Hi,
I am a first time poster, I have had my system since 2008 and it has been running great with every new OS update since then. I have been trying to install Yosemite today however and am stuck and haven't seen this problem posted.
I have a Gigabyte Z68MX-UD2H-B3 and decided to go with a fresh install. So I followed the guide from this website and I can install from USB just fine, then when I reboot to USB and then choose my hard drive I can finish the install and everything is working except for sound (not a problem). Then when I go to MultiBeast and install anything (I have tried just the boot loader, and have tried the DSDT for my motherboard that has always worked in the past), but when I try to reboot from my hard drive I always just get the Apple logo, and the progress bar (with no progress) and it sits there forever!
If I try to boot on the USB stick again and choose my drive it still gets stuck on the same screen with the empty progress bar. The only thing I can do at this point is repartition the drive, and reinstall Yosemite, so that I am able to boot off USB, then choose my drive to load the OS again.
I know this has to be something ridiculously simple that I am not seeing/understanding. This is driving me crazy, any ideas???
Also, once my drive is in this state with the no-progress progress bar (as it is right now), can I somehow do something with MultiBeast or something else to fix it or do I have to reinstall and do something different with MultiBeast?
I thought it might be because my drive was an SSD, but I tried with a SATA HD and got the same results.
Thanks for any help!!!
