Hey all!

So I finally got my setup working almost 100% (just missing sleep at this point it would seem). My specs are:
ASRock H97m-itx/ac
8GB Ram
i5 4690k
Asus 970 mini 4gb

It took me a while to get it booting, but I can boot consistently with my USB device plugged in as my boot loader and I know what my config.plist requires. The issue I am having is I have run chimera, and I it says it installed successfully. However, when I take my thumb drive out of the computer, I can't boot at all. It says "Please insert proper boot media and restart your computer". Any advice on what to do? This is my second attempt at this, I had 10.9.5 installed, but I had the same issue. Seeing as I got farther with 10.10.4, I'm sticking with it.
