Hello all :)

So I've been trying to install El Capitan on my HP Pavilion 15-ab011nu for some time but the most far I've gone is the Apple logo and it seems that I can't pass by it, so I thought to ask for some help.

I've created my bootable USB using this method - http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/307003-clover-os-x-el-capitan-usb/ in VirtualBox running El Capitan.

I've tried -v but only I got to the Apple logo with nv_disable=1.

 

Here are my specifications:

 
Intel Core i5-5200U with Intel HD Graphics 5500​ /Broadwell-U/

   NVIDIA GeForce 940M

 

Laptop - http://support.hp.com/hr-en/document/c04741682

 

And here are my screens with the boots I tried:

I put it on true but it sill doesn't work  :( 

 

here is the config attachicon.gifconfig.rar

The photos in post #1 do not correlate with this config.plist. If you were using that config.plist, the kernel flags in Boot/Arguments would show in the panic (-v -gux_defer_usb2 kext-dev-mode=1 rootless=0).

 

Make sure you're booting from the EFI/Clover you think you are...

I do boot from the same config file, I just tried changing the boot arguments to try to run it but had no luck :(

You need to provided updated photo and files.

It is a different panic entirely (no longer a "lapic panic").

 

Your problem is Broadwell graphics. You need to set DVMT-prealloc to 64mb (BIOS option, google for procedures).
