Hey all!

Been trying to install Lion on my GA-H61M-USB3-B3 but it has come to failing

Ran with GraphicsEnabler=Yes, PCIRootUID=1 and with -v

I keep getting fails

It tells me these things aren't loading -
com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily not found
can't load kext com.apple.GeForce

Obviously there are other lines involved but unsure how to get past this issue! Should I install without my GT430 plugged in?

Do you have the SATA set to AHCI in the BIOS?

And if you are running a CPU that will support HD3000 graphics then you can try installing without your GT430 card (use the DVI port not the VGA port as it is not supported).

The CPU doesn't have HD3000, didn't bother getting one with it just because it was cheaper without + needed GPU anyway

"SATA AHCI Mode - AHCI" is pretty well the only setting involving AHCI inside my BIOS
 
Using -x and -v comes up with -

USBMSC Identifier (non-unique): *Long string*

Then waits for ages

Then appears with -

mbinit: done [64MB total pool size, (42/21) split]
Pthread support ABORTS when sync kernel primitives misused
rooting via boot-uuid from /chosen: *Long string*
from path: "uuid", Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><string ID="1">IOResources</string><key>IOResourceMath</key><string ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict>

Then appears "still waiting for root device" after a while
 
Please post your hardware specs.There is none in your signature.
 
GA-H61M-USB3-B3
i3-2120
4GB Corsair Value DDR3 PC3-10600
1GB MSI GT 430

Ta daa
 
HUZZAR! I see the Install screen!

I flashed with F8 BIOS, formatted the drive I wanted it on, and I'm on the install screen baby! Hell yeah!
 
Oh, it seems the installation failed... Now lets try and figure out why....
 
Okay the best I can get to is just around under half way or so. Any flags I can run or etc to figure out the issue? Can't seem to run the installer with -x as I get a 'stop sign' whilst trying to load
