Karabiner Elements 12.1.5 (updated to beta after reading some previous suggestions) Had downloaded but never successfully used Karabiner Elements on previous machine. Should have transferred 1:1 but I know sometimes permissions may get lost. Might be affected by the fact that I recently got a new computer and set it up using the Migration Assistant. Not working over here and tried all the solutions I can find. I already had Karabiner-Elements installed, and when the system came up for its first boot post-install, I encountered the issue.
#MAC SIERRA KARABINER ELEMENTS EISU UPGRADE#
Whether this is something to do with the .VirtualHIDDevice.v060800 kernel extension or not is a little beyond my understanding, though.ĮDIT: Background to this becoming an issue was an upgrade from Sierra to High Sierra.

This is strange as verbose mode loads kernel extensions as normal (as I understand it, anyway) it is not like safe mode or single-user mode. If I select "verbose mode" (Cmd+V after the loading chime on power-on) then the system boots as normal. I've left the machine in that state for upwards of an hour, and it still doesn't finish booting. There isn't any info in the system.log that I could find. High Sierra 10.13.6 with Karabiner-Elements 12.1.5 causes my machine to hang at the MacOS loading screen, with the loading bar reaching 100% eventually if left long enough.
