I've tried nearly everything, SMC, PRAM, Reinstall, run every report possible but I cannot login into my Mid 2009 MBP.

I have reinstalled Mavericks for the second time just now and it is hung on a grey screen.

I can boot up into OSX Utilities mode.

I cannot boot up into safe mode.

This all started with the appearance of the Spinning Wheel of Death and progressed to Grey Screens when rebooting.

At first I thought it was lack of disk space so I connected to my HDD in Target mode and cleared things up so I have 30gigs free.

How do I identify what the problem is so I can fix it?
