Since I have not seen any guidance and I, personally, being a bit 'muffled installation, put my experience and a small guide on how to properly install and perfectly Mountain Lion 10.8.2 sull'Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z.
1) Download and inserted in a USB key the modified BIOS 3304 (downloadable from here -> http://bios.zmac.net/asus/Maximus-IV-Extreme-Z-ASUS-3304_modified.zip)
2) Prepare your usb stick with Unibeast 1.5.3 (once done, reboot)
3) Press the Delete key and enter the BIOS, then install the BIOS Modified. Installation is completed, restart and go back into the BIOS.
4) Turn off Jmicron and Marvell, when not in use and, if you had an overclocked system, you can safely enter the parameters of your overclock and then set the PCIE video card as before, just as I did: disabled Marvell and Jmicron. Off the input of the Intel video card and I put PCIE as the primary adapter. Once done, you can press F10 to save the configuration and, therefore, restart.
5) After the BIOS screen, press F8 and choose the USB stick where you have installed Lion with Unibeast MT. Now, if you have an Nvidia video card, you have to give the following command: PCIRootUID = 0, otherwise you get a black screen and your monitor might type "No sengale."
6) Install MT Lion in your Hard Disk or SSD.
7) Once installed and, after performing the installation steps when you are inside your desk, open Safari and downloaded DSDT Editor and Patcher from here http://olarila.com/dsdt/DSDTEditor_Mac.zip.
8) Open DSDT Editor and Patcher and Estrate your DSDT. Once done, you have to do is insert the Generic Patch P8 3xxx and that of our audio ALC889, which I'll post.
9) Once you have applied these Patchs, you will find errors: Click on the "Fix errors" to correct them. There is a remark and an error. Double click on that error and replace ABCDEFGH with ABCDEFFF
10) Compile and save the DSDT on the desktop
11) Download Multibeast to Mountain Lion and install only these things:
a) UserDSDT or DSDT-Free Installation
b) with DSDT AUDIO: ALC889
c) NETWORK: hnak's AppleIntelE1000e Ethernet
d) Customization -> System definition -> iMac12, 2
12) Once you have installed everything with Multibeast, open Disk Utility and repaired permissions.
13) Once you have completed the process of repairing permissions, reboot.
14) We are back on the desk well. Everything works great. You are welcome to install updates, including 10.8.2 and, after rebooting, you will need to re-install the ALC889 audio and everything will be as before.
I highly recommend, after installing the system, to make a fair copy of the hard disk with CCC.
CIAUZ!
