[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1632560, member: 46727"] You can remove or completely disable rEFIt this way: Use your live Linux distro and go to Macintosh HD/efi and rename the efi folder to something like efi_save or efi_bak. That will disable rEFIt. Then try doing a PRAM reset again and see if it will boot normally. If that doesn't work, you may have to remove the HDD, use either an adapter or USB carrier and attach the drive to another Mac and extract what data you need. [/QUOTE]
