Hey I still can't get my system to boot without -x (with -x it will boot). Now trying Mavericks. Here's my latest stuck verbose boot (without -x, no KP, just "stuck", lots of errors thou).

Edit: noticed I need to add ethernet to get into app store, will solve at a later date, first priority is to be able to boot right.

I can confirm this. Works fine. Network never crashed. I did several reboots since than and had no issues.

Only issue I have is that my USB3 Ports are not working, even with USB3 devices. I installed GenericUSBXHCI.kext (with Multibeast 6). Maybe there is a newer version available? Maybe i need to update mit DSTD.aml? I'll try that later today.

UPDATE:
1.2.7 for GenericUSBXHCI.kext is available. Will try that now.

Becareful. As noted in this release notes:
On OS 10.9, when installing GenericUSBXHCI, you need to edit the file /System/Library/Extensions/AppleKextExcludeList.kext/Contents/Info.plist and make sure GenericUSBXHCI is allowed up to the version you install.
I'd wait for MultiBeast to be updated unless you're having a problem and can't wait for GenericUSBXHCI.kext to be approved.
 
The Power stuff in #3 is not working for me. Apple AppleGraphicsPowerManagement.kext doesn't have a info.plist anymore. Hope this guide will be upgraded for Mavericks :)

It's there; it's just hidden. You just need to show hidden files in Finder or else "sudo chflags nohidden Info.plist" from the terminal.
 
Thanks Stork. 1.2.7 works fine (USB3.0 Front Ports are working again).

Will look into GraphicsPowerManagment later.
 
GraphicsPowerSettings worked fine too :)
 
Can anyone with a nVidia GPU upload their current /Extra folder + extensions for me? I would then only have to generate a SSDT specific for my i3 3225 (correct me if I'm wrong). I really need to get mac working again asap for some projects. Thank you guys.
 
One weird issue I still have. I'm using an SSDT for my i7-3770k. SystemDef is MacMini 6,2.

When all four CPU's are running at full the clock frequency is 3,7 Ghz (instead of 3.5Ghz) (HwMonitor). That's weird? Why does it overclock my CPU? I thought overclocking should only be done when only 2 cores are running (Turbo).

In the Bios the CPU is also clocked at 3.5Ghz.
 
@plantoschka
tried the mentioned kext but it is not working for me. Can you please control in system information if your ethernet is 0x16b0 or 0x16b1 ( My is 0x16b0)
No sucess too (0x16b1 here).

@plantoscka
Could u up your kext?
 
Here is my IONetworkFamily.kext (ASRock Z77E-ITX 0x16b1).

Works perfectly fine for me (Mavericks 10.9).

Don't forget to fix permissions ! Hope it works for you :)
