Yep, That's Me!
Ok, I went to my local RadioShack today and picked up a cable splitter (catalog # 278-785) so that I could "split" an internet connection. I ended up restarting my computer about 10 times (give or take) resetting the ip and trying to get the darn thing to work (I restarted because of this 'not related' http://www.macosx.com/forums/showth...t=Login+Problem any way, before I could fully test the splitter my PowerBook started to hang/stop, right after login (before the desktop picture) But it sounded like it was thinking, so I held down the power button and gave it another go. same thing, the only difference was that it started earlier, at the "gray screen". Next I started up in "Single-User Mode" and ran fsck -y. That hung/stooped at "checking catalog file". After this I got my Panther CD 1 and started up from that and ran Disk Utility. Since I can't take a screen shot, I'm going to type it out as best as I can.
This was the error message that appeared on top of Disk Utility:
This is what the Disk Utility screen said after the message:
Repairing Disk for "Macintosh HD"
- Checking HFS Plus Volume
- Checking Extents Overflow File
- Checking Catalog File
Keys Out of Order
- Rebuilding Catalog B-tree
The Volume Macintosh HD Could Not be Reparied.
Error: The Underlying Task Reported Failure on Exit (-9972)
0 HFS Volume Repaired
1 Volume Could Not be Repaired
So, what do I need to do to correct the problem, With out doing a clean install!
Thanks
