Anybody with the "Essentials.pkg" Error

Maxmem flag, without -x or - preffix just "maxmem=8192" without quotes, fixed it for me.
I have Z97 Broadwell 5675C and 4x8 GB ram.

If you have new Nvidia Card (750Ti/9xx) you dont need to inject Nvidia (but you could i doesnt matter) in Unibeast and you need add flag nv_disable=1 to boot into installer otherwise computer would be restarter during installation boot.

I thing that primary problem which people have is they dont know, how to use the flags properly.

You can check if is flag working in system information before installation.

what i did to solve this on my laptop was to use maxmem=4096 while i had installed 2x8gb ram sticks
and i didnt want to open the laptop and replace ram with the 4gb stock that helped me ,hope it will help others!

i guess, the problem is with the RAMs too... since i am using a custom pc to setup el capitan, i opened the case and removed one of the 8gb ram... so with only 1x8gb ram, it did not give any error and installed el capitan smoothly... after that i replaced the 8gb ram back into the case... now it's working great with 16gb ram without any problem...

i have tried maxmem thing before unplugging the ram, but it did not work for me... so i removed the ram
if maxmem isn't working for you, try to remove one of the rams too
