My CPU problem was solved by changing SMBios to MacPro 3.1. Also Cameron's code would have probably helped. 

After that there were USB problem which was solved by disabling onboard USB 3.0. After that I was able to get it installing.

Disabling USB 3 didn't do the trick for me.

I am using the same settings for both El Cap and Yosemite (the two share a drive) literally - three switches: -v (verbose boot), npc 0x2000 (added by Clover for nVidia support) and kext-dev-mode =1 (unsigned driver support for both OSes).  The last switch obviates the need for a separate switch for rootless-boot (it was Darwin's bootstrapper that confirmed a rootless boot, despite the LACK of a separate switch for it).  Basically, if you set kext-dev-mode=1, you don't need rootless=0 (at least with Clover).

Got it running with surprisingly little work. Thank you to everyone in the community!

 

Clover v3215 with CSM disabled

 

Driver64UEFI:

emuvariableuefi-64, hfsplus, osxaptiofixdrv-64 and partitiondxe-64

 

Kexts:

fakesmc (6.14.1364) and appleintele1000e

 

Bootflag:

rootless=0

Hi, can you attach your config.plist for my reference ?

Because I always got CPU panic and reboot after installation of 10.11 Beta even using these parameters your post here.

[solved reboot problem]

CPU panic is caused by EvOreboot.kext in /System/Library/Extensions.

After deleting it I can boot now.

 

[unsolved problem]

Intel HD 4600 Graphics must be disabled in BIOS at first, otherwise only Safe Boot is working but loss of audio function.

Booting with AMD HD 7950 is perfect with its HDMI audio by Clover.

I just remove both kext-dev-mode=1 and rootless=0 bootflags, install FakeSMC and other kexts to /S/L/E, they still work perfectly!

 

I doubt it!

Notice it is only you!

All I know is, when I turn off USB3 in my bios I lose wake from sleep in both 10.10.3 and 10.11.DP1 soooooooo when all is figured out with USB then I'll make the switch to 10.11.DPX because I like when my machine wakes from sleep and I like that it conserves power when it does sleep so I won't be running a system that doesn't sleep.

 

Hopefully DP2 is a whole lot better on the USB front.

Other than USB from the Etron chip everything is fine on my Z77-D3H. Stable, fast (doesn't feel slower than Yosemite, but I didn't measure exactly).

 

I've still got some problems with iMessage: it is now enabled. I installed EC over Yo 10.10.3, so I needed to erase all preferences and security files that influenced iMessage. Now I just need a way to make handoff work. Loggin out/in on iCloud, resetting network prefs on iPhone 6+ and hack didn't do the trick. Still investigating here...
