rhui099 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Hi all, I have a partitioned HDD w/ Win7 and Mavericks 10.9, I want to update to 10.9.5 but I fear that it might destroy my partitions if it fails... so my question is.. is it advisable to upgrade my OS via the appstore? will it break my partitions? coz my windows partition is also important... I'm on an Ivy bridge laptop, if that information is of any help..I'm new to updating so can you please enlighten me about this? Thanks in advance.

ggzz Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 As far as I am aware, it won't mess with your partitions. Backup your patched kexts. And dsdts/ssdts. Backup your boot loader folder/extra. You might lose audio or require other patches. I had to get my audio repatched and repatch my ar9285. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301452-updating-from-109-to-1095-on-a-dual-boot-partitioned-hdd-is-it-safe/#findComment-2068538 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhui099 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 Update: I accessed terminal via my usb installer in single user mode (-s) and removed the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext using these commands: mount / cd /System/Library/Extensions rm -rf AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext ..and i restarted the system, tried to load mac os with no flags and this is what I got: I also tried booting with -f and UseKernelCache=N to no avail... What should I do next?

Onixs Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 next? No! Do it again. You didn't do it correctly since the kext is still there.
