This is my first time building a hackintosh and I'm having a little trouble installing mavericks. I've read others posts with similar issues and made a similar post a few days ago. So far everything suggested hasn't been working.

I've tried various different boot flags and I've tried both chimera and clover, I keep ending up with a kernel panic.

G.Skill Ripjaws X series 16gb
Samsung 850 evo ssd 250gb
WD Desktop internal hard drive 1tb
Asus black blu-ray/dvd drive

I'm probably doing something wrong because I am very new to this.

Thanks for reading.

So I finally got it running!

I think there was something wrong with the USB I was using. After re-installing unibeast onto a USB I was able to get it running using the boot flags "-v -x PCIRootUID=1 GraphicsEnabler=No IGPEnabler=Yes"

The only problem now is that I have to type that in every time I use mavericks. Is there a way around this?

With Chimera: Edit /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist in the root of your install partition.
