Dell Lat E5400 i5

[chiefhowie]

I tried many ways to install Yosemite without success on Dell 5420
I install on an HP Sat , ran well. took the HD from HP Sat and installed in the E5420.
Everything worked except wifi. used usb NetGear wifi.
Ran great for a few days, now I get the spinning ball after I enter my password.
tried boot flag subjestion's -s -F -x -s dart=o ECT.
before "spin Ball" just hit enter , then PW , no problem.
Thank you for Any help

Don't expect to be able to transfer one hack install into another...

Best to install fresh on each machine...

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

System: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.
