The only workaround is to boot off the jaguar CD and repair the disk with disk utility

Not true, from my experience, disk utility is very rarely able to much beyond repairing permissions.


While booted into 9, use Norton's disk doctor to repair the disk. this very thing happened to me yesterday.


... really NUM to repair OS X volumes?

BTW. When it happens I can only see the volume using the OS X CD!

Norton's 8 fixed it for me.


Weird thing happened. Left the room, computer went onto screen saver, when I came back it had experienced what looked like a kernel panic. screen saver was frozen and all the panic text was in front of the frozen screen saver. Would not respond to anything. So when all else fails....., I forced crashed - ugh. This caused a reboot into OS9 and the drive partition with OSX on it would not mount. Ran norton 8 and told it to fix everything (and there was a lot messed up) & remount the partition. The force crash probably was what caused most of the problem, but what was I to do? anyone know of a gentler way to let the system down when this sort of thing happens?
