The 'Options' for XpostFacto booting have gotten changed from your previous settings.
When you click on XPF and it comes up with the 'choice of what to do' screen, click on 'options' --- the 'verbose messages' choice is i believe the top item on the left side of the screen, click on that, close that window, continue with your usual choice (Boot OSX, I presume), and all should be back to 'normal'.

Hi Dan, I am running two S900's on OSX Jaguar since late 2003 with no serious problems that I was unable to correct.
Since my last cleaning of the inside of machine #1 and adding a much newer Xpost Facto to the mix I have been getting the standard OSX boot screen and not the verbose start up that I had previously.
I have not started in OS 9.1 since the original install of OSX. Except for this last time when I took the machine down to clean.

Hi Listers-
Either I have witnessed weird S900 behavior or I'm just getting old like the machine. I keep my S900 on all the time, except for rare maintenance sessions. Whenever I did a cold start, I did so into 9 and then using XpostFacto, restarted into X... all very natural by now. My last 2 cold starts were quite different and I would like to know if others have had this experience. I'm running 10.3.8 with all the security updates and the version of XpostFacto, that I'm using, and which is located on a different partition along with 9, is 3.0a15. I have two other more current versions, 3.0a16 and 3.0a17, which I never bothered to decompress because everything is working well. When I did the cold boot it started both times right into X without a long struggle or any problem, fast, just like my Alum and Ti books.
Is this a result of an update of the OS? ...or because 10.3.8 holds XpostFacto in some form?. My machine was off for a couple of hours each time so it seems weird. that this was able to happen. I'm certainly not complaining... just curious, wondering if some improvement got by me. Anybody...?
