Chameleon freezes when trying to load startup options
« on: November 26, 2010, 11:52:34 AM »
I am not sure where to post this question because I am new at all this, but I hope someone can help.

Whenever I try to go into a partition other than Windows, Chameleon freezes. It happens on the screen which says something along the lines of "press any key to enter startup options". I press a key and the bar that is going down just freezes. This happens with or without a theme. I am able to load OSX if I don't try to enter the startup options and let it default to OSX, but I am unable to get into my Windows 7 or Ubuntu partitions. It's been a long time since I installed everything - most recently Ubuntu 10.10 when it came out. The entire time Chameleon has been working fine, and now it just stopped working. I really have no idea where to start looking for an answer.

As you can gather from the post above, I had Chameleon set to triple boot OSX, Win7, and Ubuntu 10.10, along with having a shared partition for all of them. Once I would go into Win7, I also have the Windows Bootloader set up to let me choose between all partitions (solely because I used EasyBCD first before configuring Chameleon).

Please help if you can, or let me know where I can look for an answer. Thanks!


Edit: I went back to Chameleon 1 and it works fine. I tried going back to Chameleon 2 (from iAtkos v7 disk) and it did the same thing. I really would love to have 2 again so if anyone has anything I could try, please let me know.

Hi mate... can you try the RC5 linked on my signature?
It's compiled from the trunk and i try to keep it up to date...
You will have to install it via Terminal as the package has only the binaries.
