Intel Core i7 4930k (6 Cores) Can't Launch Installer

[xuzhin]

I'm trying to help a friend with his system, this is what he's got:

friend's system:
Asrock x79 extreme6
8x8GB of ddr3 1600 (64GB)
Intel Core i7 4930k (6 Cores)
MSI gtx 770

I've tried everything i could think of. i tried unibeast with multibeast on it, tried another bootloader, tried editing the chameleon.boot.plist, graphicsenabler to yes and to no, pciroot to 0 and to 1, tried a new fakesmc, a dsdt in the extra folder on my installer, but no luck.

any help or ideas?

Boot flags are case sensitive:
GraphicsEnabler=Yes or GraphicsEnabler=No not graphicsenabler

GraphicsEnabler=Yes or GraphicsEnabler=No not graphicsenabler

thanks for replying.

i've based the boot.plist on the folowing:

<key>Graphics Mode</key>
	<string>1024x768x32</string>
	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>PciRoot</key>
	<string>0</string>
	<key>Kernel</key>
	<string>mach_kernel</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
	<string></string>
	<key>Timeout</key>
	<string>5</string>
	<key>UseKernelCache</key>
	<string>Yes</string>

	<key>Graphics Mode</key>
	<string>1024x768x32</string>
	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>Kernel</key>
	<string>mach_kernel</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
	<string></string>
	<key>Timeout</key>
	<string>5</string>
	<key>UseKernelCache</key>
	<string>Yes</string>

<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>No</string>
<key>IGPEnabler</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string></string>
<key>Legacy Logo</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>2</string>
<key>GenerateCStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>GeneratePStates</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>UseKernelCache</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>"1920x1080x32"</string>

	<key>SSDT</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
	<string>Yes</string>
	<key>PciRoot</key>
	<string>0</string>
	<key>Kernel Flags</key>
	<string>npci=0x2000</string>
	<key>UseKernelCache</key>
	<string>No</string>

i've tried all of them with graphics enabler as yes, and as no, i think i've also tried them with pciroot as 0 and as 1, i've also tried some of them without some of the keys / strings. still no luck thus far.

Same EXACT problem except I have a 4820k (4) cores processor also I have gtx770 nvidia video card. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this. Us noobs at hackintoshing need some love over here.

The current kernels of OSX don't have support for Ivy Bridge-E CPU's. Therefore, the (normal?) kernel which is included in most of the installers won't start.

stinga11 has made Ivy-E kernels for 10.8.4 and 10.9.. google them, manually put them on your USB stick somewhere and boot that kernel via the bootscreen. Then the installer will start.

Remember to manually copy the Ivy-E kernel over after the install.. otherwise your installed version won't boot.

Ohhhh THANKYOU! I was told that I'll have to wait for apple to update mavericks which they are doing... Will the update also work?

P.S. After spending quite a while googling theses all i found is AMD patches... Do you have the link for it or something? Because I cannot find it at all.

Ok I eventually found it and this is what happened... it reached this screen and stopped. I couldn't power off the computer at this point but had to reset it.
