backup first all graphics kexts, now delete all from S/L/E USBInstaller

Still the same...

ok, see if you have SMBIOS in Extra, if you not have you need smbios MacBookPro6,1 and boot with -f -v GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x3000 or 0x2000 and copy the two kexts from Extra for S/LE USBInstaller

yes, I have the correct SMBIOS in my Extra and I did what you said. But it's still stuck on "DSMOS has arrived"

[iFIRE]

be patient, Sony Vayo is very difficult for install, you can try delete SMBIOS, and go for S/L/E Usbinstaller and delete AppleIntelCPUPowermanegemente.kext
You have delete all Graphics kexts??? NVidia, ATI, INTEL ???
use always the boot flag

-f -v GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x3000 cpus=1

EDIT: USE THIS BOOT FLAG: -f -v GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x3000 cpus=1 busratio=20

try

again!!!!

Removed the cache. I just followed the instructions on olarila and used a software to write the downloaded .raw file to my USB. I think it is GUID. Here's the screenshot.

sory, but I need photo of error, boot only with -v -f -x busratio=20 npci=0x2000 and take one photo and poste here

[kushsolitary]

I need USBBusFix=Yes also otherwise it gets stuck at USBF errors. So I'll try with -v -f -x busratio=20 npci=0x2000 USBBusFix=Yes and post.

Edit: With these commands

Hi!

It looks like a graphics issue. Try adding either PCIRoot=0 (try this first) or PCIRoot=1, with both GraphicsEnabler=Y and GraphicsEnabler=N, to the boot flags you're already using.

Report back, please.

Same result with all the four combinations.

P.S.: if it doesn't work, add -s boot flag (single user) and try this:

fsck -fy
mount -uw /
mkdir /intelhd_backup
cd /System/Library/Extensions
mv AppleIntelHD* AppleIntelSNB* /intelhd_backup

Then reboot. Maybe this is some problem with your Intel HD. That was common with Lion.

P.P.S.: type the commands exactly as written.

I don't have Intel HD and I have already deleted the AppleIntelHD*.kext files alongwith ATI*.kext and NVDA*.kext .
Edit: My inbuilt keyboard doesn't work when using the -s flag. But the USB keyboard works!

in the photo OS X INSTALL USB is very Low DISK danger limit, see if you not plug USB in port esata, use other port USB 2.0 and try again

[theconnactic]

Wow, that's hard!

I'm assuming you have the latest chameleon installed, right? Older versions are unlikely to boot ML.

I tried all three USB2.0 ports on my laptop

Wow, that's hard!

I used this http://www.olarila.c...php?f=27&t=1627 so I assume it is with working Chameleon version.

Well, it's a dead end for me. Don't know what more to advise, except to redo everything from scratch. Wait for other people to help you, but if anything works, try this method: http://myhack.sojuga.../mountain-lion/

Good luck!

I am going to start from scratch now.

if you have other PC or laptop try boot of installer for test if this boot the installer, this can be your USB is very slow for install, test it

Both my other PC and laptop are ancient (with p4/core2duo and 512MB/1GB without AHCI) so there's no chance of boot.
