Finder crashes when visiting Devices -> My Mac

[envoy510]

That is the HD for my hack under Devices in the Finder. Running 10.9.5. I removed /System/Library/Caches, /Library/Caches and /Users/$USER/Library/Caches. Killed Finder. Still happens.

Ideas?

I removed /.DS_Store, same deal.

I'm gonna boot from a USB and run the diskutil to see if the root partition is OK... any other ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

Minor fix made to root filesystem, Finder still crashes.

Other ideas?

One other tidbit of info:

This morning I updated the Cuda drivers via the System Prefs to version 7.0.35 and the system immediately hung hard. I had to hit the reset button.

The Finder crashes started sometime after this.

Solved: it was something I had mounted. A sparse bundle and when I removed the .DS_Store and .Trashes in that bundle the Finder doesn't barf on my root filesystem.

Seems odd, but that appears to be the thing. I found it by clicking on the label for the sparse bundle, then the same thing happened.

I had repaired this sparse bundle (I repaired all volumes on the machine). Nothing was wrong with it, so I assumed it was OK.

Anyway, sorry for the noise...
