Thank you for reply.

I did list the OS in my original question.

I had found the same advice on apple & followed the instructions & kept getting kernel errors.

I called apple support

They walked me through it again & still same error.

I took it into genius bar & they fixed in 15 minutes & still dont know why kernel error kept me from fixing it myself.
