Hey everyone, this is my first post and it comes with a serious S.O.S.
I faced difficulty getting this build up and running with El Capitan but with luck I got it to finally get through the loading screen for the installer and from there it was just a matter of working through the bugs. I then managed to get it dual booting with windows off of the same SDD on separate partitions. Today as I was running El Capitan, I received a graphics driver update notification and I decided to accept and install. After that all hell broke loose. El Capitan will not load and hangs. I can still boot windows just fine. I have tried every boot flag that I know of based on reading other forums. I have set my bios to the correct options so I think.
To attempt to fix this, I have reconfigured my boot USB. Checked bios information multiple times. Attempted to boot installer.
Based on pic 2 any ideas? Please ask for information that will help me get this OS installed. I do not mind getting rid of windows and if I need to install it on a separate HDD I can make that happen. El Capitan is my main priority at this point. I think it has something to do with my network adapter or graphics card.
I may have effed something up but I have no idea where.
from install guide:
2. Load Optimized Defaults = GOOD
3. If your CPU supports VT-d, disable it = GOOD
4. If your system has CFG-Lock, disable it = CAN'T FIND
5. If your system has Secure Boot Mode, disable it = Believe it is disabled
6. Set OS Type to Other OS = GOOD
7. If your system has IO SerialPort, disable it = GOOD
8. Set XHCI Handoff to Enabled = GOOD
From step 4 in install guide: Followed exactly with and without inject nvidia graphics.
When I start my computer clover is still installed.
There are a ton of EUFI PCI Roots when you "bcfg boot dump" (easily over 30)
List of hardware in my build:
Gigabyte LGA1151 Intel Z170 ATX DDR4 Motherboards GA-Z170X-UD5
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB FTW+ GAMING ACX 2.0+
