Hi WonkeyDonkey,
I followed your advice and upgraded to Yosemite last night. As I didn't want to lose my programs and settings, I simply installed on top of my Mavericks install, following your guide otherwise. Not sure if due to that, but it went a bit more difficult than Mavericks, with multiple freezes and grey screens in the process regardless of boot flags, but in the end, I got it all more or less working, with the exception of a few glitches that bother me:
First, I get an odd artifact at startup. The apple logo and progress bar appear for about 3 seconds, then the screen blinks and I get a sort of washed out screen with six apple logos made up of thin lines and greyed-out progress bars (not moving), and another progress bar in the middle, this one moves for another 3-5 seconds, then it disappears and I'm presented with the normal desktop.
Second, for whatever reason, the multibeast trim patch never works for me (my SSD shows as NO trim support in system report), so I normally use Trim Enabler, which is now disabled; should I let it disable kext signing globally? I hear that may cause trouble in the end. Ideally, I'd like to get the trim patch working as it should.
Finally, my WiFi card is no longer recognized, of which I already posted in Toleda's thread.
It's things like these that kept me from updating to Yosemite in the past - I was getting terrible freezes when trying 10.10.2 a couple of months back with my other system (built to TonyMac spec). Hope this is all minor and temporary. Thanks again for your tremendous work.
