First off, I am running:
CORE I3 540 3.06G
GIGABYTE GA-H55M-S2V
MSI N8400GS-D512H
and used UniBeast 1.5.2 and the draft guide to perform the upgrade from 10.7.4.
I back up my drives nightly using SuperDuper, and had backed up the Main OS drive just prior to the install.
Everything seemed to be going just fine up until trying to boot into the freshly (and successfully by all measures) finished Mountain Lion install. My machine then hung at the white back ground grey Apple Logo screen.
At that point I rebooted and used the Chimera bootloader to boot into my backup OS drive. It did so successfully, and then I used SuperDuper to copy the backup OS 10.7.4 instance back onto the main OS drive. I was intending to reset the whole install and then to recreate my UniBeast USB drive to ensure that it didn't have any issues with the UniBeast created USB.
However, at this point I was unable to load back into the OS drive. After the "Loading Operating System..." ran for a few seconds I got a "Boot0: Error". Never having seen this before, I tried to use my UniBeast bootloader to boot back into the Backup OS Drive. This attempt resulted in a hang at the white back ground grey Apple Logo screen.
After myriad combinations of using UniBeast, rBoot 1.1 and rBoot 1.2, I finally tried booting in verbose.
Everything was flying along smoothly until it hanged at [PCI Configuration Begin].
What in the world happened here? Why was I able to boot into the backup drive once and only once? Why couldn't I boot back into the SuperDuper recreated Main OS drive?
At this point I'll be happy just to be able to boot back into what I assume should still be a functioning 10.7.4 install- I didn't change anything on this drive. (I should also point out that I didn't perform any other steps not written here, such as alter Bios settings or the like)
I guess it's just hackintosh karma coming around to balance things out, as for the past 3 years I've had nothing but clean, relatively painless installs and upgrades.
Any advice or pointers to helpful guides would be greatly appreciated. I've search and read a good deal these past 2 days to try and get things sorted, but I haven't found anything that would seem to be able to fix the issue.
Thank you!
