From any internal or external drive. I can access the recovery partitions, and have run Disk Utility, which reports no issues on any volume. Boot up appears to begin, and then stalls either at the logo and spinning indicator, which spins forever, or in Yosemite, it goes to a white screen after the progress bar has gone about a third of the way across. I have externals disconnected, and have tried numerous time to boot with just single internal drives installed. Same result every time. NVRAM resets and power resets (numerous) have accomplished nothing. The only thing I can get to is the recovery partition on one or another drive, one Mavericks and one Yosemite.
Trying to start in safe mode, but still stuck on the spinner. Any thoughts?

It booted up correctly when I first started today, but I wanted to check the Xprotect version on an external drive and booted from that one. At some point, I started getting a bunch of error messages about improperly installed kexts, had to power off to get out of that loop, and after that, it has not been possible to boot from any drive.
