Hi guys. I've created a installer of OS X El Capitan, but after the boot, everything works, but I can't see my HD's to continue the installation. The screen only show me OS X Utilities and this 4 options: Restore using a backup; Reinstall OS X; Get Online Help; and Disk Utility.
I follow the guide, but can't see where is wrong. I have installed the OS X Yosemite in this Probook 4530s and everything is ok. Any Help? Sorry for my bad english.

Your model is supported. Read post #1.

You have to use Disk Utility to partition your drive as GPT, create an HFS+ partition to serve as a target for the OS X installer.

It is already configured this way. At this point I have the Mountain Lion installed on it HD. It is partitioned as GUID and Mac OS X journaled expanded, but the screen presented do not appear to me the disks, I can only view them in Disk Utility ... I tried another HD never used here and resulted in the same ...

You have to enter the OS X installer before you can choose an HFS+ target for installation.
Make sure you created your USB correctly.

I've read it, and I knew it'd be supported. I just found strange that there are only these USB SSDT's and none of them have my model in it (or 6x70).
SSDT-USB-4x0s-G2.aml
SSDT-USB-4x30s.aml
SSDT-USB-4x40s.aml
SSDT-USB-8x0s-G1.aml
SSDT-USB-8x0s-G2.aml
Anyway, I've tried using a USB 3.0 and 2.0 on every port and I think I do not need one. So I'm guessing that if there isn't a SSDT for a specific model (older models at least) you don't need one. (and if so, that might be worth adding in)
For what it's worth, here's my IOREG after plugging and unplugging a 2.0 and a 3.0 flash drive on every port. (It only has 2 3.0 ports)
EDIT: Also, there's a typo in your first post... it reads APCI instead of ACPI.

I made the USB like descripted in this guide. I'm thinking if the image downloaded is corrupted. The installer starts normally, no needed any flags. This screen is showed http://s2.glbimg.com/erGR0F4LWN0a0Z...0/17/captura-de-tela-2014-10-17-as-150618.png
Thanks in advance.

Not strange. It is just that, up to now, no one has contributed the required information to create one.
The SSDT for USB configuration is an optimization (disabling unused ports).
I added SSDT-USB-6x70.dsl to the repo based on your ioreg.
If you want, you could verify the locations of each port. They are probably not accurate. Read the comments in the .dsl and provide accurate feedback if you can.
Fixed.

Hi RehabMan is there any sort of test you can run on a normal spinning drive to make sure it works okay? Got my new 750GB hard drive today but the delivery guy forced it through the letterbox and it went bang on the floor I'm not a really happy chap because of it and yet it said fragile on the box.
