I made usb installation of Yosemite 10.10.2 with Chameleon bootloader on Virtual machine, replaced kernel and pthread.kext from this post. Booted from usb and installed Mac almost without errors (had kernel panic on restart after successfull installation). But when i tried to perform first boot from HDD via usb i got black screen and then reboot. I tried to boot with flags AtiConfig=Pitcrain AtiPorts=4 PciRoot=1 as recommended for radeon 7850 but no sucsess. When trying to boot with flag GraphicsEnabler=Yes get Memorry allocation error.

My specs are:

CPU: Phenom II X4 810

MB: Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P

GPU: ASUS HD7850-DC2-2GD5-V2

RAM: 6 Gb

I made new usb-installer of yosemite 10.10.2 with tool from this thread, then replace kernel in \System\Llibrary\Kernels and add pthread.kext to \Extra\Extentions folders with this one from this post. Then I made installation without errors, but can't perform first boot as i wrote before. First bootloader read kexts then appears black screen for a 2 sec and then reboot. I think that kernel doesn't start at all as i not see kernel start log with -v flag

did you boot without cache? ( - f  in bootloader)

 

iirc, some previous revisions of chameleon had reboot issue on some cpu/board. id try the latest from trunk as this was proven to fix those issue

Can you post link to right revision of chameleon, please. It's strange for me that installer starts normaly from usb (it uses the same kernel that have to start mac os x from hdd) and doesn't work from hdd.
