MrTrip Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I've come a long way with this, and I'm currently typing this from the desktop of Yosemite but these are my issues I need help with really bad... First, this is my complete setup Mobo: ASUS Sabertooth 990FX CPU: AMD FX 8350 Black Edition GPU: ASUS Strix GTX 970 Mointors: 3 (DVI, DVI2VGA, DP2VGA) HDD: Single WD Raptor 74GB Boot Flags No NVIDIA: -v npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 nv_disable=1 Boot Flags NVIDIA: -v npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 nvda_drv=1 (DOES NOT BOOT) Boot Flags NVIDIA2: -v npci=0x2000 kext-dev-mode=1 nvda_drv=1 -x (Sits on black screens, then turns on my DVI Connected monitor with a mouse cursor and black background. No desktop. Nothing further.) Bootloader: CLOVER USB Boot Stick. (Unable to install a bootloader?) NVIDIA Driver. I just cannot make it work. If I enable it with nvda_drv=1 it goes through verbose boot to where it would drop me on the desktop and then black screen. Bootloader, for some reason I cannot boot from the hard drive alone. I need to use the USB Stick. I'm thinking MAYBE if I used the Chameleon Bootloader MAYBE I'd have better luck? But so far I can't get that to work at all. Always boots up saying ONLY "boot0ss: error" Nothing more, not multiple lines of it, just that. Any help would be great please, I'm so close I can taste it, I'm using it to type this post but its just so draggy because of the graphics I assume. Help?

MrTrip Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 what kernel ? I've honestly forgotten I apologize for this. I've gone through so many thinking maybe one will work.
