Good news for x99 10.11 [Haswell E - El Capitan]

[kwaiet]

Hello,
I see that you got your hackintosh running. I have the same setup and am not able to get past the bios. It won't go to the bootup screen. I then read that you must patch the kernel before getting it to boot.
Is there any place you have read here that has a step by step guide for noobs to get this up and running? I see the step by step from tonymac, but then I read other people with this combo and they talk about patching, but there are steps missing, like where is the /extras folder in the usb stick?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Cheers,
Elvin

Thanks for the link.
The problem I seem to have now which is not addressed in the youtube video there is this
1. The video there is installing with Yosemite. He says to format as Master Boot Record and use "Legacy"
It makes a unibeast and I update clover. But when I go to clover configurator, it does not show the USB as a mountable EFI disk.

2. Another video for El Cap, says format as GUID partition. But when I go to Unibeast, it will start and then it stops and says can't copy Base Install files.

I don't know where am I going wrong?
Thanks for any help

I haven't followed any Youtube video, only the written guide from user Malki on the link that I've posted, and I managed to install El Cap on my configuration without any trouble, so to speak. Only difference is that I have installed 10.11.3, and the guide is for 10.11.2, in the newer itineration of OS, the integrated audio is still not working, but I use external USB interface, so no prob there.

Do you have the same MoBo, Cpu etc?

Edit: If you mean the video that is linked in the guide, you just need to download the "Efi mount 2" from the link in the video description/ and if you are following that guide, I suggest to reply on that thread.

I believe I have the USB stick ready to go, after watching videos and reading the guide. But now I am stuck at the bios. The computer turns on and goes into bios. When I say boot with USB, it goes back to BIOS.

Then the USB does not have boot files the system recognizes on it.

turns out there was a problem with the USB itself. Got it to load clover now. But after booting, these are the 2 screens I get.
I have tried to search for Aptiofx error and the Mac Framework initialized.

For the Aptiofx, I hear people saying it should be Aptiofx and others say it should be Aptiofx2???

The Mac Framework one, I have not found a clear answer

After some tweaking, I think I've passed the previous post. But now, this is what shows up.
Sorry to keep posting here. This computer is for work and we are coming up on deadline.
Thanks for all the help and tips you guys have given.
