Hi everyone, I'm gonna write some problem I having with the post installation of Yosemite on my new configuration.
I'm coming from this post: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-desktop-support/157823-installation-stuck-apple-logo.html
because i think this is the correct section for the problems I've right now.
The config is this:

Asus Z97-K 1150ATX
intel core i7 4790 4GHZ 8MB
Asus GTX960 2GB DDR5 (clocked version)
Corsair H80I Hydro Series wateCorsair Carbide 300R black tower
XFX ProSeries 550W
Adata SP900 128GB
Crucial M500 120GB
(x2) 5200rpm WD HD for data
RAM DDR3 Kingston (2x4) 1600MHz + DDR3 Corsair (2x4) 1600MHz
DVD/HDDVD/BLURAY LG

That's some problem:
After the installation I had some problems to boot correctly Yosemite because the loading bar stucked at half.

I tried to start the OS with -f and it works everytime, but with freeze once a while. So I've tried some combination with multibeast and now it seems stable except for four things:

1)the most important: in adobe premiere the videos don't start. I can view the files, browse with the cursor, but when i press play or space bar the video doesn't start, and is a problem because I'll make this mac only for video editing. Moreover when i press space with a clip selected in the finder the window opens but the cursor continues to load endlessly. I thing the two things are connected.

2)Yosemite don't start without the bootflag -f

2)Usb 3.0 read only little usbdrive, but don't my hard disk.

3)The system don't recognized audio output, but it's the least of the problems because at worst I'll buy an usb sound card.

Now, maybe I've made some confusion with multibeast and perhaps all the problems came from that, if so I ask some pious souls to explain me how to set multibeast according to my hardware.

Thanks
 
Your FakeSMC.kext is not loading because of invalid signature. Use boot flag "kext-dev-mode=1" and add the flag to your "org.chameleon.boot.plist". This flag is required to load unsigned kexts. FakeSMC.kext is a very important kext for all builds.

Is there one option "Legacy USB" in your BIOS?

Which audio codec you have in your system??

With that bootflag it works (I've tested it once). So if i install fakeSMC from multibeast it works anyway without insert the bootflag at the boot?
In BIOS there are some options for legacy, now is set like this:

Boot device control: UEFI and LEGACY OPROM
Boot from network devices: Legacy OPROM first
Boot from storage Devices: Legacy OPROM first
Boot from PCI-E/PCI Expansion Devices: Legacy OPROM first

The codec i used is ALC887.

For the playback of the clips are there any solutions?

For Yosemite, always we require this flag to load unsigned kexts.

Check for any USB Legacy Options are available or not

ALC887 is available in Multibeast.

What is the issue while performing playback?
 
-Is there a way to not insert that boot-flag everytime instead of sign that code in a plist boot file?

-About the sound, I've installed that codec but the motherboard doesn't recognized anything.

-The problem is related to the playback of every clip. For example, if I open videos with the preview in finder (with the spacebar) the window remain in loading mode but nothing works. Or, even worse, in Adobe Premiere if i click on play (in viewer window and in program window as well) it doesn't start.

Add the flag to your "org.chameleon.Boot.plist".

Try another kext for the codec.

Try with any of the .mov/.mp4 file. I think after the audio got enabled you will escape from this issue too..

Ok, I've added the line, but there's another problem. If i don't turn on the computer with the bootflag -f the load screen stuck in the middle of the bar and the apple turns into a barred circle. Why?
For the codec I'll try more than one but it doesn't work, I don't know why! I bought a usb sound card, hope that's work but I'm afraid that the problem with videos won't be solved.
Meanwhile, thanks for the reply.

Boot only with flag "-v" and post a photo of the frozen screen.
 
That's the pic, the verbose stucks almost at the beginning, after two or tree seconds.

While installing the multibeast, have you selected the option "Drivers > System > AppleRTC Patch for CMOS Reset" ??

Are you using any of the device with USB3.0 Port?? Also connect your HDD to first 3Gbps SATA port.

Install the below linked kext,
