Try with Clover 4533 - latest

 

Some people were having no luck with 4522.

 

There is now ApfsDriverLoader to be used instead of apfs.efi.

 

Loads the apfs from the container itself. So no more updating / patching required.

i try and let u know ;)

thank u :D

EDIT: Nope alwayse stuck at the apple logo

the installation go fine ,it's alwayse the 1st boot the problem :(

It could be the USB port is shutting down.    Hit the space bar and choose verbose boot and see where it stops and post a pic.

If i boot verbose he stuck here :/

i also tried with single user or safe, but same stuck here too

Mario1964,

If this is the first boot then the install process shouldn't have completed since it usually takes a few reboots to complete the full install? Can you clarify when this reboot took place? How far along the progress bar when it rebooted? If that is the case then when you're at the clover boot screen you should be selecting the one that says something to the effect Boot OSX Install from Install..... if memory serves me correctly.

it's the REAL 1st boot after the installation progress , the installation go fine.

 

EDIT: Just to try , i put it inside the pc (sata) and it worked without doing nothing , i made the language selection , account etc.

i tried again external (cause i need it external) and again freeze here:

so i don't know what can be :(

 

if it could be useful with the HFS+ OS it work as external , only as APFS i got this problem

 

Hope this can help

 I had this with my RX 480 and RX 460 cards, I picked up a Displayport adapter to HDMI and it works.     My cards don't work with HDMi connection or at least they didn't in beta 1.

 

 

Are you using HDMi cable?

from the sound of the issue, it sounds like FakSMC injection is not working, because the install does not use FakeSMC it will run and allow you to get through the install, but when you do the (first real boot) it triggers the FakeSMC(modules) but they are not loaded and causing a lag and only gray screen.
