Two iMacs will not boot after the 10.11.4 update.

Two iMacs will not boot after the 10.11.4 update. Progress bar starts to move then text appears on the black screen saying unexpected sigkill of launchd. It then gets stuck in a loop of trying to boot. Tried resetting SMC and PRAM. No success. Booted into recovery mode and ran disk utility. Drives reported OK. Chose to reinstall OS X from the recovery mode option list (presume this would be 10.11.4). Install completed but again fails to boot. Reinstalled 10.11.0 successfully from a USB stick and downloaded the 10.11.4 combo updater. The installation appears to work but again the macs will not boot. Same "unexpected sigkill of launchd" error. One mac is now back working properly with 10.11.3 the other will be shortly. Is there a problem with the updaters? Our IT support use Munki to push out updates overnight. Thankfully we were able to stop this before the other 20 or so macs had the same problem.

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

Had the same problem. I've updated to 10.11.4, succeeded installing it, but during booting it would go to darkscreen/shutdown. Also couldn't enter Safe Mode, so I entered Recovery Mode (cmd+R during boot) to try repairing the HDD with Disk Utility, but errors occurred and couldn't fix it.


Fix:


1. Connected the mac through thunderbolt to another one in Target Disk Mode.

2. Used Disk Warrior to fix the partition.

3. It works!

I'm having the same issue (I think) but I do not have a SUIDGuardNG.kext file on the machine. 2011 iMac 27"


Tried Verbose boot to see what's going on, it finished verbose "booting" with no errors and proceeded to a white screen. Mouse was movable but the OS never loaded.


Tried booting into safe mode, no go.


Tried recovery, checked the disk, no errors.


Any other thoughts on what else it could be?

Mar 23, 2016 3:05 PM in response to Martin Montgomery

Thank you! That fixed it for me: renamed SUIDGuardNG.kext to SUIDGuardNG.kext.hld and rebooted.


The kernel panic prevented me from booting into Safe Mode, Recovery OS install gave the same problem - probably because it just reinstalled the version with the 10.11.4 update.


I had to boot into my bootable backup from a couple of months ago to access /Library/Extensions and make the change.

Mar 24, 2016 3:10 AM in response to Martin Montgomery

Hi Martin, thanks for that hint. For me it worked like charm while before I failed with various other solutions. I deleted the file SUIDGuardNG.kext, booted in safe mode and installed the 10.11.4 combo update in less than 10 minutes. Now everything running smoothly again and I am on 10.11.4. Whast was that file SUIDGuardNG.kext needed for in previous versions? Does somebody know? Thanks again, regards, Martin 😉

Mar 24, 2016 9:55 AM in response to marode23

I don't have SUIDGuard at all


I havel the following KEXTs


ACS6x.kext EPSONUSBPrintClass.kext

ATTOCelerityFC8.kext HighPointIOP.kext

ATTOExpressSASHBA2.kext HighPointRR.kext

ATTOExpressSASRAID2.kext PromiseSTEX.kext

ArcMSR.kext SoftRAID.kext

CalDigitHDProDrv.kext SystemAudioRecorder.kext


Only one that is unique to my iMac is SystemAudioRecorder.kext and the EPSON print driver.

Mar 26, 2016 2:46 PM in response to Ender1978

i'm in the same boat ... 2014 mac pro updated fine ... 2013 mac mini updated fine ... 2012 mbp retina update to 10.11.4 failed ... no SUID*.kext file exists on the MBP ... tried both combo update and updating via the app store ... both failed ... restored back to 10.11.3 3 times ... sticking on 10.11.3 as i don't have the time to figure out why the update is failing ...

Mar 26, 2016 4:13 PM in response to TJF@DENVER

Someone else pointed out that the DIsk Sensui/Trim Enabler extension resulted in similar behavior. I have found that the Cindori extensions did interfere with my system updates and the writer suggests disabling it, upgrading, then re-enabling. I think it makes sense to go through ALL your kexts in their various folders and remove anything that isn't Apple's or obviously needed (e.g. VMWare). Check the dates, too. I had some remarkably old Adobe rubbish sitting around.

Mar 26, 2016 4:33 PM in response to Davert

thanks for the reply/idea's ... i have roughly 433 *.kext's spread out amongst my file system ... any idea as to which one(s) could be the culprit?

I am not an expert but I would try disabling:


  • Kapersky
  • LogMeIn
  • Parallels


Make sure XCode is up to date. I don't have klif on my system as far as I can tell.


If you can upgrade, get the LATEST versions and if you absolutely need them, reinstall.


Oh, and make sure you are set to always boot in verbose mode so you can watch what is happening. I was going to video the boot so I could find the error messages.

Two iMacs will not boot after the 10.11.4 update.
