Hope this is ok to post here (also posted in Redcine-X bugs):

Just installed new Redrocket driver on my Macpro Nehalem 8Core running Snow Leopard.
Installer prompted to restart/shutdown after install....Getting a kernel panic and now the computer won't start! (Posting from my laptop). Basically on startup the screen flashes white for a second then getting the gray panic screen with panic (cpu 0 caller 0x558993): "unable to find driver for this platform: / "ACPI". etc
HELP !!!! Hope this doesn't mean a system re-install.
:-(

EDIT: Managed to boot in safe mode, then install new RedRocket Firmware then power down. Powered up and computer now seems to be working fine. Perhaps I shouldn't have powered down untill I installed the RedRocket firmware as well?
