I have Build a hackintosh with my Nuc and all is good with that. I thought this would be a breeze but maybe I am missing something very simple .
I am using Mountain lion . Really wanted to use mavericks I have a friend that has it so I might have him make me a USB installer but really I just want to get mountain lion install for now .
I am creating my USB installer with a my apple MacBook Pro.
I went online and purchased mountain lion from the app store waited two days for the download code. downloaded it to applications on my MacBook Pro.
just as explained in the guide Legacy boot mode with UniBeast 5.20 takes about 15 to 30 minutes to make the USB drive installer.
Only thing I changed in the bios is too update to 1.14
And eSATA to 3.0 and AHCI
And the CD ROM to boot first and the USB 2nd
The flags I've tried -x -v -f Also try graphics enabler yes and no
However I will say with -x at the very end I will start to see a flash of the installer Apple and reboot?
looking for some help?
