I'm trying to get NetBoot and NetInstall working on a recently set up a new Mac Mini with OS X Lion Server.We previously had Snow Leopard server and moved the existing images onto the Lion Server.However,when trying to boot off either image the machines kernel panic.Have tried creating new images, but with the same result.Â
View 3 RepliesTime Machine was doing its normal hourly backup when all of a sudden I got the multi-language gray shade of death. I restarted and tried to backup again, which resulted in another kernel panic. This time I tried entering Time Machine, and in the middle of "Connecting to Backup Volume," I get another kernel panic. This has never happened before I updated to 10.5.3, but I've had several backups since updating and this hasn't happened before just now, so I'm not sure it's a 10.5.3 issue.

I have Time Machine pointed at a Time Capsule and I'm on the MacBook listed in my signature. I turned off Time Machine until I can figure this out.
PeerGuardian appears to be causing kernel panic and my iMac to continuously srash, and yet I cannot find it to uninstall - Spotlight yields no results at all, and I have removed it from login items under System Preferences / Accounts. I want to remove PeerGuardian completely to see if this resolves the kernel panic but don't see (a) how I can, given that I can't find it anywhere and/or (b) how it can be causing a kernel panic if I can't find it anywhere!Â

I have an up to date Lion server that I have created a 10.7.3 netboot image with. The issue I am having is that in Server Admin, the netboot image shows in the images list, but does not show up on any client machine. I have tried re-creating the image using the same hard drive, as well as creating an entirely new image. The images just will not show on client machines

I have an OSX 10.4 server that I am attempting to use to deploy NetInstall images.
I want to update some OSX 10.3.x Macs that are on our network so I have created a NetInstall image from the OSX 10.4 Tiger DVD using System Image Utility. Then I planned to Netboot these 10.3 Macs using the 10.4 NetInstall image when I would have hoped would then push the 10.4 image out to the OSX 10.3 Macs.The Macs see the 10.4 netinstall image as an available startup system but when I select it the Mac just sits there with the spinning 'gear' and gets no further.I'm not sure if it is actually working or not, it certainly does not look like it!When this is happening my network seems to grind to a halt and my users on the network have problems connecting to other servers and also browsing network shares (on other servers).
Someone mentioned to me that perhaps the server si multicasting shich is flooding the network ?So, have 2 issues here; one where the client Mac does not get past the spinning 'gear' on the grey screen after selecting the NetInstall image to boot from and also the network slowing right down, grinding to a halt!
I have to admit that while I've watched over a lab of Macs and an OS X Server for several years, I'm still a novice at it. Despite that, I've managed to keep it going amongst my other sysadmin duties in a K-12 educational environment.
We just procured a lab of 30 new iMac 20" models, a new XServe, and a LaCie Biggest RAID box for backup, replacing our aging Graphite G4's running 10.3 and our Quicksilver Panther server. My plan for this coming year was to make life easier by switching to Netboot, and making our logins more seamless as well. All has been going well with figuring out the transition, but I'm concerned about Final Cut Express HD, which I purchased bundled with our machines to expand our horizons a little. It appears that Apple does not support running it under NetBoot from the docs I've found.
Has anyone here set this up successfully? I'm concerned first about the 30 individual serial numbers causing issues. I think I can get around any scratch disk issues by making a partition on the local iMac a scratch disk, but as I said, I'm swimming in unfamiliar waters.
I get kernel paic upon boot. I did that hard drive cleanup and reinstalled Lion. What about memory? I need to upgrade my memory? I have 8 G of upgraded RAM. (20 inch iMac core 2 duo)

