This happened to me on beta 1 when I activated TRIM, I had to do a reinstall. That is the route I would suggest for you.

Yeah, never run beta software without backing up your data.
Heck, even if you're running a stable OS you should be backing up your data. Never know when a drive will fail.

And given how easy to use Time Machine is, there's really no reason not to use it.

I ve been using mac for 10 years now , and never had ANY problem… So , from now i'll do backups.
thanks guys !
 
I wouldn't want to be picky, but the title of this thread and several comments by forum members are wrong. The second beta has NOT appeared yet, and neither has the first one. Apple announced the first (public) beta would appear in the summer. So far, two developer previews have appeared. Developer Previews (DPs) are just that, not betas.
 
works now

I got it work with recovery :)

Thanks !
Now im doing a backup :D
 
For some reason I feel the need to point out these aren't betas, they are developer previews... I woundnt think of installing these on production machines that I would have to worry about even having backups of.
