Yes. It was a virgin install. 10.7 from a Apple-branded OSX Install stick, 10.7.4 via OSX built-in software update.
I am primary concerned with PGP 10.2.1, but I did also test 10.2.0 MP4 and MP5, and they produced the same result on two different laptops.
There were no FileVault Disks present.
Active Directory is not in use.
I hadn't tried verbose mode, but after another clean reinstall of OSX, I'm trying now. I've been toiling with two macbooks for the last week trying to find a sequence that worked.
I installed pgp again, which promptly bricked the machine. Booting in verbose mode, I notice that Symantec's Copyright banner prints twice, then
Block Storage Driver on-line
pgpwde:AES-NI CPU support not detected.
Then it waits for root device indefinitely. I've attached a screenshot in case someone else can make better sense of it. The photo was taken before it started "waiting for boot device/volume" That line repeats every minute or so.
If I boot with the option key held down, there are two choices presented:
OS Disk (My OS Disk, which fails with a prohibition sign)
Recovery HD (Which boots into an OS X recovery environment)
Other users facing this problem: please do a command+v and take a picture of how your boot fails.
