mbp5,5 mid-09 2.26 ghz c2d, 8gb ram, 128gb Samsung 840pro ssd, 500gb wd blue, 10.8.2
installed my solid state drive and got everything working fine. decided to encrypt all my various hard drives (two onboard, TM, carboncopy disk) and now I can't log in to my user account. It takes my password (eventhough i had it set to auto login) but then stalls for a bit before giving me an error like "unable to login to account due to and error," and sends me back to the login screen. I assumed permissions were messed up, but verifying/repairing both ssd and hd has yielded nothing. a quick search on apples site gave me nothing. I tried restoring to the TM image from yesterday, but same problem.
I am suspicious that I f#cked something up when I was encrypting the ssd, as carbon copy informed me that I needed a recovery partition on the drive if I wanted to encrypt it, so I created one. now when I boot, there are two recovery partitions to choose from.
Anyone have any suggestions before I reinstall osx, or try to restore to the carbon copy backup?
