Hi All,
My iMac 5K 2017 is facing kernel panic always every hour.
Here is the kernel panic log, and i have no idea what should I do now.
iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 10.15
It looks like a hardware fault. Do you have any external devices attached? If so, disconnect them and test.
If not or if the panics continue, take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Repair center for evaluation.
It's probably a hardware problem.
You can try resetting NVRAM and erasing and reinstalling the OS. If you don't have a backup, make one before erasing and reinstalling.
It could be the SSD. Disconnect it and see what happens.
Sounds like a hardware problem.
See if you can boot into Internet Recovery using cmd-opt-R. That will boot from Apple's servers instead of your drive.
Able to boot into internet recovery.
two more weird issues:
Current status, up and running 4 hours, everything’s normal. But when try to update or install macOS to external ssd, it will restart unexpectedly
I can't explain any of that based on the panic log short of there might be some hardware problem.
2. That may be a kernel panic where you are not seeing the report. Sometimes it cannot write the panic log, so when it restarts, it doesn't know that it had panicked.
I am actually installing macOS on the external SSD, could it be the issue?
I removed SSD and also the additional RAM that installed.
But still my iMac will restart suddenly with this kernel panic log
Reset NVRAM as per suggested.
Then, I press cmd+R to enter the recovery mode, but failed to enter, and it shows the apple loading logo instead, but after seconds, it restart unexpectedly again.
its an APPLE issue and the chip they are fighting "Error code: 0x0000000000000000\n"@/AppleInternal/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/xnu/xnu-6153.121.2/osfmk/i386/trap_native.c:168
