I've been trying to re-install Yosemite after my machine having a breakdown. I got the the install screen and it said the SSD I was trying to install onto needed to be repaired, so I did that in Disk Utility and then restarted my machine. Now the same external boot drive won't show up in my BIOS or boot menu so I can't get to the installation of the OS.

Any help would be much appreciated , its got me tearing my hair out!

Thanks in advance

Reset CMOS, reset BIOS/UEFI to optimum defaults, reset UEFI/BIOS settings for OS X, save&exit, continue boot.
 
That got the drive recognized but it only gets to me the next screen and then this happens

What is the fix for this?

Boot with -v boot-arg to find out what is causing the KP
 
This was the outcome of the above bootflags , unfortunately I do not understand where the error is so if you could inform me that would be fantastic!

With no hardware info in your profile and no sig the only thing I can tell you is that the kernel is refusing to load for some reason.
Do you have a drive clone or TM backup you can restore to a different drive?
 
Sadly I don't , no.

Is all the hardware I can let you know at the minute, my graphics card is currently not in my machine and I didn't put the hardware together myself I'm afraid so I can't be much more helpful annoyingly!
 
What hardware do you need to know to be able to give me advice? I have some paid work on the computer so need it back up and running ASAP

Take a look at my profile and enter the corresponding info from your hardware.
