Mavericks instal on System:
Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4
Intel i7 3930k
HX 850 PowerSupply
EVGA Geforce GTX 770
Second EVGA Geforce GTX 770
GSKI RipJawsZ F3-12800CL10Q2-64GBZL
Samsung SSD 256GB (Mavericks Boot Drive)
Seagate HDD 3TB (Storage Mavericks)
Seagate SSHD 1TB (Windows 8 Boot Drive)
(Note: End result did not accept an SLI connection between the dual graphic cards)
Installation:
1. PreBoot Installation:
I used the following guide as a starting point. Thank you “egotrippin” : http://www.tonymacx86.com/mavericks...igabyte-x79-up4-3930k-gtx-690-ocz-vertex.html
I used UniBeast 3,0 to instal OSX 10.9 Mavericks onto a bootable USB using Tonymac’s guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/374-unibeast-install-os-x-mavericks-any-supported-intel-based-pc.html
Once the bootable USB is created I also copied MultiBeast 6.1.0 and FileNVRAM.dylib onto the USB. FileNVRAM.dylib can be found easily in a quick Google search. (This fixes some login problems for certain apps) MultiBeast can be found using the Downloads menu at the top of this page.
2. USB Boot:
Boot from your USB using the following bootflags:
(I have read that the boot flag “-f” without the quotation make is also added to the end of this list in a lot of peoples set up but for mine it wasn’t needed)
3. Instal OSX from USB
Again following Tony Mac’s guide, Install OS X (make sure to use Disk utility to first make a GUID partition on the hard drive you wish you instal OS X on first and make sure the format is “Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and assign a name. i.e. I used the name “Mavericks”
After about 15-30 minutes, the instal will finish and upon restart boot from your USB but this time, select your boot drive (again in my case it was “Mavericks”) using the same bootflags as before.

Go through Maverick’s set up. Once desktop loads, copy MultiBeast to your desktop and then launch immediately.
MultiBeast Parameters used:
Themes: Take your pick ( I chose tonymacx86 remixed and then changed it later)
Once MultiBeast finishes, restart.
5. Post MultiBeast:
Upon restart use bootflags: -v -f npci=0x3000
At this point, your audio and Ethernet will most likely not work.
Copy FileNVRAM.dylib to \Extra\Modules and open \Extra\org.chameleon.Boot.plist and edit as so:
Once finished, reboot and everything should work. (I have read that the first time you reboot you have to use flags “-v -f” without the quotation marks and from there on out it should work without but mine started right up.
Everything runs smoothly including Audio and Ethernet which were the two biggest problems I was having.
