Here is my set up:
MSI Z77A-G45 motherboard
Intel Core i7-3770
Kingston 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory Model KVR16N11/8 (I have two of these in slot 2 and 4)
Corsair Force Series GS CSSD-F180GBGS-BK 2.5" 180GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (in sata port 1)
SeaSonic X Series X-850 power supply
Fractal Design Define R4 Case
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO RR-212E-20PK-R2 Continuous Direct Contact 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler
I chose this motherboard since it seemed very compatible and others had done well with it.
I assembled everything, downloaded the latest bios from MSI and ran it through PMPatch utility, then used the MSI utility to update the bios - no problem.
The system starts right up and loads the UEFI bios without a problem.
These are the bios settings I chose:
PCIe Gen 3
ACPI: S3
Power LED: blinking
On board LAN: enabled
Sata Mode: AHCI
HD controller: enabled
HPET: enabled
Graphics start up: IGD
Graphics Memory: 64
Graphics Memory max: 128 (I also tried 256 and maximum)
Multimonitor: Enabled (I also tried Disabled)
USB controller: enabled
Intel Rapid Start: enabled
wake up control: bios
Everything else set to disabled.
Unibeast 1.7.0 Mountain Lion.
Power up, Press F11, chose my Unibeast stick. Cannot boot into the installer! Everytime it hangs just before the GUI loads. I have tried many combinations of boot flags: -f -F...The only way I can get it to boot up completely is in safe mode -x. I have tried two different usb sticks with Unibeast.
I can boot into single user mode without safe mode.
Two times (in about 100 tries) it actually booted without safe mode but then immediately afterwards it would not, even though I did not change any settings!
The installer runs in safe mode.
Disk utility -> new partition ->GUID partition table -> Mac OS journaled file system.
Install completes. Reboot. Can only boot the new disk in safe mode still. Run multibeast to install audio driver, ethernet driver, Chimera bootloader. Reboot: will only start in safe mode still.
Help!
