Hi all,

This afternoon I installed the latest 10.3.2 upgrade. After the required reboot I'm not able to get past the following screen:

"Login window starting"

Here's what I've been trying so far:

1. Rebooted several times, no effect.
2. Rebooted without mouse/firewire/aiport
3. Repaired permissions with my Panther CD.
4. Resetted the PRAM
5. Safe mode startup
6. Single user mode startup

All these actions had no effect, can't get passed that "login window starting" screen.

Any suggestions are more than welcome!

Tried this one too:

7. Resetting open firmware

HELP!

Did you try repairing the disk from your Panther CD? If that doesn't work, I'd back up all your data....just in case.

This screen did take quite a while to get past for me on my iBook 800...like a few minutes, but it hasnt froze yet.

How about 4 hours waiting :-( That should be enough...
