Now boot From the Volume Yosemite-Zone

There is a possibility of Instant reboot for custom kernel users as the kernel may not install
automatically but 99% of users doesnt need this step and safely ignore this
to fix it after Installation Do Not Reboot Open Terminal
I assume that the kernel you used as haswell and The Installation Volume where you installed Mac
as Mac OS
(Replace following code variables with appropriate kernel and volume name)

cpf/Volumes/"ImageVolume"/haswell/Volumes/"MacOS"/System/Library/Kernels/ker
nel
rmrf/Volumes/"MacOS"/System/Library/Caches
kextcacheu/Volumes/"MacOS"Thenreboot

Sometimes if the USB flash light stopped after a few seconds you may have to use the following
BootFlags

USBBusFix=YesEnabletheEHCIandUHCIfixes(disabledbydefault).
EHCIacquire=YesEnabletheEHCIfix(disabledbydefault).
UHCIreset=YesEnabletheUHCIfix(disabledbydefault).
USBLegacyOff=YesForceUSBLegacyoff(disabledbydefault).

Select the Volume where you want to Install OS X from Left SideBar
Erase it as Mac OS X Extender (Journaled) Journaled is Better (Erasing is similar to Format in
Windows)

Customizing the Installation Packages
Customizing may be required to resolve errors
If you have booted with any special flags example like USBBusFix=Yes, npci=0x2000, .

minutes from boot
otherwise the password remains as same as the one which apple set for root account
About the rumors:
Some may say Distros are bad may contain malware, spyware that may be true
but Hackintosh.Zone previously called Niresh has been trusted for 4 years by the community of
more than 160K Members
If you want to check if it contains some bad malware you can just check it by Installing Little Snitch
and Monitor your Internet Traffic
This distro contains some additional kexts which you may not require and some may say that why
install unnecessary kexts & stuffs
those additional stuffs be inactive if your system doesnt have the hardware but what if your
mother board gone damaged and replaced with a new model, you can just simply plug the hard
disk and run the OS X as same as before without Reinstalling and setting up entire computer once
again
The Time of Installing Mac with a Retail DvD Image is gone, This is your Easy choice
if you trust me Im always with you
I have spent a lot of sleepless nights while making this Installer
