Could you please point me to where I made the mistake?

if you had read it and followed it, you wouldn't be asking

anyway, this part:
The resulting drivers64UEFI should look something like this:


Note: You may have VboxHfs-64.efi there too. But it doesn't matter. It will be disabled by the config.plist.

Preparing essential kexts

Remove EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, leaving just 'Other'

Copy essential kexts to the 'Other' directory (FakeSMC, VoodooPS2Controller). You only need the kexts that allow you to boot and operate the installer. Other kexts that you might use in the final installation can wait.

I always use my own versions of these kexts:
FakeSMC.kext: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-FakeSMC-kozlek
VoodooPS2Controller.kext: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Voodoo-PS2-Controller
GenericUSBXHCI.kext: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Generic-USB3

but i didn't carry on checking the rest, i will let you do the checking

I changed that, but it had no effect. Further dropping the tables to the maximum described in the guide produces a restricted sign (yes, on verbose) and "still waiting for root device".

Not dropping OEM tables fixes this, but then the boot never finishes as described before.

How come the USB bootloader works fine?

Please tell me how did you unlock the BIOS to change advanced BIOS settings (np. set DMVT Pre-allocated memory to 96MB)
Anyway, could you describe me the whole process of installation you did? Thanks!
