Could be faulty memory. Could be motherboard. First, try zapping the PRAM. You never know.
If it still fails, I'd boot it off an external drive with a good system on it (I keep one for each release). If you have another Mac with the proper system on it, you can always throw it into Transfer Disk mode and then boot the bad one off it. If it still fails, it's hardware. If removing the memory chips one at a time doesn't fix it, I'd write it off. > On Apr 9, 2019, at 4:09 PM, Carl Hoefs <[email protected]> wrote: > > If I try booting up my 2010 MacBook Pro 7,1 I get a gray screen of death. > > > > "unexpected SIGKILL of init with reason -- namespace 9 code 0x1 description > none" > > Does this mean a mobo issue, or the HDD is kaput? > > There's no recovery partition, and the HDD is FileVaulted with who-knows-what > password. > > -Carl > > _______________________________________________ > MacOSX-talk mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
