matt77303 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 So ive created a pandora stick and installed mavericks on my toshiba laptop. Gone through the install and setup and got to the desktop. I get there by booting off the usb stick with -GraphicsEnabler=Yes However when i run the pandora post install app and install the bootlaoder and boot my machine off the bootloader on the hdd the boot stops at 'system uptime in nanoseconds' so... boot of usb = good, straight through to desktop boot of hdd = bad, stuck at system uptime in nano seconds. Im sure im missing summit simple here, just cant see what Any help would be good Matt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/297290-wont-boot-without-usb-stick/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
