Gents - another set of start up questions I'm afraid. But I have been working on this since 12/20/14!!
Configuration: Asus Z87-WS ATX LGA1150; Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core; G.Skill Trident X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3-2400; Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB 2.5" SSD; 2 x Asus GeForce GTX 780 3GB DirectCU II (SLI); LEPA 1600W ATX12V / EPS12V; Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BL 78.1 CFM; Monitor connected by DVI
ASUS BIOS - v. 2004 (that is not the date!!)
Machine has five drive bays. It was initially set up to run windows 7 ultimate. Have removed those drives and put in a fresh Samsung SSD as described above
Followed the install guide from the Installation Guide from Tony Mac using a MacBook Pro 3 (13 inch) to download Yosemite and combine with UniBeast (5.0.2) for a bootable USB. Did not select Laptop Support or Legacy USB Support. BIOS settings were changed except VT-d which is not applicable and nor is CFG-Lock which was not changed.
I note that Bob Roche has put a post up about this specific motherboard but there was no discussion about BIOS settings or boot flags.
The issue is that I cannot get the installer to run. I have tried multiple boot flags and always run the -v option. All I get is different errors.
Any suggestions on a procedure to sort this all out. Machine is for my son who is a Motion Design student.....and bitching about his delayed Christmas present!
Thanks in advance!
