5960x Yosemite Install Guide

Not open for further replies.
I kept getting stuck on PCI Configuration when attempting to boot the installer and the OS without safe mode. After a couple of weeks of trying different flags and methods, I finally stumbled upon adding

Code:
debug=0x14e

to the kernel flags. This fixed both my installer and my OS. This may only apply to people doing a fresh install with this hardware as apposed to an upgrade from Mavericks.
 
fuzzypanda, i want to make passionate love with you right now!
 
can u post a image of your org.chameleon.boot.plist so i can see how to implement the code properly please?

I can tonight, but in Section 2, step 2 of OP's guide, just enter:

Code:
-v -f npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 [B]debug=0x14e[/B]

instead.
 
I have gotten further, installed the OS, ran multibeast, added bootflags with chameleonwizard, but i could only boot with -x until you posted this magnificent little line of letters that solved my headache that i had for 1 month with this motherboard.

:D

You can imagine how I felt when I tried to increase the debug logging and instead it booted perfectly! Congratz! You're probably the second person to accomplish a fresh install of Yosemite on this hardware.
 
I was about to give up on this installmethod completely, because i know too little about making a hack, so it takes forever to get information for me. And everyone else has different boards than x99-e WS.
 
Are you using clover for your boot loader?
 
No im using chimera, since i have heard that x99-e WS has memory map issues with clover.
 
i have asus REV and 5960x GTX680 and tried all from this post and nothing works... tried debug and all flags still get pic con begin ,,,, wonder whats the issue
