| Blue screen of death on mac mini Hi. Last night my computer froze up, so I turned off the power to it. When I turned it back on, after the grey apple, a blue screen came up. I can't get it to go to the login page. I have tried this: "Start your computer holding the ⌘ and S key on your keyboard. When the black screen turns up and the "writing" stops, you will see something like: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- If you want to make modifications to files: /sbin/fsck -fy /sbin/mount -uw / If you wish to boot the system: exit :/ root# ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Now to check your filesystem, type: /sbin/fsck -fy and press the return key on your keyboard and wait for the process to finish. If any errors are found repeat the above mentioned command until you get something like: ** The volume some_name appears to be OK. (The term "some_name" is just to indicate that I don't know the precise name). Now type: exit and hit the return key. Hopefully after some more terminal text your mac will boot into the login screen." It didn't work. I also tried reinstalling the leopard software, but the blue screen sits there, so that doesn't work. Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Susan |
