hope i'm posting in the right place, if not i'm sorry. I'm trying to update from mountain lion to El Capitan. I've made the unibeast usb drive as per the instructions on this site but upon restart after installation of El Capitan the machine runs chimera instead of clover which of course...

yes, the usb ports are all functioning properly

sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. I'm running 10.8.4 with an i3 and a gigabyte ga-z77-ds3h. Previously i had an epson stylus r380 connected and i managed to print successfully from it about a year ago. I tried to print from it about 2 days ago and my computer showed it as "offline"...

so periodically my hackintosh will freeze for no apparent reason forcing me to hold down the power button to reset it, this has only been happening since the 10.8.3 update. I also have an issue with embedded flash video playback. my version of flashplayer is up to date and hardware acceleration...

ls just got me "library.forward" i tried "diskutil list" and i see both my hard drive and the usb drive with the boot1h file on it edit: guess i was making some capitalization errors because i just tried manually copying the boot1h file to my hard drive again and it works. i can now boot from...

installed mountain lion with unibeast but when i try to boot without my unibeast usb i get the boot0 error, i tried terminal commands like cd /volumes/"usb drive" but every time I'm told that there's no such file or directory. this worked when i did it with snow leopard so i don't know if theres...

solved with PCIRootUID=0 boot flag

i was running snow leopard 10.6.8 only to find that booting SL from the hard drive of an ivy bridge build (like mine) is impossible so i've been trying to update to mountain lion and everything went smoothly until i needed to boot for the second time from the unibeast usb drive to finish the...

tried switching to a dvi cable with and without boot flags, still no difference :banghead:

just tried that, didn't work :( edit: was reading about some similar issues and was wondering if using a dvi to vga converter could be causing this problem, something about mac os killing an analog signal? i don't know. :crazy:

not quite sure where to post this but i recently installed my nvidia geforce 460 and I'm currently in the process of installing mountain lion only problem is after booting from my unibeast usb and selecting my hard drive after it gets to the apple boot screen with the spinning wheel i lose...

downloaded/installed the update and it doesn't fail anymore but now it seems to be hanging at "running package scripts" :crazy: EDIT: took a couple more tries with the installer but everythings sorted now :)

I've tried redownloading mountain lion from the app store 3 times and I've switched to a second USB drive the installation error still persists. Mar 5 14:17:52 Geoffrey-Whittless-Mac-Pro Installer[366]: UniBeast Mac App Store Mountain Lion Installation Log Mar 5 14:17:52...

so i downloaded mountain lion from the app store to upgrade from 10.6.8 but when i try to run unibeast it almost immediately goes to an installation failed error. i've read about work arounds using the InstallESD.dmg file but i don't seem to have that file. :cry:

so, in an attempt to resolve an endless boot loop problem I get when trying to boot from the hard drive of with my new (and first ever) hackintosh build i found a tutorial explaining how to copy the "mach_kernel" file from the "/extras" folder of the iboot dmg into the /extras folder of my hard...
