Stefan Milev Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi guys. I installed El Capitan to test it on my system. I have Yosemite fully working without issues. El Capitan is on separate partition and separate drive. To install it I had to use nv_disable=1 and as everyone else rootless=0. After installation I can boot without nv_disable=1 and I have full acceleration on GTX660 OC. After 2 days though it just stops booting properly. Boots normal up to the point where the login screen have to appear, but then I see black screen and the system reboots. I see no error in verbose boot. If I boot again with nv_disable=1 it boots ok and I can log in and use, but without graphics acceleration as you can suspect. My question is why it works in the beginning and after some days it just stops booting. I boot with Clover. I have a custom DSDT with minor changes, USB high current and HDMI sound. I have a SSDT because I overclock the 2600K to 4,4 Ghz. My specks are in my signature. P.S. I reinstalled again and the same story repeated.

RCOO Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Do you have any external monitors connected when the reboot happens? If so, try disconnecting them. I've had the same problem because I had an HDMI external monitor connected. I assumed the loading failed because of unpatched AppleHDA and OS X still trying to output sound to HDMI, but I could be completely wrong.

Stefan Milev Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Thank you for your reply. All my monitors are external. I have two in total, one HDMI and one DVI. I don't think that this is the reason because I have AppleHDA patched with Clover on the fly and I have sound. The problem is definitely in the DSDT. If I boot without it the boot process is OK and the system boots normal with graphics acceleration and sound. I'm thinking that maybe it's the USB edits that I made for USB high current. I'm attaching the file for reference.
