Repeat kernel panics

[Russell Brown]

Our iMac keeps crashing in the last week, maybe every other day, and twice today.  I'm assuming its to do with ML and the recent update.  Not sure there is any pattern but attached is the text of the log from the most recent error report.

I can't see anything obvious or rather I can see the panic bit but have no idea what it means.  Is there something I should be doing or shall we just continue to tut, roll our eyes and restart and wait for another update?  If someone could glance and comment I would be grateful.

Thanks

Russell

I've had loads of crashes with ML compared to any other version for years as did the reviewer on Forbes.com who was then berated by loads of Apple 'fans' for daring to say that ML was anything less than perfect because their own installation was flawless and therefore the guy must be spreading FUD. Sigh. Having said that, it's much better since installing 10.8.1 on my iMac, thought my partner's Macbook Air still seems to have the spinning rainbow wheel far too often for comfort.

Make sure you tell Apple using  http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html , other than that I'm not sure what to suggest I'm afraid. Sorry.

Cheers,

Stephen

Thanks Steven. I'm certainly reporting, each time and my wife is doing the same.

Do you have Apple Stock ram or 3rd party? As since upgrading to ML
mine randomly crashes with the Mr Memory 8GB but no issues when it's
got the original Apple 4GB in.

[Stephen Watson]

I have 4GB of Apple RAM and 8GB of Crucial RAM (installed the day I got my iMac home). This never caused a problem with Lion and since installing 10.8.1 I have so far been free of any more crashes.

My partner's MacBook Air has only the Apple installed 4GB.

I don't know if that helps at all really ...

Regards,

Stephen

John,

Have you discussed this with Paul Atkins at Mr Memory. All their RAM has a lifetime warranty.

Russell,

I experienced this with an early 2008 iMac.

We changed the RAM and then the logic board because of the CPU1 alerts in the report, neither made any difference. We then tried running it from an External Hard Disk which reduced the frequency of the panics. Only after replacing the internal hard drive (which tests fine) was the problem cured.

There have been a number of instances where a computer is fine running anything up to and including 10.7.3 as soon as its upgraded to 10.7.4 or 10.8 - masses of kernel panics. It tried reverting this iMac back to 10.7.3 but that didn't help, by the way.
