Guide: Update OS X Mavericks to OS X Yosemite Using UniBeast and MultiBeast

I looked this up on Asus' website - to answer your questions, the audio is not Realtek ALC, it is Via VT1708S so your only option is to use Voodoo audio or add an external USB audio device. Your motherboard does support the i7-3770.

thx, yes i true the realtek is not, but i finde the audio drive for this motherboard and if anyone want the driver i share without any problem, thx again.

Nvidia titan ok
Ethernet ok

Hi, I have no idea what this guide is telling me to do. Where do i remove what need to be removed?
 
Hi, I upgrade from Mavericks to Yosemite, after multiple trial and error.:p

The point is, you need to follow 100% as post #1: remove unnecessary files and tags.

Then install 10.10 from USB(with latest Unibeast).

After installation, boot from USB, launch 10.10 from HDD

Then run multibeast(latest version), remember JUST select the options as post #1. (I select those when I installed Mavericks, but then my OSX freeze in boot screen)

Reboot your PC, if you can successfully launch 10.10 means you did it! Check the functions(internet, sound, USB, etc.) If anything doesn't work run multibeast again and install necessary drivers.

My MB is GA-H87M-HD3. Only sound card doesn't work. Install realtek driver then all functions back to normal!

My next homework:
1. upgrade to 10.10.4
2. make internal card reader back to live

PS. Oh yes, don't forget to repair permission via Disk Utility after running multibeast
 
Hi all - its been a long time since I last posted.

So I have tried to update my 10.8.2 build to Yosemite 10.10.4 on my MSI Z77MA-G45 - and its all gone a bit wonky.

I started by using carbon copy to backup my boot drive.

Then I followed the instructions at the start of this thread and all appeared to go well up to the point I had to boot to the from the USB after the initial Yosemite install. All I got was a couldn't find kernel message.

However, i was able to start the machine up by using the unibeast boot USB and selecting my backup drive. However, all of a sudden that has stopped working and I am not sure why.

I booted with a -v and the last message was something about a SMC extension. So I tried booting with a -f -v and now i am getting dozens of ACPI error messages. I have no idea where to even start to fix this!

any help hugely appreciated :thumbup:

guys, can someone help? i selected to boot off of the USB i made and it seems like it wants to start the OS x installation then quickly loads windows as normal. any suggestions? thanks in advance.
 
Hi folks,

Just ran the update as per instructions and I can boot the HD by booting from USB first, then using -v -x to boot from hard drive. I can't boot directly from the hard drive using -v -x, it still stops loading. This is quite confusing as they should be loading from the same source?

Booting without these flags results in the grey load screen bar not moving. I have run multibeast after booting from usb to hd with -v and -x, it still wont boot from the hard drive at all.

Attached is what I get in verbose mode booting directly from the hard drive. Any ideas?

Here's how I got around the "can't find; mach_kernel" error.
I followed the steps in this guide and still got the error. My problem was that there are two ways to boot from your usb:

1. let chimera load, press any key to bring up the device list, and choose usb.
This resulted in the error

2. press F12 before Chimera loads to bring up the boot menu and choose usb or in my case PMAP.
Using the bios boot menu instead of the chimera boot menu allowed me to boot to the installer without any trouble.

Hope this helps someone!

THIS!! Fixed "can't find mach_kernel" for me too, thanks!!

Maybe update the first post ? Seems bunch of people run into this..
...and thanks to Tony and everybody / anybody else contributing to make this stuff work :):headbang:
