I have an > old Mac thats running Darwin Kernel version 10. 8 or something like that This is actually somewhat off-topic on this list but OS X is in great part FreeBSD so I'll try to point you in the right direction: Darwin is the OS version. Given the version you specify is OS X and not Mac OS which existed up to OS 9. Starting with OS X Apple started using a version of NextStep which was in turn based on a FreeBSD template and the Mach kernel.

Thank you in advance for your kind response. > You would need to provide exact model. Some architectures are no longer supported. How do you know you have 10.8 on a 2006 Mac. Up to 2006 OS X only ran on Power PC models of the Mac. Maybe you can take a picture of the blue screen and post it somewhere and provide a link to it here (please do not attach the picture), Best, Alex
