When you boot to desktop, what does console log say if you try to rebuild the kernel cache, either via kext wizard or "touch" via terminal?

Impossibile trovare la partizione dell'assistente di avvio=unable to find boot partition. Appears OSX not recognizing your HD as bootable volume, along with crashing of some core apps, primarily imAgent/Mesages. Try Artur's suggestion first, If still issue try reinstalling the Essentials.mpkg from the installer, you can just double click it to install, and verify correct boot drive is picked in boot section of systemPrefs, owners are enabled and correct permissions and owners set for /, do not apply any changes recursively, can then try to repair permissions again with diskutility. If all else fails a clean install to a clean disk with no other partitions on it maybe as last resort.

To use UseKernelCache=Yes you MUST have all your kexts in S/L/E, NOT E/E and you have to rebuild the caches as described above.

I had this same issue and your post solved it for me in the easiest way. I just used Kext Utility to install my extensions from E/E, removed them from E/E and rebuilt cache.

Thank YOU!
