[burakef]

Thank you for answer.
Why it is opening so late?

 

[MustafaIsayev]

i think its normally for Hdd..
for speed you need SSD=)

 

[burakef]

I agree with you. SSD performance is really increasing.

Hi!
For me it's not working. I know I am doing some things wrong
Although I used a little different method to make bootable USB (your method was causing install screen to crash after some time)
I don't have sound, USB is a little glitchy (15.04.16 19:55:52,662 com.apple.kextcache[453]: AppleUSBDisplays.kext - no compatible dependency found for com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily.) - and many similar messages during boot.
Cannot use all your kexts, dunno why, I have the exact same model, G580 20150

Also I somehow don't know how to make DSDT and SSDT, it's just too crazy for me...pls help

Except that I have everything functional...i think
