Hi All,

First of all I have already read through the BIG LIST OF PROBLEMS so please don't refer me to that.

This is my second build. I did a success Yosemite build a while back and have since made a couple attempts at an El Capitan build. I am stuck and cannot figure out what to do.

My build consists of the following components:

GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-UD5 TH LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Intel Core i7-6700K 8M Skylake Quad-Core 4.0 GHz LGA 1151 91W BX80662I76700K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 530

Ballistix Sport LT 64GB (4 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) Desktop Memory Model BLS4K16G4D240FSE

SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 1TB SATA III 3-D Vertical Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E1T0B/AM

CORSAIR AX Series AX760 760W 80 PLUS PLATINUM Haswell Ready Full Modular ATX12V & EPS12V SLI and Crossfire Ready Power Supply

GT 740 SC GDDR5 4GB EVGA GeForce GT 740 4GB GDDR5 Dual DVI mHDMI Graphics Cards

Apple Broadcom Bcm94360cd - 802.11 A/B/G/N/AC + Bluetooth 4.0

Now the graphics card and the Broadcom bluetooth wifi card are not yet installed in the system.

I get to the boot loader just fine but when I try to install the OS I get a "prohibited" sign and it says "still waiting on root device". I have tried booting in verbose and it seems to get stuck just after "Missing Bluetooth Control Transport" shows. There is one more line of code that starts wit USBMSC. Sorry can't remember the rest of it.

I have tried numerous different boot flags all to no avail. Now when I use unibeast to create the boot loader I only have the option for ATI or NVIDIA for the graphics. I don't select any as I am using the on board graphics currently.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
