Hello everyone,

 

I had sierra os running nice and clean (still needed some work to get wifi to work) and I decided to install windows into a second partition in the same hard drive. I used the official microsoft media creator to make a bootable usb and, even though the install failed, it still managed to mess up my sierra installation. Now, when I select macOS Sierra in clover it will give me a Kernel Panic:

Please help  :(

Do you have a copy of your Clover boot configuration on a USB key? You could try booting with that. I expect that Windows has done something to your EFI partition.

 

Always make a backup before messing with your machine. If you have one you could restore from that.

 

Lastly, I've had some KPs after running Win 10 and booting back into Mac OS after a restart. Apparently Win 10 sometimes writes something to the UEFI Bios (?) A shutdown and restart from Win 10 fixes that, but it's leaving my drives in a questionable state (something about fast boot in Win 10,) even rebooting to Windows 7.

hi, thanks for the reply. The problem seemed to be that i was installing Windows in legacy mode. I reinstalled macOS and then installed Windows in UEFI mode in a GPT partition, now it's working like a charm.
