Kernel Panic

The first kernel panic in OS X yesterday, another today.

I have experienced my first kernel panic on OS X, once yesterday and once today. A very scary thing, the first time that gray shade comes down over the monitor screen, then the black dialog box appears with “You must restart your computer now, hold down the power button for several seconds” in four languages.

Both times I was working in iTunes, renaming files. The first time the iPod was connected, so I thought maybe there was a hardware problem, but the second time it wasn’t. Both times I sent the undecipherable report to Apple. Only they know what is going on. And they might not.

So I don’t know what the problem is. So now to housekeeping. Back up. Reformat. Fresh system, fresh software, rebuild the files. Put no unnecessary stuff on the drive.

This will keep me busy for about 2 days, plus. So even the posts that were rolling around in my head aren’t going to see the light of day for longer than I thought.

I hope that this problem, whatever it is, will be solved. This is the first time I have had any problem with OS X. Though I have noticed that iTunes crashes a lot.

Well, to work, now I have a to-do list. A long one.
