After update, booting normally or in Safe Boot (-x -v) results in a hang (no KP though). Booting -s (single user mode) works fine.
Removed FakeSMC.kext (completely)
Same Issue
Removed AppleHDA
Same Issue
Replace AppleACPIPlatform.kext with rollback as posted in Post #5 of this thread

Same Issue
Turned of VT-d in bios
Same Issue
GraphicsEnabler=No
Same Issue
See screenshot of where things get stuck with -x -v
Last lines of console are:
Waiting for DSMOS...
Sandbox: sandboxd(124) deny mach-lookup com.apple.coresymbolicapplicationd
utun_ctl_connect: creating interface utun
So since booting is ok for -s perhaps there is some issue with my internal graphics? I did see some console entries such as kext com.apple.driver.AppleIntelHD4000Graphics failed to load.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
