macOS Sierra 10.12.6 bootable USB for Intel PCs

[pernacabeluda]

If it's the case, you won't be able to use this image, you'll have to build the installer yourself, using a MBR formatted drive.

The process is the same as for Yosemite

Can you test the installer on another computer to certify it's the case?

Specifications:

What video card?

Try to press space bar and check nv_disable=1

[hershebmx]

My video card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 620

I already probe nv_disable = 1 and nothing has happened.

[pernacabeluda]

Which SMBIOS is Clover defining? Did you try a different one?

[hershebmx]

The truth, I have not seen that. I'll check tonight. Thanks Pernacabeluda, I'll tell you the results.

ERROR Booting Usb

Booting usb shows- The version of Mac OS not supported on this platform reason: mac f227bec8

How do I patch bootable usb to boot

[pernacabeluda]

Change SMBIOS by one supported in Sierra. Also your CPU must have SSE4 instructions.

[hershebmx]

Hello pernacabeluda, I could make the installation of OS X thanks to your advice, change definition of SMBIOS and I could install. Now the problem is that I can only boot with USB memory and I always have to start with nv_disable = 1 so I do not have graphics acceleration. Something curious happens, I do not know which bootloader to install, install clover and surprise !, when I restart and mount the EFI partition with clover configurator, there is no EFI partition. When I try to boot from the OS X partition a prohibited symbol appears. How I can solve these problems ?.

Correction, my graphics is NVIDIA GeForce GT 610.

EFI partition only exists if you use GPT.

About the prohibited symbol, boot in verbose mode to find the cause.

Hi,

great work with the installer it boots up fine, but how can i get past this screen?

 

My System:

Alienware Alpha Core i3 / 4 + 4 Gb Ram / Nvidia 860m

[artur-pt]

hello

try to use OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi

in clover drivers64UEFI folder

good hack

[hershebmx]

About the prohibited symbol, reads as follows:

The version of Mac OS not supported on This platform reason: mac f227bec8

About Nividia graphic, I've read that many people have same problem, I have to wait for some solution.

About GPT partition, my disk is formatted as GPT, should create the EFI partition, but when I load the partition with clover configurator finds there, but when I want to open the config.plist, ask reload the EFI partition.

In other OS X versions, I had never been that.

If you can't replace OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi as Artur suggested, try legacy boot (without "UEFI" before USB stick name, or disable UEFI boot in BIOS).

Change SMBIOS by a supported one, like you did for installing.

No idea about EFI problem, should be OS independent. Did you check "install in ESP" in Clover installation?

[hershebmx]

Yes, I check install in ESP in clover installation.

[pernacabeluda]

Maybe it's a Clover Configurator problem. Can you see config.plist in Finder?

You can try this

i replaced it with OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi still got the same error, then i tried booting it up with legacy mode, didnt get any error except +++++++++ and it restarts...

If your CPU is Haswell enable Kernel PM Patch

[naeemnur]
