I am attempting to install 10.9 on my AMD computer. It's going much better than when I tried to install OS 10.8, but not a hell of a lot.

I downloaded the AMD kernel for the FX processors from here:

http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Patched_Kernels

And I replaced the standard Mach Kernel with it. 

 

Here is the hardware

 

FX6300

Gigabyte 990FXAUD3

XFX Double D 7950

8GB of RAM

 

I used MyHack to create the installer with the retail copy from the app store.

 

boot flags: arch=x86_64 PCIRootID=0 npci=0x2000 CPUs=1 GraphicsEnabler=No -v -f -x maxmem4096

 

It gets much farther than it did with 10.8, but it still hangs.

This is where it hangs:

So any ideas on where to go from here?

Maybe check the spelling typed flags because you have errors - PCIRootUID=0 maxmem=4096 cpus=1

I know that the capital letters are important too, so check this again.

Maybe try use USBBusFix=Yes with Chameleon.

Unfortunately I don't know Clover very much :)

Here are the flags I used to get the installer to work. Waiting to see if I can actually run OS X without issues.

 

"arch=x86_64 -v -f -cpufamily PCIRootUID=1 USBBusFix=Yes npci=0x2000 maxmem=4096 GraphicsEnabler=No"

 

Hope this helps someone else!!!
