[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1631052, member: 110816"] Welcome to Mac-Forums.. Working through the steps, you went to Mac App Store and began the Yosemite download. Did the download finish and then begin the Yosemite installation? It is at this time that a restart would have been attempted.. I don't imagine upgrading from Mountain Lion to Yosemite as opposed to Mavericks to Yosemite should be an issue, but it looks like the Yosemite installer has at least setup the recovery console to re-install Yosemite in the future which is why you are seeing the option there, otherwise it would still be pointing to Mountain Lion.. If you can get in on Safe mode, you can save the documents you want, otherwise your only recourse might be to go through the recovery partition, erase and re-install Yosemite and then bring back your data through the Time Machine backup..
