Everyone knows the pascal gpu's probably will not be supported, however I've been trying to install el capitan for the last few hours without luck...

I generally get cannot allocate xxxx type 2
boot failed wait 10 seconds.

or if I just run it the meter will stop and we get the dreaded stop sign...

I tried boot flags: dart=0 cpus=1 nv_disable=1 arch=x86_64 -v -x
I got close once but can't remember which combo of flags I used, stopped at bluetooth transport before crashing.

Total specs:
Z170 MSI M9 ACK Motherboard
CPU: intel i7-6700k
Memory: G.Skill Trident Z 3000mhz
SSD: Samsung 840 256gb
HDD: WD Blue 1TB
GPU: GTX EVGA FTW 1080 (we all know no acceleration, it's kind of a pain to take out since my PC is partially watercooled as I can't buy waterblocks yet for my GPU.)
 
Try connect display to board, not GPU. Make sure inject intel = true in the graphics section of config.plist, make sure first init display is set to iGPU in UEFI/BIOS, iGPU Memory = 64M and disable VT-d.

boot with only -v and report results.
 
I got to the install and now going through multibeast yay!
Just can't seem to find an audio driver for C-Media 6632A

boot args if anyone asks.

-v dart=0 -x nv_disable=1 cpus=1 npci=0x2000

I tried mounting manually, sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk1s1 /Volumes/EFI but get msdos filesystem not found.

Anyway to mount EFI in safe mode?
