Hello everyone. i am creating this guide to help some people who are trying with not success to install MacOS... Sort story 2 days ago i downloaded the siera update started installation but could not complete. Had 2 issues. 1) the famous exited for abnormal code 1, 2) could not boot installer.

 

What i did now. Redownloaded the update started the app in aplications to start updating my system when it asked for restart i restarted. On clover first of all update clover to latest. Then there are two occasions the first is that you don't have nvidia web drivers installed so you hit spacebar and start the installer with verbose (to check for errors) and start with vesa drivers. the other one is to have already installed drivers so you start with nvidia drivers an verbose again.

 

Now for me the abnormal code error was for using the applealc.kext for my sound card. Don't use any kext from el capitan. Let the OTHER folder in clover clean, only with the fakesmc.kext there. i was able to update el capitan with no problems...

 

My system is gigabyte mobo h97m-d3h

                      cpu intel core i7 haswell 

                      gpu nvidia geforce gtx 660 2048mb

                      wifi card asus x68 ac 

                      12gb ram

 

Hope solving some issues with this!!!
