• How do i recover files from a MAC partition
    3 replies, posted
I have OSX 10.5.2 (I know its old) and recently downloaded the 10.5.8 update, when it was half way through installation i got a kernal panic. Now everytime i boot up i get a kernal panic and i want to recover my files. Is there a way of doing this?
Hold down CMD-T during boot and plug in a Firewire lead, plug the other end into another computer and you have yourself a very expensive external disk, copy your files off and reinstall OS X.
It'll have to be another mac since the HDD is formatted HFS+.
Have you tried booting in safe mode?
