I am trying to install Sierra on an External hard drive on an Asus F541U Laptop.

 

The touchpad doesn't work but the keyboard does, (I tried Voodooi2c without success)

 

anyway the laptop has 2 regular USB ports and one USB-C which are occupied by the installer disk and the target disk, and I don't have any USB-C device, so I can't plug a USB mouse

 

Anyway with the keyboard I can go up to the target disk selection screen, I am unable to select the target one and continue. Tried tab key, arrow keys like previous ones and nothing

 

Any help will be appreciated :)

If you can't identify your specific model of TouchPad, try the various PS2 controller kexts that exist for ALPS, Elan, Synaptics hardware until you find one that works...

Thank you, I can't identify its brand, but in Windows it's marked as high precision touchpad and using  i2c (that's why I've tried Voodooi2c without success). I will try your links

 

Anyway I've managed to install it by Enabling Voiceover and navigating there with the keyboard, seems to work fine.

 

Now I will try to fix the Touchpad, some graphic glitches around top bar and windows, Wifi, Sound, Ethernet, brightness control, and battery percentage indicator  :)
