I think you may have corrupted nonvolatile memory.  Try doing a
complete PRAM wipe: turn the computer on while holding Cmd+Opt+P+R
and let it do several reboot / PRAM wipe cycles in a row.  Five or
six is probably enough.  (The first PRAM wipe doesn't clear
everything.  The firmware watches to see if you do several in a row
and will do successively more thorough resets on each iteration.)
