Okay, I'm up and running with the new update. Thank you for the above link. Bootstrap was the problem.
I guess the link is gone. But the info is in Paraflier's post above.
Those files are found in /system/bin
Followed the directions... Everything makes sense for Safestrap, except I had no "hijack" file.
I deleted "logwrapper" and renamed "logwrapper.bin" to just "logwrapper".
Rebooted, without any troubles, and am re downloading the ICS update. We shall see I suppose....
I read somewhere else that if you used forever root that might be the problem. I think that was what I used. Any thoughts from the group on what my next option is?
If you are on .905 use the modified 5.9.905 fxz in this thread. If you are on an ics leak .232 or before use the stock 5.9.905 fxz.

you can try and delete the forever root hack manually using root explorer. if you want it will write it up for you.
yea i know i got a notice that i exceeded my 250gb daily allowance so they suspended my account for 3 days.
open root explorer app and press mount r/w in the top right corner
with root explorer got to system/bin and open in text editor mount_ext3.sh by long pressing it and you will see at the bottom of the page
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su
chmod 4755 /system/app/Superuser.apk
one of them might have 475 (or something similar depending on how you forever rooted) it does not matter.
erase these 3 lines save and exit by hitting menu button. then reboot phone.

After it finishes the downloading phase and asks me to install now, the phone reboots to install and about a quarter of the way through the warning sign pops up over the Android's head and boots normally.What was the error

From my post (#24) above...I had this same issue.
Tried deleting Bootstrap and related files and still failed.
I then flashed the modified .905 file from this link (the one that does not delete data) and it worked.

Thanks to dfib for maintaining that post.

Thanks to dautley for that post.
Now to play...
That's what I plan on trying tonight. If that doesn't work, I'm just taking my phone in tomorrow and exchanging it for another Bionic.From my post (#24) above...
