No I don't think that's correct, macOS can boot from any disk, it doesn't matter how big it is as long as it's correctly formatted. GUID partition scheme is the correct format though. I think you need to make everything from scratch to avoid any unnecessary headaches.

Cyberdevs Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 BIOS settings vary from system to system, it depends of the mainboard and the BIOS revisions as well. I pointed you to that topic to know more about BIOS settings so if your BIOS features are different that's normal. Take a look at this topic: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/323052-guide-sierra-high-sierra-mojave-on-intel-5-6-7-8-9-and-x99-chipset-series-nehalem-sandybridge-ivybridge-haswell-broadwell/ you can find many useful information there.

ezyrdr Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 i erased the sierra disk i had to do a clean install an now verbose get stuck at the very beginning. when it booted it hangs at like tree minutes before finishing, as allways with the createinstallmedia method. bu it wont finish with an update, it just keep reintalling from scratch. now clover gets stuck and i will have to reinstall sierra without mojave. sorry i forgot to say im now tryin to intall mojave it seems the fakesmc that clover configurator installs (with the sensors) was the main difference. since the other kexts are lilu hda and usb fix Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/334679-existing-sierra-10126-cant-make-visible-high-sierra-install-disk/page/3/#findComment-2640025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
