I tried anything ... diskwarrior, reinstalling xpf extensions, and all I could think about ... then I reformatted the HD and reinstalled everithing ;-) I really don't know what happened ... 10.2.4 has been working fine for a week, I don't think it caused the problem ... maybe I will never know, anyway now I'm on the road again (finally). Thanks manuel and geo for your kind help! Maurizio |

From what I understand from your configuration, did 10.2.x used to work before ? Did this problem appeared just with 10.2.4 and when ? Have you tried to reinstall 10.2.4 from XPF and its extensions ?... |

Try running Disk Warrior if you have it from OS9 |

sorry, I didn't mean to shout ... I can log in console mode, but if I type 'exit' it just logs out and all I get is still the same 'autenticate' mask (the same you get when you install something) and if i try to login from there ... nothing happens. 7300/G3500, 1gb ram, ATTO UL2D, 2x IBM 10K, radeon 7000, OsX 10.2.4 thanks for your help |

Hello Maurizio, I don't like to hear peoples shouting in the wilderness...but, have you tried to login from the console mode directly ? In the Login window type '>console' followed by return and from there you'll be into in 'Console' mode, just a black screen with white characters... If you can, type your standard login and passwd at the prompt. Once you succesfully logged in, you're located by default to your home directory (/Users/Maurizio I believe). If you successfully logged into your home environment, I guess you must a have a more serious problem that just permissions to access to login. You can list the content of your home directory with the 'ls -al' command. Type 'exit' when you get the prompt and then you should be back to the normal Mac OS X login window. Try again to login normally from there and let us know what's going on... Also, can you give us more details (what machine, RAM, HD, cards, OS X version you're using ?..) |
