How to Fix YoYo boot virus

Hello There,

I would like to know how to fix the yoyo boot problem (YoYo / Y∞Y∞).

There is precious little information about this problem, so I'm hoping
the collective brain on this list will know all . . .

1) At boot proceeds through POST
2) then "Verifying DMI pool data . . . . . . . . ."
3) at the c prompt: "YoYo"
After YoYo (where the "o"s look like eights on their side) boot does
not proceed and it just hangs there.

Any ideas?

I've flashed and updated the bios, restet the MBR, but i can't fix it.

Thanks to all

  • Funny thing - this seems to happen every now and then ...

    While hangs after "Verifying DMI pool data" are known to occur since ... hm ... more than ten years (and can have a variety of causes) the similarity of the posts is astounding.

    BTW: a major search engine has recently indexed this discussion - it's top when searching for "at the c prompt:""YoYo"
