Hi
I just performed a clean installation of 10.3.8 and a couple of days later the installation has mysteriously got stuck in Verbose mode. No user is recognised at the end of the verbose list when asked to login. Very wierd. So what do i do????
Cheers

    Well, I´ve been stupid to try this hack too. But now i´m stuck. Can someone help this noob? When i login using my username or using root he says "login incorrect" while i entered it right. How can I get into my mac? Or how do I set the settings back? Plz help me, I´m lost.

    hey - I got this too - I tried my own user, i enabled root and tried this a million times.

    then i wondered how do you do a soft-reboot from console?

    is there a key sequence so I can avoid shutting my machine down via power switch?
