32 bits boot.efi doesn't work with OS X El Capitan Security Update 2016-001 #18

Unfortunately, the 32 bits boot.efi doesn't work with the Security Update 2016-001 for OS X El Capitan. The boot process throws error, and the system reboot constantly.

I've checked bothboot.efi files in /usr/standalone/i386 and /System/Library/CoreServices, and PlatformSupport.plist file as well: no one has been touched or updated by this patch. The problem seems to rely on some new kernel incompatibility with the 32 bits boot.efi.

I'm sorry, I don't have any textual log or error output. The only thing I can join to this report is a boot screen photo with the crash.

The only solution was to restore my full system using Time Machine...

Security Update 2016-001 Crash

Finally, it seems something did go wrong during the Security Update 2016-001 installation process: I've done another test on the cloned partition without any problem.

Sorry for this false alarm.
