I cleverly managed to drop my rMBP 13" (2013) about 2 feet onto a hard floor last week. Since then, I've not been able to boot OS X Sierra successfully, either from the internal drive, or the bootable backup I created a few weeks before. The system isn't entirely dead - it will boot to Recovery mode, and it will boot Linux (from a live USB), but when booting OS X, it hangs at the Apple logo. I've tried enabling verbose output and booting safe mode, and the hang is after it has initialized the graphical display (i.e. console output has disappeared).
I'm assuming that this is a hardware issue, but the fact that it will boot into Recovery and Linux seems odd. Any ideas/suggestions for troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks!
