Kernel panic after restore
Brand new disk in my 15" MBP. Booted from my Leopard install disk and followed "Recovering from a disaster" directions from SuperDuper! manual (pp. 27-8). Restored from a sparse image backup of the machine made earlier today.

Restore and verify claimed to have worked, and I can see it in Disk Utility and select it as a startup drive, but when I try to boot from it I get

Panic (cpu 0 caller 0x004384FF): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".\n@/CourceCode/xnu/xnu-1228.12.4/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp: 1407

Yes, this is a backup of this very machine so it should darn well be the correct version.

One thing I noticed is that the new disk volume if called "macbookpro backup" (after the backup) rather than Macintosh HD (which is what the original was called). Can I change that, and might that have any effect on things?

Help!

Are you sure this was a "Backup - all files" with "Smart Update", Mike1?

Yes. It was done via "backup - all files" and it was updated with smart update and it was made bootable by SuperDuper!

That's really weird. Same Mac, same OS version? Hm. Try using your OSX DVD to "archive-and-install" over what you have (that'll leave your data and applications in place, and lay down a new OS)...

Leopard installer says "You cannot install Mac OS X on this volume. Mac OS X cannot start up from this volume"

According to Apple support http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1600 this means the disk is partitioned wrong. Going to try repartitioning as per the instructions there and then try re-restoring as per SuperDupr! guide instructions for "Recovering from a disaster".

If that's wrong stop me now...

OK, let's see if that helps. Can't hurt.

OK, Disk Utility told me there was no partition scheme! I partitioned the drive, made 1 partition, GUID partition scheme, then did a restore from my SuperDuper! backup to that volume, selecting "erase". It just finished, and booted fine. I logged in and renamed the volume from "macbookpro backup" to "Macintosh HD". My machine appears to be fine now!

Wow. "No" partition scheme? Pretty wacky, but I'm glad you're all set!
