Can't boot from disk, Darwin won't take login
I have a older iMac G5 running 10.4.11..when I connected my ipad1 to iMac is when this all started...it won't go past start up, so after going to apple.com support I came here because I have tried different things to get it back up but it seems it won't do anything.
I have used the disk to try and start from but it goes to Darwin and it won't let me log in..says log in failed
I bought this iMac used and have NEVER had to use that persons admin log in, but I even tried that and I cant get past the Darwin log in failed. I don't know what to do I'm so frustrated...any help is appreciated !
Chas says it's hosed, but I don't know what that means.
I have never had admin problems before, I can't get past the Darwin login, it won't take any admin login, even the old one from lady I bought computer from, or my login....it's very confused and so am I
