eMac won't startup after kernal panic
I had a kernal panic while I was usking my eMac running 10.2.4, and after I restarted, the computer will not get past the screen with the grey Apple and spinning wheel. I will let it sit there for an hour and the wheel will spin endlessly. I've booted up on my Jaguar CD and repaired permissions as well as ran disk first aid. That didn't help at all. I've tried restarting with peripherals disconnected and that didn't help either. What can I do without reinstalling OS X?

Hope that helps
then you can get your stuff off and go from there.
also, do you know anyone else with a Mac? if so, drop your machine into target disk mode and get your files off, then wipe it clean.
