moomanjohnny Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Hey guys, recently I built a new computer rig. Everything is working great under windows on another hard drive, but when my Samsung EVO 850 came in I quickly got started on trying to get Yosemite on it. So I made a Clover install USB and plugged it into my computer. But when I try to boot the installer I get a kernel panic. Here's the specs of the computer: CPU: Intel Core i5 4690k (no overlock yet, running at stock speeds.) GPU: MSI Gaming 4G GTX 970 (removed for installation, read it on reddit somewhere) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97M-D3H RAM: Crucial 8gbx2 (Only one ram stick in for installation, again, read it on reddit somewhere) I have tried every single boot arg I could think of, and I need this up and running really quick because I am creating a video for my science teacher and I only have the Adobe suite for mac, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Johnny Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/308219-new-computer-build-kernel-panics-when-trying-to-boot-install-usb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangten Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 www.rampagedev.com try using his DMG for Haswell, Follow his instructions they are very well thought out. He has a pre-made SSDT for your motherboard.

Hangten Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 <key>Arguments</key> <string>npci=0x2000 nvda_drv=1 kext-dev-mode=1</string> Try using this in your config.plist Did you, put the appropriate kext's in your Clover boot loader? What Mac model are you using in your simbios?
