Hi,
I want to boot my MAC O X 10.3.7 on G5 in text mode
only, not in GUI mode.
I tried following things but it didn't happen.
1. I tried to modify /etc/rc file where I changed
SystemStarter-g to SystemStarter -v.
2. I uncommented the line in /etc/ttys
line
#console "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100
on secure
and commented the
console
"/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOS/
loginwindow"
3.boot args is already set to "-v"
I think, this is not the right mailing list to ask
this, but what i want to do is i want to print the
kprintf() messages which are dumped to
/var/log/system.log
Inputs will help us a lot.
Regards,
Parav Pandit
Hhmmm. I had thought that your change (2) would have done it. Well, we
live and learn.
However, if you just want to be logged in on the console, rather than
actually having to be text-mode all through startup, then you can log
out of Finder and then log in as ">console" (without the quotes,
but with the ">")
Of course, you can see the startup console messages by booting with
command-V or boot into single-user with command-S.
Regards.....Peter
