My system used to rock older version of mac os sometime back, and even couple months ago I had El Capitan running when only test/preview tonymacx86 tools were available. Couple days ago I wanted to see what is new and try to install it again. Sadly, no luck.
My first question is regarding my...
I too have older, 6 series hardware. Created usb install drive using unibeast with legacy mode. UEFI mode wouldn't boot from usb for me.
Didn't change much in BIOS either. Even kept the overclock settings.
Install was pretty straight forward, didn't have to unplug my windows drives, bluetooth...
When creating USB stick there is an option for laptop support.

This is much better now.
Fresh OS Install. Then installed MultiBeast with same options as before but with following changes
- Didn't pick FaceCMS because it's already installed by DSDT-Free options

Then...

I have downloaded and patched the bios with modified file. As I mentioned earlier I extracted dsdt, patched (p8 generic for 3xxx, recommend for Asus boards with compile errors after using mb specific patch. plus there is no patch for gen3 version of my board. Also alc889 patch) , compiled and...
I have Asus Maximus IV Gene-z/Gen3. Bios is patched with 3501 Modified bios. While in windows, I extracted DSDT, applied P8 generic (3xxx bios) patch then ALC 889 patch (chip under shiny sticker). One more fix and I was able to compile and get DSDT. Now I have also got myself 8GB Unibeast with...
It goes pass apple loading screen (gray screen, apple logo in center with loading circle below). Then when GUI is supposed to come up, mouse appears at top left, after couple seconds cursor changes to spinning thing.
I will still post -v log to see if something is missing.
