hashish.k Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 First try to install the latest version of clover bootloader on to your usb. If that does not solve it try using the create install media method to make your usb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your sata controller isn't supported in MacOS. You need the driver. https://infinit.io/_/3geMimQ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
