Hi all,
I have installed Yosemite on my old desktop.
Specs:
C2D E8400 3GHz
4GB DDR2
G33 Chipset with integrated graphics.

I know the graphics is not supported but I am fine with the low visuals.
I was able to boot into the installer and finish the installation.
When I restart the system, the system shows RTC: Only single RAM back (128 bytes)
The system successfully booted at one point of time where I was able to perform initial setup.
Now my problem is that the system is able to successfully boot only at random times.

I use the following boot flags
dart=0 npci=0x2000 -v -f kext-dev-mode=1

Somebody please help me and I'd appreciate if someone helps me to understand the boot sequence process.

I use Chameleon bootloader.
I also know that the GPU is not supported but it's fine, I am able to start up and the choppy graphics are enough for me to work with Word.
 
Chameleon is no longer supported on this site. Using UniBeast and MultiBeast for Yosemite is your best solution to a Yosemite installation.

BTW, where did find Yosemite?
 
I have the original app files from the app store in an archive.
