The issue I have with that is it was working before with Lion. I even went back and made a Lion Unibeast and stated over and still the same issue. I think it is something in the boot.plist and I am back to using my graphics card so not the built in. GraphicsEnable=No works to let me boot up.
I'm trying new things for sure. I formatted the entire drive already Mac only same issue. I think its my boot plist. Ive been using chameleon wizard to change it. Still it boots up to this little prohibitory symbol above the apple logo. If I safe boot once then reboot I can get to the loving...
I sure could use some help I am getting so close.
Here is what I did so far.
Made a new unibeast with Mountain Lion
-Pulled out my ATI graphics card
Booted to USB and erased the hard drive
Installed ML
-Shut down computer and inserted graphics card.

Final update for now. Ok so the last thing I did was put my Graphics card back in. My ATI 6xxx
Rebooted to USB and choose mac lion. Booted right to the apple setup screen. No problem. SOmething with my internal built in graphics.
Anyway Im going to just stick with Lion for now. Until someone...
UPDATE:
Ok so I decided that ot may be something with Mountain Lion and lets go back to Lion because I know that worked. I even wiped the entire drive so I got rid of the windows partition. Rule it all out. I made a new unibeast with Lion, erased my drive once more. Followed all the steps...
Ok I am really needing some help here. I am thinking this issue is because I have a windows partition. I found another article on here. http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-lion-desktop-guides/61626-official-customac-mini-2011-guide-notes-progress.html
-So. I added in Mountain Lion Boot.plist...
I think it all has to do with the USB 3.0 and mountain lion. I have disabled the USB 3.0 controllers in BIOS and am performing the install again. I will update soon.
Flashed bios to F8
-Erased and installed, same issue spinning rainbow after apple logo
-safe booted and unibeast to DSDT file for F8
-rebooted same issue
-rebooted to Hard drive no USB, got the prohibitory symbol at the apple logo.

Yeah thanks for the insight. I tried unplugging everything already. -x will perform a safe boot. The DSDT file should take care of all those kext files. I haven't put the graphics card in at all. so my built in should at least work.I booted to safe boot then ran Multibeast.
Thats my issue yes. The prohibitory symbol. It is a small white square above the apple logo. it has a circle with a slash running through it.
I took the graphics card out and I keep it our the entire time. I was going to put it back in after it was all done.
I erase and install and when I...
Now when I have finished the installation and I restart I boot to the USB, and choose my mac partition I get past the apple logo, but where the login screen should be I only get the cursor for a second then the spinning rainbow wheel.
Now I am stuck here with a spinning rainbow wheel. Safe...
Currently I am doing the following:

-Download Snow Leopard install dog from app store

Now I am going to boot to USB unibeast and launch disk utility, erase Mac partition and install 10.8 fresh install
