ameris_cyning Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) I myself have had this problem. It appears that the image you have was only the recovery image and it needs to download more things from the Internet to get it to work. I suggest using gibMacOS (if you have a Linux setup) as you can download the full BaseSystem.dmg Edited April 26, 2020 by ameris_cyning Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/343587-can-install-hackintosh-without-internet-connection-during-the-installer/#findComment-2719398 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using macOS to do this? What method are you using to create your USB installer? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/343587-can-install-hackintosh-without-internet-connection-during-the-installer/#findComment-2719429 Share on other sites More sharing options...
