Hello Marco A. Mendez.

I have notified the group of MRT members who specialize in dealing with unbootable situations. Please sit tight until one of them responds.

It may take a day or two, but you will receive a response. In the mean time, please refrain from making any changes to the system or trying to fix the issue yourself.
