[QUOTE="awirz, post: 844951, member: 87547"] [b]measures to bring your iBook G4 back to life[/b] Hi RenaeDeLiz, here it is again, the darn [I]"Workaround Bonjour: error: 0"[/I], sometimes rather harmless but it may occur when weird things are happening. Unfortunately I don't know exactly what process emits this error. I seems to have something to do with launchctl starting a daemon. But let's try something useful (hopefully). Did you already [COLOR="Blue"]reset the parameter RAM[/COLOR] (see tip for Tabatha)? If not do it 3 times in succession! Or did you [COLOR="blue"]reset the power manager[/COLOR]: turn ibook off, then simultaneously press and then release [COLOR="Red"]Shift-Control-Option-Power[/COLOR] on the keyboard. Do not accidentally press the fn (Function) key! Then wait at least 5 seconds and switch the iBook on again. If that did not help you can go into [COLOR="Blue"]single user mode[/COLOR] and [COLOR="red"]delete some files[/COLOR] that can prevent proper system operation: [INDENT]/sbin/mount -uw / ([COLOR="red"]note the space between uw and / !)[/COLOR] cd /Library/Caches /bin/pwd [COLOR="red"](check that you are in the right directory before removing!)[/COLOR] rm -r * cd /System/Library rm Extensions.kextcache rm Extensions.mkext cd /System/Library/Caches /bin/pwd [COLOR="red"](check that you are in the right directory before removing!)[/COLOR] rm -r * cd /var/db rm BootCache.playlist reboot[/INDENT] Good luck ;D Adrian [/QUOTE]
