I have a late 2008 MBP I update from 10.7.4 to 10.7.5 and it refused to boot, although it would safe boot. So I tried a clean 10.7.5 install still would not boot. Again happy to boot into safe mode.
Next tried a clean 10.8 install again it will only boot into safe mode.
Booting into verbose mode it fails at the bluetooth, so i tried disabling the bluetooth extensions, still no joy.
Any ideas?
I've re installed 10.7.4 and it is working perfectly. I would love to update though.
To update to 10.7.5 go here:

To upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion you need to purchase it from the App Store, download it and install it.
I'd need to understand why the machine will only boot in safe mode when i update past 10.7.4.
Boot to the Lion Recovery Disk and from Disk Utility run Repair Disk.
Hey Sig,
I ran all the usally disk repairs and permissions repairs. It still will not boot in normal mode in any OSX above 10.7.4. I assume they have change a driver or extention that is causing a conflict. Its very fustrating as others seem to be running ML on the seem hardware with no problem.
cheers

Why would a late 2008 MBP not boot with 10.8?
