Hi amphtech

It sounds like you have enabled verbose logging.
Can you post the contents of your com.apple.Boot.plist please.

Thanks

Thanks for postiing. But from that I don't see the verbose setting, so I'm not sure what it could be now.
Where's the entry for quiet mode?
And I take it OS X boots successfully?

Yes OSX does boot fine, quite boot is enabled but when i copied the files contents i didn't have it enabled.

Okay.. Then it strange why you see the text as you've described.

For a test, does it still do the same it you run with a basic com.apple.Boot.plist like this?

Code: [Select]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string></string>
<key>arch</key>
<string>i386</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Can you post a photo of the screen during the boot process with the white text please?

Check /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist as well.

Could it be a specific distro? Requiring a disabling of verbose mode key/string? heh
I think I remember something.... I'm prob. wrong though =P
