I installed Yosemite, and it works fine but it can only be booted to if I insert the Unibeast zip drive that I made and choose USB-HDD as the booting target in my BIOS settings and then choose my Yosemite installation ("Yosemite 2") from the Chimera menu.

How do I make the computer boot into Yosemite by itself? I get a boot0 error:

Verifying DMI Pool Data ...

I ran the 'dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/disk0s2' terminal command and it returns 'Operation not supported'. How do I fix the computer so that it will boot into Yosemite correctly?

@arminreiss or anyone else who knows the answer

I already did option 1 from that guide, it returned 'Operation not supported'. The boot screen has three options, 1 Unibeast USB Drive 2) Yosemite (Built-in HD partition 1) 3) Yosemite 2 (Built-in HD partitition 2) ((this is the correct option with the working Yosemite install))

Should I change the command in some way to reflect the fact that I want it to be that partition?
 
Sorry, did not understand your reply.....

at #1 you have too boot in/WITH YOUR USB and wait untill OSX inatllation appears. After choosing your language then follow the steps as described in the link.

IMPORTANT you have to change the drive i.e. "disk0s2" to what you have means the drive you want have the correction

after this remove usb and boot. maybe you have to setup bios to correct drive to boot from.

When more than one drive appears you do not boot from the correct drive
