[QUOTE="grink, post: 1507966, member: 299109"] Thanks to all of you for your answers. Yes, the black popup is a screen in several languages telling to restart. Concerning resetting the PRAM, I had tried it, but it did not solve the problem. I believe the RAM should be OK for two reasons :firstly, the customer was unaware of what RAM is, secondly the CD of Knoppix loads in the RAM without problem. Yes, I holded the C key down quite a while, about one and half a minute I think. The customer could find a 10.6 disk too, but believed it was for an iBook. Should I try with this one ? I don't know if the iMac is a mid or late 2007. Can someone paste what should display in verbose mode just after the AppleYukon2 lines ? This may help to know where does the OS stops loading.
