Q: FIPS Userspace POST?

I'll let it boot Recovery one more time. FIY i was never able to boot recovery. The HDD is mechanical, but i don't think it's dead. I had no problems w/ it.

40+ mins. Stuck at spinning gear

Can't it be rewritten? w/o erasing? Maybe i can put the Lion image onto a USB and reinstall without erasing. Will that rewrite the recovery as well?

Thanks

It's got Filevault2 on it. It's mine, bought from our Apple reseller. I installed Lion personally.

I started an install directly from the OS. Now it's asking for reboot. I'll see what happens.

I did NOT install FIPS. Maybe Cinema 4D's netrender? Or Photoshop CS6?

Anyway, i did a reinstall without erasing, and recovery works! But sine i have Filevault now, i can't boot verbose to check if FIPS is there...

Nobody had access to my Mac. However, why should i erase it? It doesn't affect me. And i spent a lot of time configuring the apps.

ARGH! Now Mail won't open
