i did.

and when i install windows 10 in second partition then bootloader just show the boot menu and go to windows automatically. but by installing only mac and boot loader show up for a tiny second and says operating system not found. so that mean multibeast installs the bootloader but somehow bootloader can not go to menu.

I see no output from fdisk. Read post #50.

If you install Windows, the Windows bootloader will take over (after all, you installed Windows and the Windows bootloader is part of Windows). You'll need to re-install Chimera after installing Windows.

It could also be boot0 error (if you have a 4k/AF disk). When Windows is installed, Boot0 problem results in direct boot of Windows, not boot0 error. If that is the case, read here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/25-boot0-error-official-guide.html
 
thanks, that was really helpful thread.
 
as my laptop is always on full brightness. i was trying to fix brightness issue from your "dsdt guides".
I installed acpibacklight.kext and patch "Rename GFX0 to IGPU" to DSDT. but there was no brightness fixed. then I follow the backlight troubleshooting and i patch graphics_PNLF_ivy_sandy.txt but with that patch my laptop goes black after just booting. then i go back to old dsdt and this time i used patch graphics_PNLF-ACPI100.txt. this time it show brightness slider in display settings but is still on full brightness and makes no difference by sliding low or high.

i followed "
Your brightness keys (usually one of the Fn+F1...F12 keys) may be handled with PS2 or ACPI. Most newer computers use ACPI for these keys. If your trackpad is Synaptics and you're using my fork VoodooPS2Controller.kext (https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Voodoo-PS2-Controller), you can make either case work."

and even keyboard keys are working to slide up and down the brightness. (but still actual brightness light does not go low or high(always on high))

NOTE: I DID SOME RESEARCH ON MY ACER ULTRABOOK's DISPLAY CONNECTORS AND FOUND OUT THAT IS HAS LVDS CONNECTOR.

my DSDT is attached, could you please have a look.

Download patchmatic: https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-maciasl-patchmatic/downloads/RehabMan-patchmatic-2015-0107.zip
Extract the 'patchmatic' binary from the ZIP. Copy it to /usr/bin, such that you have the binary at /usr/bin/patchmatic.

In terminal,
Code:
if [ -d ~/Downloads/RehabMan ]; then rm -R ~/Downloads/RehabMan; fi
mkdir ~/Downloads/RehabMan
cd ~/Downloads/RehabMan
patchmatic -extract

Note: It is easier if you use copy/paste instead of typing the commands manually.

Post contents of Downloads/RehabMan directory (as ZIP).

Read the README: https://github.com/RehabMan/Laptop-DSDT-Patch
(it is clear you haven't read it and are not using MaciASL as intended)

Patch with "Brightness Fix (HD3000/HD4000)".
