I could not find very many builds similar to mine with Mountain Lion, so I thought I would share my progress.
Mobo: MSI Z77MA-G45
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 (Ivy Bridge)
GPU: Intel HD 4000 (Integrated Graphics)
After many failed and inconsistent runs with MultiBeast 5.1.3, I found running MultiBeast in "phases" worked best.
After restarting I noticed the HD 4000 graphics were not being used, and About this Mac > More Info > System Report... > Graphics/Displays confirmed the kext was not loaded.
My Revision ID is 0x0009, so I added
to /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist, and after restarting the HD 4000 kext loaded! Only when using a monitor with DVI...
* To get Mountain Lion to boot with VGA, PCIRootUID=1 must be set in Kernel Flags. To force resolutions other than 1024x768x32, Graphics Mode must be set to <Width>x<Height>x<Depth> in /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist.
Unfortunately this does not load the HD 4000 kext, but it is the best I can get with VGA.
It looks like I will be upgrading to a monitor with DVI input, because this mobo has DVI-D which does not support analog to VGA connectors.
Has anyone used VGA another way?
Thanks to all the threads that got me this far.
