I have a working Yosemite build with a Rampage IV Extreme (not black) on clover. I'm trying to update to the El Cap public beta but every time I boot into the installer partition (when trying to do an in place upgrade) I get a kernel panic because of appleintelcpupowermanagement.kext.

I've tried putting nullcpupowermanagement into /kexts/10.11 but that doesn't seem to work. I can't figure out how to get into the partition that the installer makes to remove the kext. I tried disk utility with debug mode enabled and it doesn't show any new partitions after running the installer.

I also tried playing with the config.plist and I added rootless=0 and tried kext-dev-mode=1 but nothing helped. I've tried booting safe/verbose/without kext caches etc nothing worked, it kept kernel panicking.
I also tried making a USB stick with the installer, but that one keeps getting stuck on pci configuration.

I'm running an nvidia gtx 780 using stock apple kexts.

gabrieljsmith1,

Hi did you succeed with installing El Cap on that board?

I am asking because I am putting together my first build and considering that board for it.
