Hi i create the USB using Unibeast (UEFI), my istallation starts correctly (i use disk utility too), but it stacks during the installation al 16 minutes for ever... .

Any tips?? thanksssss
 
Hello,

did you manage to fix this? I have made 5 USB installers and all do exactly the same thing as yours. My build is super simple and I've used it since lion no problem until now.

please let me know if you find anything as there's nothing on big list of solutions about it that I can see
 
thanks for the quick feedback!

unfortunately none of these issues seem like they are contributing factors.

i checked the Unibeast install log and it shows this;

10/12/15 07:47:30 - Starting UniBeast 6.0.0-20150930

10/12/15 08:28:22 - Installing Bootloader...
10/12/15 08:30:43 - Cleaning Up...
10/12/15 08:33:04 - Install Successful

Do you believe this is a Unibeast issue?

I am going to try re-downloading the app to see if it makes a difference as i don't think any other point is valid in my case.

At the very least you should boot in verbose mode so that you can see where the system is hanging.
If you can capture any information then post a screenshot.

And start your own thread instead of hijacking this one.
 
its the same issue as the OP, exactly the same issue so thought if the OP shares information then it would be more useful to others as one lump.

It doesn't hang during boot to installer, it hangs during installation as per OP, displaying the same information in the installer log then finally hanging;

This was a fresh re-download from the Mac App Store then a fresh installation onto the USB.

I am using nv_disable=1 to boot so nothing special either
 
Well after 8 attempts of making a USB drive no different to the first, this time it decided to work!

after 42,000 lines of errors in the installer log the progress bar decided to move until completion!

I'm now sitting on the desktop about to continue with installation.

incase it's of any use, this fault isn't just a hack issue as seen in the apple forums;
