Hey all,
I'm having some Mavericks Desktop installation issues. Let me start with my build:
CPU: Intel 4670K
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3
GPU: AMD R9 280
I followed the unibeast installation guide with the following changed settings in my BIOS:
xhci mode = auto
xhci handoff = disabled
init display first = pcie
internal graphics = disabled
I can get into the installer and install Mavericks just fine, but I get stuck on my first boot up. The last line is:
**gpu hardware vm is enabled (multispace: enabled, page table updates with DMA: enabled)
I tried booting with -v and maxmem=4096 and dart=0. Still no luck.
I was able to boot into safe mode with -x and complete the new Mac registration, but still can't boot up without -x. My monitor is 2560x1600, so I'd like very much to display the full resolution, not something like 1024x768 low res.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
EDIT: Used -x to boot into safe mode, complete new Mac registration. Now upon reboot (even with -x), I get a kernel panic that mentions "a free zone element has been modified" in it. I can post a screenshot, if necessary.
