Got a rather unusual problem over here - installed El Capitan on my Lenovo T430 (2349IP5, IB Core i5-3320M, 4GB RAM, HD4000 Graphics, 1600x900 screen) and after some patches almost everything is working as it should (SpeedStep, FireWire via ExpressCard, Mini DisplayPort, internal sound - no problems) but there's one issue I'd like to resolve:
I'm not getting any boot screen at all. No Apple progress bar on normal boot and no text on verbose boot.
Don't get me wrong - the system is working as it should. For now. But what if something goes awry and the system won't boot anymore? I can't use verbose mode to troubleshoot the system in that case. Already noticed this problem when booting the installer but I was hoping it might go away. I'm gonna give as many details on this as possible (the ones I think might be of interest - it most probably doesn't have anything to do with post-installation .kexts or patches because, as I mentioned, the problem already occurred when booting the installation USB drive):
