Cannot boot OSX 10.8 without safeboot

[P.J.Leo]

Hi,

Wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what my problem is here. I cannot boot into OSX Mountain Lion at all without using the '-x' safe mode command. Once I got into OSX via safe boot I ran multi-beast for Mountain Lion hoping that would solve the issues but it did not.

I've got the following hardware:
Asus Z97-A
Intel 4790K
Corsair AX760i
Corsair Vengeance (2x8gb modules)
Corsair Carbide 540

Thanks!

There is no support for Z97 hardware in the Mountain Lion kernel. You need Yosemite or El Capitan for your hardware. Might work with Mavericks 10.9.5 but I would not bet on it.

Thanks for your reply. I'm currently trying to install Yoesmite via Clover.
