Yosemite on Optiplex 755

[Necrouk]

I was worried it might be the case about the drive sizes...

So I have tried this.. cloned the working drive, used multicast but this time selected easydsdt.

It boots into the desktop without any errors, but its always booting in Safeboot, I am not choosing this with a command, its doing it on its own. any ideas?


Problem description:
Clone from working install, with easydsdt selected in Mulitbeast. Starts automatically in safe mode.

Check in your org.chameleon.boot.plist file whether the flag -x present or not.

Check in your org.chameleon.boot.plist file whether the flag -x present or not.

Its not

 

[Jithin.C.V]

Its not

Boot into the cloned copy.

Run the below command in terminal

mkdir ~/Desktop/Necrouk
bdmesg > ~/Desktop/Necrouk/bdmsg.txt
sudo cp /Extra/org.chameleon.boot.plist ~/Desktop/Necrouk/

Post the folder "Necrouk" here from your Desktop

Hi, been away for a bit.

I used the dd command as advised by another forum member and still get the same issue, automatically using SafeBoot on every start.

I even cloned the drive sector by sector with Active@Bootdisk as a raw sector copy onto a brand new drive. Copied fine no errors.
When try and boot from the disk it boots fine but will auto go into Safeboot. I don't choose any options.

So I am amazed... How can the disk I cloned from boot fine but the cloned one not. I have examined both disks and they have the same partitions etc and contents, both have EFI partitions etc.

Surely this shouldn't be possible?

Boot into OS X and open Disk Utility then select the partition (where you have cloned OS X ), goto First Aid then run Verify Disk.

If errors are appearing then fix it.

Then reboot and check.

Try running multibeast and under Drivers, choose Disk then choose TRIM Enabler. See if the 10.10.x trim patch won't resolve your issue.

 

[Jithin.C.V]

As per my understanding TRIM patch required only when using SSDs.

No errors found during check..

Rebooted same thing

If I do thirds will it overwrite the other settings? The internal drive is an ssd but has not had trim enabled. This was the disk used to clone. Thanks
