[SOLVED] messed up com.apple.boot.plist

(1/2) > >>

Mailyfesux:
I messed up the com.apple.boot.plist file trying to edit it. Now my computer cant boot up chameleon. Is there a way to fix this?

blast9999:
You can use another working system to connect the hard drive to and restore the plist, or reinstall Chameleon, which usually takes another working system anyway.

Mailyfesux:
Do you think it would be possible to use a linux live cd to edit the file back?

I think im going to try that now  :P

Mailyfesux:
I got this problem fixed by changing the active boot partition to windowsxp, run an application called macdrive and then undoing the changes i made to the plist file. :]

[↑ Mailyfesux: kudos for following up to your post and marking it solved]

Another easy solution would be to boot from a Boot132 CD and fix the messed up com.apple.Boot.plist file

We have a vanilla com.apple.Boot.plist file in this thread. Anyone who snafu'd his/her, will find it easier to start afresh with an unmodified one and add options one by one while testing between reboots.

[↓ Beerkexd: Nice addition  :). I was about posting an untouched one ]
