PsychoKoopa Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I have a working Niresh Yosemite 10.10.5 install on my PC with Clover UEFI as the bootloader. I'd like to update it to El Capitan if possible. I've tried to do it through the Install El Capitan update app as I heard that it works as long as you have Clover. The program worked fine but when I try to boot into the Installer through Clover, I get the black Apple screen (without loading bar) followed by a black screen with a circle and a slash through it. I booted in verbose and got a message saying something about it not being able to boot. Any suggestions or other ways to upgrade to El Capitan?

MaLd0n Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Use fresh install and avoid problems -Create USB bootable http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/559-flash-drive-maker/ -After create, install Clover in UEFI mode or LEGACY, Check ur bios config https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/files/Installer/ -Put FakeSmc in Clover/Kexts/Other Arquivo Comprimido.zip -Config.plist config.plist.zip After install if u can, post ur files here -Run it RunMe.app.zip and it IORegistryExplorer 3.app.zip -If u can check Processor Power, Temp and Frequency use it Intel® Power Gadget v3.0.3.dmg.zip BTW Go to Sierra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychoKoopa Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 I followed you instructions but it didn't work. I get into the clover menu but when I select the usb it doesn't boot. I just get a black screen with a bunch of plus signs on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychoKoopa Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 I tried downgrading Clover on the USB and it did the same thing. Any ideas why or other method? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
