Panic report when Yosemite boots, PLEASE HELP!

MBA won't startup, getting a panic report after a few seconds then continuous restarts, can't read the report or provide it in this question because its only visible for a split second, can't startup in safe mode or from recovery drive - so cant reinstall Yosemite. I've run the extensive Apple hardware test & no problems were encounted, tried resetting PRAM and SMC also but still no joy.


Please can someone help as i'm having a panic attack! :-)

Thank you.

Try what @pmiles mentioned in the link :

Boot in Single-User Mode

Type :


diskutil list

Under "TYPE NAME" look for something like "Apple_HFS Macintosh HD" which usually has the biggest "SIZE" (except first line, which is the hole hard drive).

Now look at "IDENTIFIER" column and check for "IDENTIFIER" of "Apple_HFS ...". usually it is disk0s2. Now try following commands :


/sbin/fsck_hfs -f -d /dev/disk0s2 (or something like disk0s2)

reboot
