I just updated my Hack from 10.9 to 10.9.5. First I downloaded the update through the App Store, but before i restarted I downloaded Apple's 10.9.5 Combo Installer, and installed the update that way too.
I am not sure if that caused the issue, but I also used MultiBeast to install some stuff before I rebooted (before update). I also installed a few apps.
I rebooted and when i went back into OS X it took ages to boot, it just stayed on the grey screen with the Apple logo and the spiny icon. So I held the power button to shutdown and I retried, this time leaving the screen for about 40 minutes.
Nothing happened so I tried many other things, among which, I booted into Safe-mode and managed to do another MultiBeast install thingy (hoping it would solve the issue). I installed some more apps and updated some old ones, including iTunes and some other Apple stuff.

Maybe there's a problem with a boot flag or a driver of a MultiBeast install???

I have attached images of the verbose mode output before and after removing unneccesary USB and PS/2 devices.

Basically I can't boot normally and I need help.
If there's any other info you need please let me know and I will try to deliver.


UPDATE:
I just used my 10.9 installer to reinstall 10.9 over the exisiting 10.9.5 partition that refused to boot.
I succeeded in booting and functioned as normal! I then installed some kexts through MultiBeast (I believe thats what they are). Before I shutdown I noticed that the App Store had automatically downloaded the 10.9.5 Combined Update and it appeared to have already installed and to be awaiting a restart.

Verbose outputted the same logs.

I do not know if it is the MultiBeast or the 10.9.5 update that is causing my install no not boot.
(Again, please help.)

Thanks, J

Please read the rules.

Hope you made a clone backup before you started your upgrade - makes it easier than starting over from scratch.
 
I just updated my profile to include my build (which is running 10.9).
Since the 1050Ti is not supported you will have to use the CPU graphics.
