Use Clover to boot and install OS X - it bypasses the need to patch the BIOS.

Me too won't boot from UniBeast, I want to know who get it done for Asus cm6870? and what is the BIOS setting that would allow to boot thumb drive.
 
I get it done, and installed Sierra.

- Clover UEFI for 1st boot and install Sierra to my SSD, Clover Legacy boot won't work on this Mother board
- But multiBeast loader to my SSD need Legacy
- Display HD2500 / HD4000 won't work. I tried all of them 0x0166000x ..... and match the BOIS Vram size setting for ig-platform-id, try all ports VGA/DVI/HDMI but still not work for this motherboard. It only works on 0x01660005 but only assign 7M Vram.

Happy ending, I used my old GT9800 and change the config plist to VRAM 512 and working good now. GT9800 works VGA port only, I don't know how to make it work on DVI port.

- USB2&3/ Network / audio / bluetooth dongle bcm20702 works too
- Because of that's desktop I haven't test the wakeup, I alway disable sleep.

Asus P8H77-M pro cm6870 refurb motherboard / i5 3rd gen 4 cores / DDR3 still are available order online, good deal for building a i5 4 cores Mac.
