For any of you out there having this problem while trying to boot from the usb to do your ML install, and you get the white screen of death, I have the fix for you! (Radeon 6xxx)
I know that with my Radeon card, it was driving me nuts that every time I tried to boot from the usb, it would always boot up to the white screen with the black mouse and I couldn't do anything. After much searching, I finally found an answer at another forum! (I would love to give them credit, but not sure if cross posting or cross mentioning is allowed, so I'll just post the fix here. If it is allowed, I'll post a link to the forum and people to give full credit)
After you prepare your usb stick, go in and totally cut ATI6000Controller.kext out of the usb stick and paste it somewhere that you can install it back to your main hdd after the install with Kext Wizard if you have any of the 6xxx cards. Once you get installed from the usb, reboot and you will be able to use Kext Wizard to put the kext back to where it belongs. (or do it manually if you know what you are doing ) After you replace the ATI6000Controller.kext file, then reboot again and your graphics will be good to go!