This problem is on a Xserv G4.
The problem happened on the server installed with x.3.9 runnig for over a year, giving AFP, FTP, NFS, services and runnig OPEN DIRECTORY in REPLICA. The DHCP service is provided by a Xserv g5 giving Netboot service on the same subnet.
In Server Admin, Netboot lost the setting menu as I was accessing it. So no ports to see, no images can be added. The only menus available are
Overview
Log
Clients
The start button is shadded, so not avaiable.
Through TERMINAL, with sudo serveradmin start netboot I get
serveradmin[1076} Exeption in docommand: *** -[NSCFArray addObject:}: attempt to insert nil netboot:error = "NIL_RESPONSE_ERR (*** -[NSCFArray addObject:}: attempt to insert nil)"
I have undated to TIGER X.4.3, but of couse, it is the same. Everything else works.
After reinstalling a NEW system a reconfiguring EVERYTHING, I again lost the menus of NetBoot as I accessed them !!
Booting witn and external FireWire drive with a clone of my working SYSTEM in x.3.9 has the menus but the ports can't be seen.
A hardware problem ?
I'm getting this quite frequently now. When I put my MacBook Pro to sleep (bought in novemeber 2011, running OS X Lion 10.7.3) and turn it back on, it crashes after I log in in my account.This is getting quite annoying, and I was wondering if there's something I could do to prevent it to give me a kernel panic after each wake up. I certainly don't want it to become more and more frequent. I don't have a Mac installation DVD so I wouldn't be able to reinstall OS X Lion.Â

After downloading and installing the latet updates this evening my computer screen went to a dark gray screen similar to the iCloud background. After it sat like that for an hour I powered down using the power button. When I restarted it I got a gray screen with Panic in the first line and a small amout of text. I ran disk utility from the Snow Leopard disk but when it restarted I got the same screen as before. The updates included Aperture 3.3, Camera Raw, airport utility and several others.

To date we have been reimaging any new Macs or failed ones with an image that sits on our external firewire drive. This image includes all our corporate apps etc etc.
An an alternative to this, I would like to explore the use of NetBoot/NetInstall/NetRestore to reimage these machines.
To be clear, I dont want to NetBoot a machine just to use an image off the server (OSX server 10.3.9) and thats it, just to boot off the server and have a another image (our corporate one, applied to the client machine.
I have been reading loads about this and have been messing about creating an image etc but I underdstand that I have to enable NetBoot on the OSX server and also host the image I want applied to the client Mac on a sharepoint ?
I installed 10.7.3 (combo) from 10.7.2 yesterday on my Mac Mini and everything was smooth-ish, a bit of slowness here and there.Â
Today my Mac crashed completely, I couldn't Force Quit the app I was in, nothing. So I held down the power button and did a restart. After I did this, all I got was the grey apple with the spinning wheel for ages and ages, and then got a Kernel Panic screen.Â
I did what it said and restarted again. This time it just repeated and repeated the startup tone, and then going to kernel panic again.
I have tried everything I know of. P-RAM reset, Safe Boot, but nothing works.Â

This issue just started a couple of days ago. I noticed something weird happening when I watching a YouTube video - the video stopped playing but the sound kept on going like nothing was wrong. Anyway I ran the Apple Hardware Test yet it detected no problems. I even went through the extended test just to make sure. I originally got this machine as Snow Leopard but upgrading to Lion.
Basically what happens is the whole screen freezes and i reboot and I am able to go about its business until the next freeze. The times that I have came back into the room to see it froze up was when the screensaver had turned on or when I was playing any kind of game it seems like it had frozen up(one time playing a game in VMWARE (windows xp). I dont know if this could be a GPU issue or not.

i'm experiencing frequent kernel panics on Lion with 10.7.3. This has only started occuring in the last week with no obvious changes before it started. I've repaired disk permissions, used OnyX to clean everything up, and it still occurs (approx 4-5 times per day). My computer is a 15" MacBook Pro with 8gb ram, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, NVidia GeForce 9400m 256mb video card. It seems to occur more frequently when I have an external drive attached (either Firewire or USB). As my profession is video editing, it's not really viable for me to simply not have one connected!! This is starting to get quite frustrating as it interrupts my work significantly.Â

Since 12th May when updated to 10.7.4 have at least one kernel panic per day sometimes four per day which means iMac i3 is useless for running a server platform. Multiple entries about this form may users is there a bug in OSX update? My recovery partition holds 10.7.2 any idea if this is bug prone as well?

