4. Install UniBeast onto the USB drive.
   • No need for "Legacy USB Support".
   • No need for "Laptop Support".
   • Do NOT choose any "Intel HD 3000" graphics card options. Leave off all selections.
     • The NUC has Intel HD 5000. Otherwise you may run into an infinite loop of reboot and never see the OS X installation welcome gui.
5. Copy the following onto your mounted USB volume when UniBeast is finished:
   • RehabMan-FakePCIID-2015-1229
   • EFI Mounter v2
   • Easykext Utility
   • MultiBeast
   • (optional) Clover Configurator

1. Connect USB keyboard and mouse.
2. Hit F10 when NUC boot screen is shown. Choose your USB.
3. You should now be able to boot into the OS X installation wizard via the USB flash drive.
4. Use Disk Utility to format the SSD drive to OS X Extended Journaled. Use 1 Partition, and name it "Macintosh HD".
5. Continue to set it up. Wifi won't be working until later. Skip any Wifi or iCloud set up.
6. When done, drag all files (minus the "Install El Capital.app") from your USB drive mount onto the Desktop.

1. Under Quick Start: Select UEFI Boot Mode.
2. Under Drivers/Audio: Select ALX283 Brix Pro and NUC. This enables sound.
3. Under Customize/SSDT Options: Select Sandy Bridge Core i5. (Not sure what this does, but this NUC is an i5).
4. Configuration should look like this: Screenshot

Unplug USB drive and restart OS X.
