Unable to boot/install Mavericks from usb

[awuku]

hi all
I've successfully created a usb boot for os x mavericks using unibeast as per the instructions. However i'm having difficulties trying to install onto an intel-based PC. USB starts to boot (in verbose/graphics mode) and hangs with these warnings/errors:

"BootCacheControl: Unable to open /var/db/BootCache.playlist: No Such file or directory
Previous shutdown cause: 5.
SMC:: smcInitHelper ERROR: MMIO regMap==NULL - fall back to old SMC mode.
ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start -waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowermanagement) timed out.
Transcript offline - Buffer pool Allocate [181000] failed
DSMOS has arrived
[IOBluetoothHCIController][start] -- Completed"

I've tried all the bootflag suggestions I've seen (-x, graphicsenabler=no,) in various forums but still not getting anywhere. I must be missing something that I don't know about and would appreciate any help.

My system: intel board DQ67SW with onboard Graphics,LAN, Audio, core i5, 8 GB RAM, Unformatted 250GB H/D.

regards

Try to boot with "-v -x GraphicsEnabler=Yes" (without quotes, but case sensitive ! it needs to be written like i did !!!)

Thanks for the response! Tried it but still no joy.

Please tell me the hardware you use and add those information in your signature please

*EDIT*

Sorry, my fault. Must have overhead this

Try:

-v -f -x GraphicsEnabler=Yes PCIRootUID=1

tobitobst, "Animated avatars are not allowed" is in the rules section of this website.

Thanks but I'm still not getting anywhere. Tried different combinations of the flag and it hangs at same place.

Been doing a lot of searching and reading various posts and articles and it seems to me that Intel motherboards are not supported. If anyone has experience installing OS X mavericks on an Intel mobo (DQ67SW) with integrated hd graphics, LAN, Audio, I would very much appreciate it if they could drop a few tips and/or tricks on how they got it to work.
Spent 3 days on this, tried every permutation and combination of bootflags and still no joy.

Same here and have an Intel motherboard. I, by no means know what I am doing, but reading and trying everything and after Mavericks downloaded and installation seemed to work when I did my final reboot it keeps getting an "unable to boot" message I havent figured out how to get around even with BIOS changes.

The search continues....
