Wow, what a guy!

Bob, you are really, *really* talented my friend. I think you should work for Apple, as your knowledge is sharp, fast and extremely detailed without error or "uhhhm" or "errmmm" comments. You are just like me in the level of knowledge you have, and the manner in which you present that knowledge to people.

Thank you for this video, irrespective of whether or not I am able to use this for my build, thank you all the same for being a precious fellow human being with SUCH talents exuding from you - may God bless you my friend, you are so gifted.

I have installed OS X Yosemite on my 2 computers. One is working fine but the other doesn't show any audio output devices and can't change the sound effects also. The startup sound is still there. I have tried few things but nothing is working for me.
I don't want to backup the data and reinstall because I have some important software which I don't want to reinstall. Please help me to solve the problem.

I have been running OS X 10.10 since release date on my hackintosh with everything working audio, ethernet, graphics, bluetooth.  It seems fairly stable with the exception of some artifacts on the screen. Good tutorial for others that didn't get it running on their system yet, took a lot of piecing together and 5 hours to get it to work on day 1.  It's awesome seeing iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 working together although there are still bugs to work out

I get error: "Missing bluetooth controller transport"
And right under is "Waiting for root device"

What should I do?

Hi Bob Roche  I have followed your instructions and get the following error when trying to boot from clover DSC 8572

I'm just about to sign up for the official beta... By later this summer when the AppleSeed program starts for non-developers it should be somewhat more polished than this DP1 is at the moment. Thanks for this tutorial Bob! I can't wait to try it on my i7-3770k system! :)

This looks awesome!  I can't wait to get this through Apple's OS X beta program!

[srikeshvl]

went about all the things you said. i'm stuck on a grey screen while booting up after installation. any suggestion would be appreciated.

I can't get it work on Msi gd65 z87 board. When I push the install Osx Yosemite button system making reboot.

[domini]

I keep ending up into a grey screen with a cursor. Any help?

[CallusDnb]

Where have I gone wrong? I followed all the steps (correctly I think)

When my computer boots I press F12 to select boot device. I select the USB stick and it just brings me to a screen saying
'Reboot and select proper boot device'

Im using an I5 2500, Gigabyte H61m Ds2, and 4GB Hyper x ram.

After the typing of commands in single user all well and good, got to boot into the installer and my monitor shows "No Signal", graphics issue somehow? I seem to be trying everything and yet no solution

[myowncomputerstuff]

Can someone get back to me on this. I got the routine pop up that a new update for Adobe Flash is available. When selecting my OS, there is a choice between "Mac OS X 10.6 - 10.9" or "Mac OS X (Preview build)". 
I am running the Yosemite beta and don't know whether "preview build" means 10.10 or not.

[heresjhonny]

How come your dock is on the left side of the screen

[ryanwade]

Tried one more time and saying it won't load some kind of desktop thing in PrivateFrameworks. And after that it says error 107 malformed bundle

[daisybeautyof]

I got Black screen (like screen off) when type exit

What problem here?
