Chimera has been updated to version 4.1 with support for Broadwell CPUs and Integrated graphics. Chimera is recommended for all users, and will be included by default in the next MultiBeast and UniBeast releases.
Clover Bootloader is a great boot loader, it supports both UEFI and Legacy. This article will guide you how to install Clover Bootloader on USB from Windows and Linux. Download Clover Bootloader ISO here. Its ISO file was compressed into a file named CloverISO-4428.tar.lzma. This is a 64-bit version, the 32-bit version has been discontinued. #1 - Extract and run Chameleon bootloader for Windows by determining the appropriate theme and make sure it is installed. From here, you should see 3 files in the C: directory: 'avldr.bin', 'wowpc.iso', and 'avlgo.sys'. Reboot and you see a bootable item 'Chameleon' in WBM (Windows Boot Manager) as a bootable item. Attempt to run Chameleon.
Chimera v4.1 Changes:
- Based on Chameleon 2.2 r2421
- Includes all Chimera 4.0.1 enhancements
- Added Broadwell CPU support
- Added Broadwell Integrated graphics support for Intel HD 5300, 5500, 6000

Hi Tamas,
You must have observed that with many old (real) Mac pro users trying to install OSX 10.8 on unsupported Macs, such users have become a fresh group of users for your bootloader. But, we have a problem: on boot, we get a fixed hardware UUID. This is not same as the Mac’s real UUID (which we can see by booting using a supported OSX version); nor can it be set to the real UUID by using SMsystemid string within smbios (I tried a few builds of r2.1). This causes problems where are licenses are authorised against the real UUID. Could you pls see if this UUID can be overwritten using smbios plist file or Chameleon can query and use the actual UUID from real Mac hardware. Many thanks, MadanLinda · 20. October 2012, 03:40 · #
Wonderful job. Thanks a lot. BTW, the link of Chameleon-2.1-r2069.pkg.zip is mistakenly pointed to the Chameleon-2.1-r2069.iso.zip.

If not able to boot, delete modules folder and try again.

To download the .pkg use this url instead as the fileID is incorrect in the current link: http://chameleon.osx86.hu/file_download/41/Chameleon-2.1-r2069.pkg.zip

When i try to run your bootloader it gets stuck on “BootCache: hit rate below threshold (1615 hits on 3231 lookups)”. This is right of the bat after a fresh install no custom kext whatsoever on the machine.
Any thoughts?

This r2069 version corrupts my boot drive from time to time, forcing me to recreate it with Disk Utility/Migration Assistant.
Here is a description of what happens …
I will have a freshly built boot disk which needs a bootloader installed connected as an external USB drive. I run the installer from this page, aiming it at the USB mounted drive. The install runs about 2/3 of the way through, mounts the EFI partition on my desktop and then promptly gets stuck @ “Running installer scripts”. At this point I get a spinning wheel and I can only cold boot my system.
After this, my system will no longer boot to a logon screen. It just gets stuck at the white, empty screen w/active cursor.
The mounted USB drive was successfully made bootable but my host machine is hosed. This has happened to me with this installer about 6-8 times on 3 different host machines each running a different version of OS X, Snow Leo, Lion and Mountain Lion.
I have been using these Chameleon installers for a couple years and have never seen this happen before.
Nasty !

Hi. I use this solution for overclocking and i have some questions about it.
- Busratio flag works with no changes? – Where is a limit of cpu frequency; – Multiplier is deprecated? – How can i fix bus speed.
I look this stats in CPU-X interface after boot with overclocking settings in chameleon plist and i have some questions aboot overclocking internal Intel HD2000.
I have hot CPU, Memory and bus, but my HD2000 is stupid ): How can i fire it?
… And display rates … Now i change it to 120 Gz : no changes :D
Is all of it works?
How can I dump and firmware image flash in my UEFI from chameleon )))))) ?
TNX … many questions eat my brain :D

I was wondering if this is made for only Windows or if you can use it on a Mac. I am new to this boot loader and I am a little confused on the topic.

Hi, I used chameleon 2 rc2 r640 instead of the newest one, and then
I didnt get a black screen on my dell inspiron 9400 with nvidia go 7900 gs – this card exists in two revisions. I also have higher resolution than before, though no qe ce it seems as this isnt even mentioned in system profiler, system preferences says 1280×1024 though, my screen is really 1900×1200 and the pixels are a bit blurry as image is scaled.with latest chameleon – screen goes black.
Can you guys give me sources of chameleon 2 rc2 r640, as there is no such functional source on site? please mail to rungrangkei@gmail.com
best regards,
r2d2 – human robot ;)

Used chameleon iso – old one for swappin discs – then I used retail snow leopard 10.6.3 disc as that was the only one I had available, and edited pid and vid to be 0×029810de&0xfff0ffff
and added voodotscsync. and voodoohdarest worked out of the box, I had display all the time even before the edit. new chameleon always gave black screen, so in that one I could not have graphics enabler on even – that only works in r640.

In un esperimento successivo, Allesina ha esaminato la distribuzione geografica del nepotismo in Italia. Con questo modello, ha testato la probabilità di avere lo stesso cognome di un altro professore nello stesso settore disciplinare e osservato come i valori ottenuti varino da Nord a Sud. pur vero che il modello ha riscontrato un accentuato gradiente Nord Sud, con la probabilità di nepotismo che aumenta andando verso Sud, per culminare nelle isole. però altrettanto evidente che nella parte alta della classifica ci sono prestigiose università del Nord: Modena e Reggio Emilia (15 posto), Parma (23), San Raffaele di Milano (25), Genova (29), seguite immediatamente da Ferrara e Pavia.
