I was getting desperate; had to reinstall OS but installer (from usb drive) kept reporting errors. Internal hard drive had already been formatted. A time machine backup was my very last resort! Many many thanks and keep up the sharing of knowledge!!!

]]> Comment on Simple VM JIT with LLVM by Sundar http://blog.fallingsnow.net/2008/05/23/simple-vm-jit-with-llvm/#comment-32501 Tue, 29 May 2012 03:42:41 +0000 http://evanphx.wordpress.com/?p=46#comment-32501 I haven’t looked into Parrot in a lot of depth, but from what I unedsrtand it’s a higher-level virtual machine than LLVM. LLVM really models a RISC processor with an infinite number of write-once registers (i.e. a single static assignment machine); it doesn’t have primitives for anything like method dispatch or imply support for garbage collection or anything like that.The point of LLVM is that it provides a great, flexible and platform-independent target for other things like Parrot. For example, since LLVM is structured as a set of libraries, Parrot could use it to perform just-in-time compilation from the higher-level abstraction it offers to an instruction stream that can be used on a particular piece of hardware. (Thus saving Parrot the work of implementing its own JIT.)

This isn’t really maintained since it was added natively in 10.7 and thusly the plugin isn’t needed.

You certainly have some extra brain power to be able to see that deep into apple’s labyrinth of codez. :-)

It started the install but failed to complete it. I tried twice but failed both times.

“Terminal 2.2.1 (v299) has not been tested with the plugin TerminalColours (null)”

Does anyone know how to fix that?

You are GOD!!! My problem was slightly different. iMac 27 mid-2010 won’t restart after unistalled MacKeeper. Tried all combinations,during three days, verbose, target mode, single user, boot cd, all. Could not get to time machine until I found your post. Used your suggestions and immediately after “Run kill pid_of_installer
You should now get a dark grey background, you’re doing great.” got access to time machine backup. Now restoring, if you don’t hear form me, it went well!!!! Time remaining, 60 hours…hope it will not be true!!!
