When you get that KP you'll need to use the boot flag maxmem=(1/2 of installed ram) ie if you've got 8Gb of ram installed then use maxmem=4096 You can also just try to do the install with 1 DIMM of ram.Wth everything in place I took the brave step of firing it up for the first time. Having never built a PC it was a scary moment - but luckily no pops or bangs occurred!
I prepared my copy of Yosemite and Unibeast using the great guide on the forum. I entered the Bios screen and changed all of the settings as the guide dictates. Then fired it up using my USB boot drive. The install started then I got the dreaded 'panic' message.

Next I offered up the PSU to the backplate and screwed it into the case. Getting it to fit perfectly was a little tricky, so I decided to use longer screws to locate the PSU first. The reason for it being tricky is that you have a backplate as well as a lot of original case material.
At this point I also offered up the SSDs into the back sled.
