Cool, thanks for the additional info! I did not see the port limit patch discussion (my bad, sorry). I will look up the patch limit patch and try first... Just for kicks, since it's a new PC, I also decided to try installing a known good version of Ubuntu. It locks up as well (citing HUB0)...

Getting the OSX install screen to appear instead of the circle slash icon with garbled text with "still waiting for root device" appearing at the bottom, which indicates a USB problem - it's the same problem I'd been posting updates on over the last few days, regardless of numerous attempts with...

Grand... feels like I'm running out of options and most people who've followed all this to the letter have gotten farther. Like a needle in a haystack I did look through posts 1-10, and I still get get past step G (I'm using a single HDD and not dealing with a dual boot situation). Would love...

Tried it again. Moving USB stick. Didn't work, same circle and slash. After " waiting for root device", a USBMSC identifier appeared. 4C530001181023116023 0x781 0x5581 0x100, 3 I shut down and repeated the process but without moving USB stick. Either way, same and result. :(

191b0000 also causes the circle with line. Not sure what you mean by moving USB stick. I tried that at the splash screen but clover became unresponsive. It still sounds like the issue is somehow usb-related due to "waiting for root device"... no clue as to what else I overlooked. Though the...

Much thanks! I have now done F4 in Clover and am working on figuring out how to disassemble - am stopping for now at preparing tools for disassembly. Looks like a beast but it sounds like that, from here, it's disassembling, changing code to point to fix USB (I was able to see more of "Waiting...

Also tried the original OptioFix again, didn't work. Switched back to OptioFix2 and used SafeMode (-x) along with -f. No difference, same circle slash. Tried all ports.

I forgot how much faster USB3 was. :p Using the -f and other USB options above, and 191b2346, using a freshly formatted USB3 stick with the same EFI contents I copied over (plus the kexts I'd indicated above), the result was the same - circle slash. :(

Oops. I mistook what you said. I've now got my USB3 stick back out (I used it originally until I switched to a USB2 stick...) and am doing a fresh Unibeast install prior to the attempt... Will also double-check the Clover kexts to make sure the GenericUSB3Kext is in there, and I will see if...

I had tried going back and forth between all 3 ports (in hopes one would have yielded success), the USB stick itself is USB2... When testing and documenting, I did use the same settings on all 3 ports, changing the graphics ID if the first time around didn't work (the second time typically had)...

http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/yosemite-hangs-on-usbmsc-identifier.144857/ Not quite the same situation but I tried a few things... Adding -f, USBBusFix=Yes, USBLegacyOff=Yes, into boot parameters next to -v had no effect. Before yet another slash circle, I read the USBMSC Identifier -...

Oh, immediately above the "waiting" garbled, there was another line - also garbled, but I think the line started with what looked like "USBMSC". Am doing research since I found a post about USBMSC hanging on Yosemite installs... (except the kext_dev_mode=1 kernel flag is already being enabled...)

Thanks! I replaced the Aptio driver with AptioFix2... All 3 USB slots have a blue logo - 2 ports on left, 1 on right. I recall reading the laptop has 1xUSB3 and 2xUSB2. Am presuming the sole USB slot on the right is USB3 and the ones on the left are USB2. The stick is USB2 anyway. Using...

This has been driving me up the wall over the last day -- I too am having the same problem as other people, including carcinogen above, where the boot screen stops after the first two lines. BIOS configured identically to post #01. Using EFI to boot. Ensuring the graphics type 19160000 or even...

Will let you know once I've got OSX installed on this model laptop (7559), though I've an idea... There are a few quirks with installing 10.11.5, even with the downloaded code that I altered based on others' situations as reflected in this thread... (I still get to the circle/slash halt point...

Attempting to duplicate the 7559 setup, as close as possible, had no effect: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-dell-inspiron-15-7559-skylake-i7-6700hq-intel-hd-530-using-clover.191921/ My 5559 has bios version 1.1.5 (I did not attempt the latest version, 1.1.9) Worst case scenario, I...

((Note: Sig line has system components of this laptop, i7-6500U (Skylake), integrated HD 520 graphics)) Thought I would post this thread in case anyone has the same model, and if I find a solution I'll be quick to post it. I downloaded El Cap 10.11.5 after reading people having some successes...

I've got a very similar model (specs below, which I will add to my profile and sig). 10.11.4 is said to have better compatibility with Skylake than earlier versions, and with some patching I'm still reading about. I wasn't able to get .4 but was able to get .5 downloaded. Using the USB2 slot...

I do. On X99 hardware. Parallels sometimes causes beachballing while in use (XP, Win7), to the point I am forced to reboot. This will probably get better once proper chipset drivers are supported.

I have been able to install Parallels and migrate machines, but when running them I get freezes and beachballs that ultimately hang the machine, even if the mouse moves and keyboard lights light up. i7-5820k Gigabyte X99M-Gaming 5. Parallels worked perfectly on supported chipsets, so I...
