So, first of all thank you to Niresh for all of his hard work. I ended up here after TonyMacs forum users made me feel terrible.
My build:
Asus Maximus IV Gene Z Gen 3 mobo
i7 2600k
32 GB patriot DDr3 ram
EVGA GTX560ti
Seagate 500 gb 7200 HD
I burned the ML distro to a DVD and made it all the way through installation. I installed kexts etc during the os x installer (including bootlaoder etc). Previously using multibeast I couldn't even get to the OS X installer.
After rebooting and removing the DVD the bootloader didn't kick in, even if I select the drive with OSX installed on it. I can only get os x to load with the DVD inserted. It was freezing on the white background with infinite spinning wheel (I let it sit for an hour). So I used -v to see what was up. It makes it through several screens and freezes at this screen (see attached). I'm not sure what kind of boot flag magic could get it past this I've used -f -x GraphicsEnabler etc.
I did some research about my board, evidently some people flash the BIOS with a patch because of power management issues. Obviously I'm worried about having to do that and wondering if it's entirely necessary.
Please see link for the screen I hit...
Thanks in advance.
