No luck booting in either safe mode or without caches and injected kexts.

Should I have installed in UEFI or Legacy? I used UEFI.

Should be using OsxAptioFix2Drv not OsxAptioFixDrv which should be default if you followed the guide that you linked.

UEFI.
 
I'm using Multibeast 8.1, which the "Features" .pdf says uses OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi.

Should I try Multibeast 8.2.3?

Worth a try.
Your screenshot says that you don't have OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi.
 
Some progress... Used Multibeast 8.2.3. Now I get 2-3 boot loops and then it starts successfully. One time when I chose restart from the ElCap desktop, I got the attached messages.

Then I booted in verbose, tried my best to capture a shot before it rebooted. It's very fast.

My guess is that you probably made some wrong selections in MultiBeast.
To troubleshoot reinstall then in MultiBeast install one thing at a time then restart.
That way you will discover which selections are correct (and the bad ones too).
 
cpus=1 seems to help... I want to try it in my config.plist. Should I create new string tags or put it in the existing one? In other words...

Should I enter it like this:
<key>Arguments</key>
<string>dart=0</string>
<string>cpus=1</string>

...or like this:
<key>Arguments</key>
<string>dart=0 cpus=1</string>

See : https://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/Boot#Arguments

If you cannot figure it out then edit your config.plist with CloverConfigurator :
