I rebooted to single user mode (using press & hold the Apple key and the S key), and ran /sbin/fsck -fy from the command prompt. Then it went to Darwin kernel version 8.6.1: Tue Mar 7 etc etc root:xnu-792.9.22.obj~1/release/I386Īnd hung on carriage return after there. Panic(cpu 1 caller 0x0030F4DC): hfs: block mark free: trying to free non-existent blocks (22037139 16384 14942208) then debugger was called (panic), doing a bunch of backtrace and lots of hexidecimal frame addresses popped, then backtrace terminated- invalid frame pointer 0xbffffd48.
At starting virtual memory just after removing some swapfile folders, it gives a: looked like it mounted the disk ok (I am new to Apple but very experienced in XP, somewhat in Linux, so I am unsure the details). None in verbal mode either - in that it froze. I rebooted trying Safe mode (per ) - it whirrs then shuts down to black. So at least I found which files I would loose on a reinstall - too many.
#BOOT CAMP FOR MAC OS 10.4 INSTALL#
While in Disk Utitilies off the Install CD, I saw the "image" dropdown, so perused that, and I _did_ see all my programs, files and directories at least apparently intact from that vantage point. I looked in to Firewire Target Disk Mode (per ) - but I have no other Apple machines available (but I do have a Windows laptop with firewire.? can that work? Or can I try to burn an image to an external HD somehow?) - Or can MacDrive 6 ( ) let me "see" the OS X partition form the successful WinXP install you think? Not good - I already have lots of important stuff on that HD.
#BOOT CAMP FOR MAC OS 10.4 UPDATE#
I bought AppleCare, but they said merely to slick that partition and reinstall OS X, then update it to. I tried to boot from the Installation CD to get to Disk Utilities - and ran the repair - it got through 3 steps to checking catalog file, then gave me in red: invalid extent entry, volume check failed below, "the underlying test reported failure on exit". Going back to OS X - I get the Grey Screen! And after a TON of work setting up the Mac OS drive/partition.
I have a new (2 week old, ser nr sw86109p5vj1) MacBook Pro 2GHz (with 1GB Apple RAM added for 2GB total), 100 GB HD, and just put on Boot Camp - after updating to Tiger 10.4.6, and updating firmware to 1.0 - and installed XP Home SP2 in a 35 GB partition just fine (with drivers).Religiously followed the procedures at: and got XP to run- it works great. HI - and Help!! :-) appreciate your advice!
