If I unplug the Network then the Marvell Error goes away. I guess the error comes, because I can not connect to the network.


I am now doing


1. Booting from rescue USB

2. umount /dev/disk0s2

3. fsck_hfs -fy /dev/disk0s2

4. fsck_hfs -ry /dev/disk0s2


and the same for /dev/disk0s1 and /dev/disk0s3 -


I am normally a Linux guy and I have not yet figured out what the Lilo/Grub equivalent for OS X is. Can you help me with that? How do I rewrite the boot segement as with running "lilo" on Linux?


Thank you for your continued help and input!
