Hey I hate to be the poster who obviously just doesn't know how to use search, but I've read and tried everything.
I have a working 10.7.4 installation, no problems. Booting off the ML unibeast usb stick, trying to get to the installer, it hangs at the apple logo and spinning gear with the little do not enter symbol. In verbose, right after confirming firewire is working, the screen blinks and then starts to print "Still waiting for root device." This seems to be a common problem, but I can't find the solution. I've tried all combinations of boot flags as well as the chameleon boot file from the working lion install.
I also am aware with issues with 6XXX graphics on ML, the cursor and white screen. I don't know if I just haven't gotten far enough for it hang there or not, but I've tried deleting the ATI6000 kext from the unibeast drive to no avail.
Thanks for your help!
