Hi,
I've been recently trying to get Mountain Lion running on my PC after several hours of not being able to boot the installer, I managed to get it with some simple boot flags. I installed Mountain Lion and my computer then rebooted. I booted up and selected my new ML install, apple logo appeared and pinwheel started spinning. It sat like this for a good 20mins and did not boot. I then tried booting with -v to see what my issue was. The boot stopped at a section that stated: USBF: Found a transaction which hasn't moved in 5 seconds on bus 0xfa, timing out. This message repeated several times then stopped. I'm stuck, any help would be appreciated. photo.JPG

edit: I used UniBeast to install ML
 
I'm also a noob but could you post up your system?

That info might be helpful, since I know that when I was installing (I have a HD 6870), I couldn't get my installation to boot initially without using "GraphicsEnabler=no"
Just trying to help. Good luck, I'm sure someone here can help you!

What boot flags did you use when you installed?
 
The only boot flag that would allow me to install was -x which I believe is safe mode
