[QUOTE="brianv1980, post: 1336452, member: 226962"] Hello, I am new here and would like to say hello I have a new iMac (2011) upgraded to lion. I performed the safari update yesterday. It asked me to reboot so I said ok. Upon reboot I saw the apple screen then the pinwheel for about 5 mins. Then I see the unix commands in the background telling me to hard reboot. So I do that now my iMac takes 5 mins to boot. After boot everything is fine. I have reset pram, verified permissions, verified the disk and all good. I get this in verbose mode Running fsck on the boot volume **/dev/rdisk0s2 (no write) **root file system Executing fsck_hfs (version diskdev_cmds-540~34) Hfs removed 0 orphaned/unlinked files and 6 directories. That is where it sits for about 4-5 mins then boots please any other ideas, otherwise apple care it is for $150. [/QUOTE]
