I installed the _first_ 10.2.8 update (the one which was removed shortly after being released) and immediately was unable to boot most of my kernels. Not a single 2.6.0-text(1,4,5) kernel would boot anymore (that is what I usually ran). The last message printed during startup is "Thermal assist unit not available" after that, the machine switches power off. Also, the hardware clock is reset to 1904. > What saved me in the end, probably, was the fact I had a second, older > fallback Kernel (kernel-image-2.4.20-powerpc) in /boot, *and* indexed > in yaboot.conf :), which still booted after the OS X upgrade (better: > It booted without problems after having stopped cupsys from starting > at boot time). 2.4.23-pre5-ben0 worked on my machine, too. Now I have installed the '1.2.8old -> 1.2.8new' update from apple.com, however still no change. Not a single of my old 2.6 images (that have been running for a month or so) would boot anymore. I suspect that apple somehow did a hidden openfirmare upgrade in that MacOS upgrade. > Wolfgang -- - Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org> http://www.gnumonks.org/ ============================================================================ Programming is like sex: One mistake and you have to support it your lifetime
