The Unibeast usb stick creation was successful,
in my case "legacy" without additional injection of any graphics kexts.
Booting from the stick now reaches the clover screen for boot device selection.
Booting verbose only without selecting any other option leads (repeatedly) to:
P-State Stepper error 18 at step 2 in context 2 on CPU0
Same result for booting in "safe mode" and "without caches".
Different issue when booting "without caches and injected kexts":
.

(Date/Time) iMac.local com.apple.xpc.launchd(1) (org.ntp.sntp.117) (Warning). Service exited with abnormal code. 255
UPDATE: As a crosscheck, I tried UniBeast 6.0.1 which boots all the way to the El Capitan installer without problems.
UPDATE II:
Found the reason after comparing the files on the 6.0.1 and 6.1.1 created USB sticks:
The 6.1.1 created stick is missing NullCPUPowerManagement.kext on the EFI partition of the USB stick in EFI>CLOVER>kexts>10.11
If you can´t wait until Unibeast is fixed, help yourself by copying the mentioned kext into that location prior boot. To get that EFI partition mounted use the terminal command (which I don´t have at hand right now) from the install instructions or set disk utility>debug menu>"show every partition" and thereafter mount the EFI partition via the "mount" button from disk utility´s main window.
