Hi,

I just did a reinstall of Jaguar on my 17" iMac... and here is what happens now.

When I boot up it takes me to my login screen and I log in but then instead of taking me to my regular Aqua-ey goodness I get immediately dumped into Darwin...

Can anyone tell me how to get back to the MAc OS X desktop from here.

Thanks.

For starters, didja Repair Permissions and run fsck -y or Disk Repair? If not, it may help and can't (shouldn't ) hurt.

Did you by any chance install MacAdministrator on your machine. I had similar problem when I installed the Macdmin client ...
