Hi!
I can't seem to get my system to boot without the Unibeast-USB!
The boot from the USB goes great, no problem with OSX installation at all.
Ethernet works without any driver installation
Sounds works after I installed the drivers.
Even my GeForce GTX 680 works straight OOB!
I think I'm doing something wrong in Multibeast.
What I have tried in MB:
"Easybeast Installation", shut down, remove USB, startup from HDD, Grey screen with Applo logo appears, all goes black
"Chimera" installation, same procedure, same thing happens

What am I missing out here? What am I doing wrong?



Changes done it UEFI (BIOS Version F5):
Boot option priorities set to "USB DISK 2.0 PMAP"
SATA Mode Selection: AHCI
xHCI Mode set to: Auto
XHCI Hand-off: Enabled
EHCI Hand-off: Enabled

Hardware installed in my computer atm:

CPU: I7 3770K
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H
Ram: Crucial DDR3 BallistiX Sport 1600MHz 16GB (4*4GB)
GPU: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 680
SSD: OCZ SSD Agility 3 Series 2.5" 120GB SATA 6 (120GB)
And the power supply, of course.

Should I remove some RAM before installing?
 
Power Management unsupported? But ive tried installing the PWRmanagement in MB. hmm.
Yeah, been looking but havent find anything really. But i'll keep looking.

I'll try, but that kext is already in the "Easybeast installation" and that didnt work earlier.
But i'll give it a go:
UserDSDT- or DSDT-Free installation
Sound driver
nullcpupowermanagement

That should do the trick?
 
This came up in "-v" after MB-installation told above.

I have never tried to install anything within the "system" box. But I'm going for the Patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement now.

I'll try this now:
UserDSDT- or DSDT-Free installation (This installs Chimera, so i dont need anything else right?)
My sound drivers
Patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement

Anything else?
 
Well, the Patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement did not do the trick. Still black screen, and same error-message in "-v".

Anyone please?

 
With a 6XX card in 10.8 you can NOT have the FakeSMC for nVidia installed. If it's in there take it out and delete it. I had exactly this issue and that was what resolved it for me IIRC.

You DO however still need the FakeSMC for the motherboard.

Dude, breaking my balls here :p.
That didn't make sense. I can't have it, but I need it?

What do you suggest I do then?

(Right after installing OSX, no drivers install. STRAIGHT from Unibeast)
 
So to make things totally clear; I need the "Patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement" and "NVIDIA GTX 6xx Support"

Which will lead me to these settings in MB:
UserDSDT- or DSDT-Free installation
NVIDIA GTX 6xx Support
Patched AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement

And if I find the "FakeSMC.kext" in my extensions-folder i need to delete it?

NEVER delete files unless you know exactly what you are deleting.

Try this guide.

You need to check the Atheros and Realtech 887 support like in this guide below, but the one above is clearer about what you need to do.

Thanks! I will give it a go. Though I think my problem is within the Power Management. I Keep getting this error everytime in "-v"

The sound and ethernet is not yet a problem. Ethernet works OOB and sound is easily installed :).
EDIT: THAT link Ggeorg saved my life! THANK YOU
