Comment: Hello, Ive got a booting problem, yesterday ive installed
OSX.3 (from 10.2.4) and after reboot it did not start
-up, I get at the grey screen (apple with swirly
thingie) and it stays there. Ive tried everything,
booting from cd (with c and with
cmd-opt-shift-delete) but it does'nt boot ive tried 5
different CD's (imac, g4 powerbook, 10.2, 10.3). I
zapped the PRAM and the NVram. I'm out of

Reply: (edit)I had that same problem, that it wouldn't
boot from the cd. The SCSI drivers are bad.
They aren't recognizing the cd drive. Put
the install disk in. Go to apple menu,
control panels. Go to startup. Highlight
the cd to change the startup type. Reboot
the computer and you should be able to get
back in. I can't remember exactly where it
was, but I believe I went into the utility
file, SCSI and reinstalled them fr

Reply: (edit)Put the system install disk in. Go to apple
menu, control panels, startup. Highlight the
cd. Restart the comp, but don't hold down
the c key. In boot menu, go to utility
folder, SCSI. Highlight the harddrive. Go
to function, update drivers. You may want to
run Disk First Aid in the utility folder
also. Change the startup type back to
harddrive and restart.

Reply: (edit)I just had to do this myself. Apparently, an
application program I installed caused a
system conflict and messed up the drivers.
Grrrr.
