Hi, I’m a newbie here!

My iMac didn’t recover from the latest OS X Yosemite update after the reload.

After doing a “command R” I noticed DiskUtilty was only showing the SSD part of my hard drive and to cut a long story short after messing around all week (wiping hard drive in diskutility/booting Yosemite from USB stick etc) I seem to have my full 3TB hard drive back with a fresh version of Yosemite on it.

I’ve been at this position before though and when I try and restore my iMac settings from TimeCapsule, it hangs about an hour into it and the Fusion drive needs to be repaired again.

Before trying to restore my time capsule backup again I’d like to know the current setup (clean install of Yosemite) is how it should be.

What I’d like know is what output I should expect to see from “distil list” from the Terminal?

Should it look like the below?

Any other suggestions to check the disk/Yosemite install would be greatly appreciated.

Just trying to verify the current health of iMac before proceeding as I’m not experienced in OS X at all
