I installed Chameleon bootloader on hdd (i've downloaded it from here: http://chameleon.osx86.hu/static/some-words-about-donation?ref=file_download/42/Chameleon-2.1-r2069.pkg.zip ) And when i boot from my hdd loader it stuck at "System uptime in nanoseconds = ..." . When i boot from the loader of my installing usb everything loads fine and it doesn't stuck anywhere. Here is the installing log:

I tried with the newest chameleon 2.3 r2510 and it doesn't stuck at system time in nanoseconds but when it is done loading my screen goes to stand by mode.(i can make a video to show you) I tried booting with PciRoot=4 but there was no change. Can somebody help me? :)

if you have yosemite, the use this one for the installer http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/301138-new-usb-installer-os-x-yosemite-chameleon-r2510-v5/?p=2064388

if you have 10.9 or 10.8 then go with myhack at http://myhack.sojugarden.com/guide/

in every case of the installer, you will need appleatapii.kext in /S/L/E/

you need to boot with -f -v.

when done install you need to install extra as post installation.

I made a 10.10 installer with Unibeas(t) and booted with -f -v PciRoot=4 everything loaded fine but my screen went black(my monitor went to stand by). I also tried to boot in safe mode but nothing changed

Then i change my video card (Nvidia 9600) with Nvidia 7200 and again booted with -v -f(without pciroot), everything loaded and i saw the installer. I installed the os and booted (again with -v -f). It loaded perfectly and i saw my desktop but in 1024x768 resolution... :( And now i don't know what to do. With nvidia 9600 screen goes black, with nvidia 7200 the resolution is 1024x768 and i can't change it... Do you have an idea what is going on?

Thank God i managed to run yosemite. I used -f -v GraphicsEnabler=Yes PciRoot=4 boot flags. I installed the newest chameleon loader and then copied two kexts from extra-10.10-ps-410.zip to bootdrive/System/Library/Extensions and a message pop up saying "System extension cannot be used - The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it,  or contact the product's vendor for an update." And this happend to all kexts i've tried to install.
