yperomatik Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Hello everyone! I am trying to install El Capitan 10.11.4 on my laptop Asus X751LX using Clover. I managed to succesfully reach the install with no problems, but when I go to Disk Utility in order to prepare my HD, it simply isn't on the list. The only drive it sees is the usb I'm using as installer. Here are my PCI devices: And this is what I see when I do "diskutil list" in terminal I attach my EFI folder with config.plist inside and other stuff. Any Ideas?

Allan Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Hello, and welcome to InsanelyMac! You already have setted AHCI mode in your BIOS? If you have used UEFI method, you boot your Pendrive as UEFI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yperomatik Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Thanks yes to both questions. That's why I'm groping in the dark right now. If I manage to get most of it working, I will be happy tomake a guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yperomatik Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 I used createinstallmedia on a a hfs partition and then clover on FAT32 partition in the same USB drive. WHat is SATA controller option in BIOS? I don't think I have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I used createinstallmedia on a a hfs partition and then clover on FAT32 partition in the same USB drive. Hmmm, that's strange...try again with this guide: Making a 10.10/10.11 USB Installer /w Clover (UEFI and Legacy) the correct way! If in UEFI this issue persists, you can try the Legacy way. WHat is SATA controller option in BIOS? I don't think I have it Some BIOS have this option, and sometimes inside these option are selected in IDE mode instead SATA.

AppleIIGuy Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Give your hardware specs when necessary (asking for support) and any other time where it may be beneficial to have them listed. We cant help you unless you post system specs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco.pisellonio80 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I suggest you, apart from the problem, to install in an external HD, and then to clone the partition using superduper or CCCloner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
