It is not possible to start the installation of High Sierra. I use a clover and a minimal set kexts, it's cursing at boot, it's not Mac. 

Tell me in which direction to move, so that I can launch Highe Sierra on my hardware? 

Thank you in advance!)

MaLd0n,

Please help, I followed your instructions and I can't get anything at all after verifying DMI - it's a blank screen with a cursor.

Things I've done:

1. BIOS set to ACHI. Chose USB-HDD as primary boot

2. 16GB USB formatted in Mac OS Extended using GUID (GPT)

3. Created a bootable USB with High Sierra

4. Installed Clover on same USB with Legacy settings: Install Boot0af in MBR, CloverEFI 64bit SATA, EMUVariableUEFI-64, OSXaptioFixDrv 64, PartitionDxe 64.

5. Replaced Clover folder with yours.

 

I have Mavericks now on this system using Chameleon. I'd like to have High Sierra on a new SSD

My system:

Q9550

GA P35-DS4 V2

GT260 Nvidia

 

THanks for your time

Thanks

but I just tried that and it’s still stuck on the same blank screen. 

 

It displays verifying dmi pool data...6 

then it goes to a blank screen with a static cursor on a top left corner

I tried different versions of clover and I still can't boot into clover. I can't even see the clover menu it's stuck on a black screen with a cursor. 

I'm on BIOS F14, could that be an issue? anyone else had the same problem?

Try to disable uefi and install with boot0af.

I thought P35DS4 isn't UEFI capable? 

Just for testing, I used a couple of 2GB USB formatted to MBR instead if GPT i have laying around and just load Clover with different customizations at Clover install, nothing else. I checked off Boot0ss, CloverEFI 64 bit and everything under Driver64. And it worked and booted Clover - but intermittently. Once I shut off the computer and restart again, it won't recognize Clover. 

 

This post has the same issue I'm describing. https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/tickets/228/

Black screen, boot1 :/boot 6

i install OSX in many old mobos, if i used config above...no problems

I'm not saying I'm doubting that; obviously its working for many people. I just need help getting the right settings - like is it my BIOS settings, is it my GPU that's conflicting or even the memory ... I don't know. because there's something that's stopping Clover from booting. 

 

I also realize the last item "Install Clover Preference Pane" is grayed out on my screen unless I install Clover directly to the computer, but your screenshot shows it's selected even when installing to the USB.
