Boot failure after wrong system definition

[wardy1979]

Hi, I made the mistake of updating to the wrong system definition while trying to fix a system speed issue. The machine fails to boot, obviously unhappy with what the clover system definition is trying to tell it. Is there anyway to change this? Maybe through the clover boot menu?
Thank you in advance.

Hi there.

Yes, you can.

When at the Clover menu move the selection to the second line and choose the Options icon. From there you can change the system definition temporarily to get into your system.

Any idea what to change it to? It doesn’t seem to like any of my attempts.
