Awesome. That worked. Clover lists both OSs there. Ubuntu boots fine. Selecting the "AppleMac" install boots up very quickly, but my USB mouse doesn't have any power to it.

I guess this is now more specifics to the Z77N-WIFI motherboard I am using. I need to research that and find out what this DSDT thing is.

Thanks.

connect KB and mouse to the 2 USB ports mext to the PS/2 port.

As for the DSDT, not required unless you want audio over HDMI - see http://www.tonymacx86.com/hdmi-audio/112469-mavericks-hdmi-audio-applehda-guide.html

Thanks Going Bald.

I am pretty sure the keyboard was in a USB slot near the PS/2 ports, but not the mouse. I'll check that again when I get home. I didn't have this problem booting from the Multibeast install USB drive though, although I had to boot in SafeMode (-x ?) :)
 
No luck trying that idea.

I'll do some more searching on the Z77N-WIFI motherboard I am using and USB in general (tried plugging in a thumbdrive and no power to it)

legacy USB enabled in BIOS?
 
Would this be something like the solution I need?

sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions/AppleHPET.kext - See more at: http://blog.waldrondigital.com/2012...ing-on-hackintosh-fixed/#sthash.XQzsICkU.dpuf

Rather hard without a keyboard, would have to boot with the Multibeats USB and mount the volume from there.

can you get to desktop with -v -x -f boot flags?
Never had USB problems on my builds, so can't say/don't know if the linked fix is your problem or not. As the OP says, though - copy the kext to desktop before deleting it from S/L/E just in case you need to put it back.

I can't find a way to add boot flags ad-hoc while using Clover. I can see you can edit the config file, but is there a way to ad a flag ad-hoc?

I can get to the desktop with Clover (it boots really fast actually) but I just don't have any USB ports working. I'll keep digging.

Thanks for all your help so far.