My Mac Mini froze while using Safari and watching a youtube video, so I restarted the machine by holding down the power button, then on startup I reloaded Safari, and it completely froze again. This time around, I got a kernel panic on boot. I tried booting into single user mode by holding down the shift key, but that still gave me a kernel panic. So I tried using the Lion Internet Recovery mode by holding down command-option-R when booting. The OS showed the Internet Recovery progress bar, but when it completed and the machine rebooted, I got a kernel panic again.Â
Is there anything else I can try to recover this machine, or do I need to take it into an Apple store to have them fix it? It's a mid-2011 model, so I don't have a DVD drive in it, so I can't use a boot disc, although I guess I could use a bootable USB, but I don't have another machine to create one with.Â
I figure if it kernel panics from an Internet Recovery, then that takes my hard drive and anything that was installed on it out of the equation. I've also disconnected all external devices, drives, etc, and only have a monitor and keyboard/mouse attached to it, so that rules out any other devices that might be causing problems.Â

I'm aware of the Airport issue mentioned on these forums (and have tried the kext fix for that without any luck). I have KPs when watching 4+ minute long videos on Youtube (have no issue using iMovie for longer videos or watching videos from my own harddrive), sometimes when the screensaver is on or shortly after the computer goes unidle, and sometimes for no apparent reason. I've already had 2-3 KPs in the past 4 hours. This is my first Mac and not at all what I was expecting. Â
Sometimes the screen will flicker rapidly, other times I will get a black screen, pink screen, or the screen will "glitch" and move halfway to the left (right is now on the left and left on the right). I can sometimes delay the crash if I pause the video (the screen starts to twitch or have "lightning" flashes across parts of it) but it will eventually crash anyway. Â
I usually use Firefox but have had the same crash in Safari so it's not browser-related as far as I can tell.Â

My computer broke down so I had a repaired and the original software was re-installed and it worked perfect. Whenever I restore from Time Machine, I get the kernel panic error. I have to reload the original software and it works perfect again. I tried using Migration Assistant, but it fails every time after 30 minutes of saying 1 minute left to transfer documents. I go in to Time Machine and view my external hard drive and all my stuff is still there, except I noticed my applications are crossed out. At least the non-default ones. That may just be because they're not currently loaded.Â
What can I do from here? I was using Lion before my computer went down. I'm now using the OSX install DVD. I also have the Snow Leopard, but haven't tried that, if it even makes a difference.

I had the hard drive replaced in in my mid 2009 17" MacBook pro. After the clean install of lion I migrated my data from time machine (lion) to the new clean partition.. Upon completion the machine is unresponsive. The progress wheel turning for 10 minutes. I force quit and restart to kernel panic. I have been through this 3 times same sequence of events same results.

I've had my MacBook for almost 5 years, first Mac I ever purchased, and have told everybody since then how I've never had one single problem with it, virus, or anything. My desktop PC would crash about every 6 months prior to getting my MacBook & the employee at Best Buy talked me into getting a Mac. I've been extremely satisfied in every way with it until now.
I finally bought a mini-dvi to hdmi cord to hook up my 70' Sony Bravia as a secondary display, but ever since hooking it up I'm getting constant kernel panics where I'm forced to restart my computer. This happens atleast 10 times a day and sometimes as much as every 10 minutes. It's not the TV as I have the same problem connecting to my 44' Philips TV. Am I just constrained to only using the Macbook screen connected to my laptop?

Using iMovie and got a (-50) error and ran Disk Utilities to see if everything was okay. Unfortunatly it wasn't and recomended that I hold down the command and r key while doing a restart. When I do this, the Apple logo comes up, but then switches to an icon of a circle with a diagonal line through it and then I get a kernel panic shortly after. how my App Store purchesed lion can run disk utilities in protected mode?

However Safari is causing all kinds of hangs restarts kernal panics overheating with my machine and yet if I use google chrome for the exact same web sites these same problems are not present. I much prefer to be able to keep using safari and I realise that I haev not got the most up to date software since Lion is not supported on my machine but it is as up todate as snow leaopard allows.Â
I also realize that a more than 5 year old machine is doing very well especially since it is rarely off. It has outlasted 2 timecapsules and countless airport express but the anomyly between 2 browsers is weird. I doubt this has a solution but maybe the odd apple tech who read this might find it a challenge to know why one browser causes heart issues but another doesn't.
