New Sierra installation boots, then hits BIOS

Hi, All.

 

I've recently got myself a hackintosh build: i54690k @ 3.5Ghz, 256gb SSD, Cosair VS550 PSU, Gigabyte Z97N-Wifi, Fury Hyperx 8gb Ram, Gygabyte GTX 750Ti graphics.

 

And while that's great and all, if I can't boot, it's useless.

I have an 8gb USB2.0 stick, with Sierra installer and clover on it. I plug it into the USB 2.0 port on the machine, push power, f12, General UDisk, and receive the following for about 0.5 of a second:

 

boot0: test

Boot0: done

boot1: /boot6

 

Then my BIOS hits, and I'm stuffed. There is a 'continue' button, which when clicked, flickers the screen and goes back to square 1.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

create usb stick again e follow procedure

It's done it again.

I thought about maybe using a different bootloader. Any suggestions?

I also thought of partitioning the USB with a dedicated EFI partition. Would that work?

Okay. This is what I've got so far:

A USB drive with 3 partitions: Efi, Clover & MacOS.

Obviously, the first two are to boot into clover. This works.

Currently, I'm running createinstallmedia to put MacOS on the third partition, then I'll boot and see how it goes. Will report back.

 

Edit: That's done it. Got it going. Just need to get wifi, graphics, etc. running now. Thanks, all!
