Have got the iMac working again, having typed in the commands you sent me last time. However, the commands weren't recognised and after viewing a long list of other available commands I chose exit and was returned to OSX mountain lion and everything seems to be working. I tried to use Onyx to see if I could repair any glitches, but the version I have doesn't work with M Lion. Do you have any recommendations to sort out things?
