Hello all! Thanks in advance for reading this and any help you can offer. I've gone through the "Big list" of El Capitan issues, and haven't found success yet.
I tried installing Clover, then upgrading to El Capitan from Yosemite. After the install, it was rebooting during startup, and couldn't get to the GUI. I was reading possible fixes, but not sure how to change files without being able to boot at all. So I tried a time machine restore, which got me into the pickle I am now in. I have a boot0: error when trying to boot from the system drive. I created a Unibeast 6 flash drive on another macbook, and I can boot to clover on the usb, but if I try to boot from the system drive, unibeast, or "Boot OSX Install" it will always hang somewhere in the process. I've tried it with -v and -x, and cpus=1, and still hangs. With the -x flag, it hangs at "Error allocating XXXXX Pages." Without the -x, It takes a VERY long time before it seems to stop, but when I've let it go without -x, it seems to throw repeated SMC errors as the last thing.
I'm seeing things on the forums about maybe missing kexts, but I can't figure out where they should go, and if they are supposed to go on the system drive, how should I get them there now?
