errors (there were not)
    Did a repair permissions hoping for a quick fix - no luck.
    Did a verbose boot, saw that at least 6 kext couldn't load including AppleFileSystem.
    Forced a Kext Cache rebuild hoping that it was just a cache issue.
    Next verbose boot revealed that the 6 kext couldn't load because IOStorageFamily could not be found.
    rebooted to external drive again. Checked iMacs hard drive, IOStorageFamily.kext was in the Extensions folder. Replaced it with a known good IOStorageFamily.kext from the same OS version (in this case, 10.6.4)
    Repaired Permissions so the new kext would be set as a system file again.
    (If you do this as the root user with Terminal commands, you wouldn't need to repair permissions, but I just used the GUI method)
    The iMac could now boot normally (first boot is a little slow as it rebuilds the kext cache)
    Alternate Possible Fixes:
    1) Time Machine - boot from Snow Leopard DVD (or original install disks) and restore to a save before the power failure. (after checking the disk for filesystem problems)
    2) Using the Snow Leopard DVD (or original install disks) do a re-install of the system (In 10.5 and earlier, this would be an Archive and Install) This replaces the possibly damaged parts of the system. (again, after checking for filesystem problems)

    I posted the answer in with the original problem.

    ok, so I think I have foud a solution that works for me.
    I created this file and added the following lines
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
        Section "Device"
            Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
            Driver      "intel"
            Option      "AccelMethod"  "uxa"
          EndSection
    I have shutdown 3 times and it has booted to the desktop everytime. When I remove this file and go back to sna it reproduces the error of the black screen.

  • Immediate boot after shutdown on 845pe max2

    Got my brand new PC with a MSI 845PE MAX2 mainboard (MS-6704) in an AOPEN casing. Problem: if i select shutdown in WinXPpro the machine shuts down (even power-led is off). And then immediately it boots/starts again.
    What could this be? I already removed all unnecessary cards, network connection, modem, second HDU, unplugged all USB devices. Turned off APM in the BIOS setting. Changed to an older type keyboard and mouse. Still same problem. All lastest drivers installed, lates BIOS (AMI 1.2) installed. All Xp service packs extra patches are installed.
    Any suggestions? Switchg from S3 to S1 mode in ACPI standbystate doesnt make any difference. Turning off ACPI is a bad idea, as the machine wont boot XP anymore.
    Pressing the on/off button the machine shuts down as expected and doesnt turn itself on anymore. Where can i find more info on the S1, S3 modes etc?

    Indeed it was a faulty powersupply. I tried with a Qtec 400W and that one works perfectly. So thank you Assaf for the suggestion. I already tries all i could find in all newsgroups, just this was my last resort. Now to convince my supplier to get me a decent (quiet) powersupply!
