it stuck at the bar get on almost 1/4,then I choose "verbose mode",it still stuck by some message...

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.

You have UHD screen. Note that OP, jhwawk, has 1080p screen.

You need to run the installer with config.plist/Graphics/Inject/Intel=false.

Post install, you'll need patched IOKit before you can enable graphics (Inject/Intel=true).

For example, see the Y50 guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...e-lenovo-y50-uhd-1080p-using-clover-uefi.html

UHD, 3200X1800 on a 13 inch screen is just crazy.

But I think this is the only way to have a touch screen on this laptop.

Still, even on 1920/1080 on this 13 screen, I increase Firefox's font in order to not hurt my eyes, which are both 10/10.

You're probably gonna need it big time, no matter what OS, so here's how to do it :

In Firefox Type "about:config", press yes.

Then look for "layout.css.devPixelsPerPx" and change it from -1.0 to anywhere you like, I use 1.2 but you probably gonna need 1.5 / 2.0.

Another info, for people installing for the first time, if you plan to dual or triple boot OSX with Windows and Linux, always start with OSX of course but make all different partition HFS+ in disk utility. If you make a partition fat32 from OSX Diskutility, windows will consider the whole thing MBR and won't install.

It is pixel doubled/scaled. So, effective resolution is 1600x900 which is quite reasonable for 13".

Defenetly better than 1920x1080 then, even tho it's still 16/9; when mac are 16/10 I think which is better for a computer IMO.

It's defenetly utter BS tho. People buy more, when they have less, when it's actually better...
