had the same issue on an imac...after upgrade failed but restored to factory osx. try reinstaling previous os but if its under warranty should be covered if its a hardware issue but for spares takes 3 to 4wks or even more depending on where u purchased it.

@Mark,
That is covered by warranty.
I don't think installing any software on the Mac voids your warranty so bootcamp, Unix, etc on the Mac should be perfectly legal. I believe warranty is usually on hardware. Software can be reinstalled.

My macbook hard drive is failing s.m.a.r.t with no prior problems. I recently upgraded from 10.7.5 to 10.8.2 but I doubt that could be the cause. It started with osx refusing to boot and soon it could only open recovery.
The machine is only about 8 months old and this is highly unusual no? I have windows on a bootcamp partition but should this be an issue?
This should be covered by warranty shouldn't it?
