10.11.6 repeated update lsd in unexpected failure

I've never had this problem in 30 years on Mac.  I just did the 10.11.6 updating and now "unexpected lsd" repeats, do not launch applications, or terminal; so I have another small partition install can I use... im not very knowledgable about the Terminal on how to change the directories of my boot partition to fix the main drive...

I ran utilities, no problem.  I have seen discussions on/var/folders but have no idea how to use Terminal of a secondary boot volume to set the main volume... much gratitude in advance.

Safe Mode boot removes the system caches that might help.

Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

  1. Start or restart your Mac.
  2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
  3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.
