Hope someone can help me...This has me perplexed.
I bought and installed an SSD on my Mac Pro. When I tried to boot from my DVD to do the install, I kept getting a kernel panic during the boot and got the screen where it tells you to restart your computer. Thinking this might be an issue with the SSD, I pulled that drive, but I still kept getting the KP during boot from DVD.
Well, I managed to get OS X installed on the SSD without booting from Mac install DVD, but now, I get the same KP when booting from the SSD. So, I can still boot no problem from my original boot hard drive, but I can't boot from the DVD or the new SSD.
I have tried the following with no luck:
1. Reset Nram
2. tried different memory modules.
3. pulled SSD out of computer and tried to reboot to DVD
4. unplugged all devices except for keyboard and mouse (apple not third party)
None of these steps have worked. Again I can boot fine from the original boot drive, just not from the DVD or the SSD.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
