#START MAC POWERBOOK G4 IN SAFE MODE FOR MAC OS X#
This is also being discussed in the apple forums as well. For Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.3.9, start up in Safe Mode. I have many disks that I can work with but I have even gone back to see if I can run with os 9, norton, tech tool, diskwarrior, and a host of others. I lent my firewire cable to my brother in law.so I will be getting that back in about 8 hours and I should be able to use the drive from my G5 if it is in target mode.ĭoes anyone know how I can get something installed on my HD that I can use to delete some files so I can reinstall tiger. This hack has been tested with a MacBook, its DVDs, a PowerBook, and an iMac G4 it shouldn't be much d different on similar systems. I wasn't able to load the HD in target mode on my PC.although any disks in my pbook were coming up on the PC. I want to just reinstall it again but now I don't have enough disk space for a bare minimum install. Then I updated the OS.then it got back to the same situation. I fixed some permissions that were messed up. I had the mac chime go off and some items loaded and then my mac was stuck on a blue screen. Safe Boot doesn't let some extensions load, which activate specific extended functions of various chips, including some function controlled by circuitry that's damaged. I have the same thing going on with my PB 15 1.2 5 right now. Starting up in Safe Boot mode doesn't bypass the VRAM-the VRAM is a set of chips containing the Mac's video image, and if these chips were bypassed, you'd see nothing onscreen.
