Hackintosh won't boot (stuck at unmount...)

And press F12, or what ever you need to push to select your start up disk, at the BIOS screen to select the USB as the boot drive.

All right. I reconnected SSD (the internal drive with Mac OS), rebooted holding down F12 and chose the UEFI OS drive:

That got me into Clover:

Then I selected the SSD in Clover, and added -v boot flag again. It's now stopped at a similar place to where it stopped before. The final few lines are:

hfs: mounted USB on device disk1s2
Sound assertion in AppleHDADriver at line 3685
Sound assertion in AppleHDADriver at line 1103
hfs: unmount initiated on Recovery HD on device disk0s3

Ok, I tried again, but instead of booting from SSD I booted from USB... and I got this strange screen again:

It's the same one I was getting before (see first post in this thread).

Okay. This is the only idea I have until you get to your config file. Go into clover boot options. Then Graphics Injector. Make sure inject Intel is checked and if it is checked try deleting the id for now. Not very confident this well help but something to try.

I tried again and went to Clover Boot Options. There is nothing like Graphics Injector on that screen:

the other options like in your first post, the first image you put up

Well, I think that may actually have worked! I went to the Options screen; InjectIntel was already checked, but I deleted the 0x00000000 part:

Then I rebooted a bunch of times and it kept not working, and eventually I told it to boot from my SSD, and it worked! Thank you!

Now, what should I do with my config.plist?

You're welcome, glad you got it working. Did you follow a guide to get it working originally? I would go back to that guide and compare the config files so that you can get it back.

I have no idea what I did in the first place (and I suspect that I messed it up by not following a guide, or half-following several guides).

I'm using a script called EFI Mounter v3 to launch my EFI volume, and it tells me: "Multiple EFI partitions found..." Is that normal? Shouldn't I have an EFI volume on only one drive?
