My original 1tb internal drive has been working great for a couple of years.
I have a 2nd internal 3tb with what was an empty 1.3 tb partition.
I used carbon copy cloner to clone my working osx drive.
i installed chimera on it.
When I boot and hold the option key I am able to select the new cloned osx.
I see the apple screen and the progress bar
Then a white screen appears and it hangs up there
I tried multibeast but it skipped itself past the part of the installation where it asks which destination drive
My ultimate goal is to have the original snow leopard boot plus a Mavericks boot
Any Help would be greatly appreciated

To boot an OS X partition with Chimera or Chameleon the boot partition must be smaller than 1Tb.
Suggest you break the 1.3Tb partition in half or make a 200Gb boot partition and leave the rest for storage.
