Can't boot Yosemite or El Capitan Installer e6410-Nvidia

• Reset BIOS, Disable VT for Direct IO, Set HDD mode to AHCI.
• Change Bootloaders from Chameleon to Clover
• Place AppleACPIPlatform Kext inside Clover kext directory.
• Have removed AppleACPIPlatform from S/L/E

I am unable to boot any version of OS X yosemite(10.10, 10.10.1,...) on my latitude e6410. I have tried both Chameleon and Clover and receive ACPI kernel panics. This is also affecting my El Capitan usb installer too.

Here are some steps I have tried to resolve this issue and they have failed:

• Reset BIOS, Disable VT for Direct IO, Set HDD mode to AHCI.
• Change Bootloaders from Chameleon to Clover
• Place AppleACPIPlatform Kext inside Clover kext directory.
• Have removed AppleACPIPlatform from S/L/E

Strangely this does not affect any distro's I have tried from booting into the installer. However an el capitan distro has not been released yet plus vanilla installations seem to go smoother.

My system specs are:

Dell Latitude E6410
i5-560M
NVS 3100M
465GB HDD
6GB RAM
BIOS A16

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
