boot error

Think I may have messed up my main drive with a hard reset. This is a fairly new reinstall

Getting this at boot:
0.134147] ACPI Error: Needed type [Reference], found [Integer] (____ptrval__) (20228331/exresop-66) '

(or press Control-D to continue):

I can press Control D, and everything loads, but think I'd better fix the problem before it manifests itself in worse ways.

I'm running on an old iMac:

Any ideas how to fix this? My skills are basic, not my day job.

ANY help appreciated.

I think I would do a fsck on the root partition.

you can try adding this to your boot parameters

Code: Select all

fsck.mode=force
but you can also do the fsck from a live usb.

I'll try fsck from a usb and report back when I get the chance.

Thanks!

Tried fsck from a usb on sda's. No dice. Same error. Any other ideas?

Based on the age of your CPU, your HDD is eleven years old and likely needs to be replaced.

did you run the fsck on all your partitions?

CPU is fine. Hard drive... maybe getting a little up there, but it isn't throwing any errors. Other than that, the display is still gorgeous and it is a solid computer. No reason to throw it away, what a waste. It was working fine UNTIL installed the latest upgrade.

Yes, I ran fsck on sda1, sda2, and sda3. SDA2 and 3 were clean.

Anything else I can try?

Maybe to check to see if all fstab entries are still valid.
