Any MAC repair smarties out there?

Installing Lion. Running like a top on restarts since I did a fresh install. Must have had something corrupt in the software.

Just an FYI, you likely had some file system issues preventing the machine from booting

(Command) Apple + S at the boot tune will enter into single user mode

at the command prompt type /sbin/fsck -fy > return

It will check the file system (fsck = file system check)

Likely will find some erors and correct them...

Once done type exit and it should boot into the full graphical user interface and desktop

Luckily OSX isn't anything like a re-install of Windows ( I use both and and don't discriminate or choose favourites), but and OS X install is painless compared to Windows

peace out
