OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.5 Update causes Kernel Panic

Can you post the kernel panic log?

Those might have indicated what caused the panic.

If you were able to boot into Safe Mode, it was very likely incompatible third-party software causing the panic.

How did you disable all autostart programs? There is no easy way besides booting into Safe Mode. The list in your Login Items is not the only ones there are.

The easiest way I know is to run EtreCheck. It was created by one of the posters here, etresoft.

It will list everything that could be a culprit.

I also had VirtualBox installed before this morning update.

Come back after luch, rebooted and got kernel panic.

With recovery utility tested the HD, found errors.

Repaired, verified ok.

Then rebooted, again kernel panic!

Called Apple support.

Booted into safe mode.

Cleaned all caches, startup apps and so on...

Reboot... again kernel panic!

They said to backup my SSD HD using safe mode.

Then try to reinstall Mac Os X.

What you guys think?

Please....

So booting in safe mode worked. So the Problem might be the Intel HAX kernel extension or the virutal box stuff, correct?

Or the com.eltima.eveusb.kext.arbiter stuff. Any kernel extension essentially changes the operating system. And what is going on with your Safari RAM?

More importantly, you aren't even running 10.8.5.

Here are the possible problems:

com.intel.kext.intelhaxm (1.0.6)

NO of course Im not running 10.8.5 anymore! After the kernel Panic I just restored me entire mac back to an hour before the update. I could not spend more time on solving that issue 😉

Nobody can help much if you install a new operating system before we get a chance to give you any suggestions.

How would you proceed further? Deinstalling all the stuff that might does problems and update again?

Review your 3rd party software. Any time you install a 3rd party software that contains a kernel extension, you are changing your operating system. You aren't running 10.8.4 anymore. You are running some hybrid. This is true pretty much anytime you give your admin password to some 3rd party installer from anywhere that isn't the Mac App Store. Apple performs no compatibility testing for 3rd party software. Typically, 3rd party software performs no compatibility testing for Apple. If you have any such software installed, and you have a bunch, you must contact each and every one and make sure that it is compatible not just with 10.8.5, but with the other kernel extensions you have. Even if they have tested to make sure their software runs with 10.8.6, they have not tested iwth 10.8.5 and your other kernel extensions. There is no separation between kernel extensions. Any one can corrupt any other.

There are a few 3rd party kernel extensions that are known to be problematic. There are a few that are known to be reliable and well-supported. But if you have having kernel panics, your only option is to uninstall all of them from the vendor's official uninstallation instructions. If one of them doesn't have uninstall instructions, then that is probably your most likely candidate for causing problems.

Ok, cleaned those third parties stuff, now it reboots fine!

Thank you.

I then installed VirtualBox 4.2.18 again, no problem booting, so it was one of the the others, who knows which one....
