rockinron_1 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I booted into my OS X installation this morning to have it hang at the spinning logo and not boot so I forced restart & booted with -v and it hung here: As well as this screen I had it hang at could not find boot cache (or something to that effect - forgot to photo it) so then I booted with -x -f -v and got the following panic: I can't get to the desktop at all, currently downloading ML to a different hack so I can make an installer & fix permissions / disk / re-install fakeSMC to see if that makes a difference. I haven't installed anything new / updated anything but I did boot into windows (surely that can't screw over OS X?). The system has been stable since ML first came out, I typically leave it in sleep and it only gets shutdown once a week and I've never seen it panic previously. The only kext installed is fakeSMC, installed using vanilla method and the system is Desktop 1 in my sig. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? try this: boot with -s mount -uw / sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Caches/* shutdown -r now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinron_1 Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Just tried that, it got me to the desktop but with no wifi (AR5416 - should work OOB). Fix permissions & rebooted - didn't work so I did the usual trick of removing /library/preferences/systemconfiguration/*network stuff*, rebooted then back to same problem. Getting "unable to locate SMC driver" so I'm going to re-install fakeSMC now. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iFIRE Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Use app Kext Wizard for repairPermissions and rebuild caches, you can update your boot loader for last version, and in your boot.plis set UseKernelCache=Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockinron_1 Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Tried kernel cache, hardware is desktop 1 in my sig. Everything has been working perfect until today but as of this morning I'm getting panic on OS X loading & blue screen into windows so it must be hardware, gonna start stripping it down in a bit and see if I can figure out whats causing it.
