:eek:
Dumbass plugged in a faulty firewire drive into my TiBook without permission. It gave me a kernel panic. Ouch.

Then 20 minutes later, just using Explorer on a flash site... BOOM kernel panic.

Two OS X crashes in one day!! (Well it hasn't crashed for 5 months so I'm not complaining)

Hope it doesn't happen again.

Anyone had problems with faulty firewire drives?

thanks,

Last week I had one after trying to save something in Imageready 7 beta. When I rebooted, I got another one immediately, before the OS even started to load, which really scared the s&%* out of me. I then restarted again, and every thing was OK.

The price you pay for using beta software...

Since 10.0.1 came out, the only other kernel panics I've had are from my KVM switch, which when I switch from one machine to another, essentially xfers the USB ports & monitor to the next machine. Sometimes when switching the machine that's losing the ports will hit a kernel panic. It doesn't do it too often, but GOD is it annoying when it does.

I really hope Apple addresses this soon and wipes it out. I mean, USB's (and Firewires) whole sellling point is hot swappability, right?
 
The only panic I've ever had was when using the public beta. It really scared me, because I didn't know what it was!

Since 10.0.0 everything has run smoooooothly.

There is an issue I believe with firewire (and maybe USB) that crashes OS X. Very hard to accomplish, but I read a bunch of firewire shit in that kernel panic.

It looks pretty scary! Suddenly your screen gets full of numbers and unix code almost (almost) as matrix.
