Direct Update to macOS Sierra using Clover

[themick4u]

I'm using the latest clover and I cannot find the option for without caches? - Please advice.View attachment 211385

You have to hit the spacebar on the clover boot screen

I can confirm I was having the same wait busy kextd errors. I booted with the cache instead of without and now it booted just fine into the installer. Not sure what the difference is but so far its running we shall see if it finishes properly.

This is on my skylake build not X99 just FYI.

This worked for me too on my Skylake build. I did NOT select "boot without caches". I DID select the "inject kexts" option.

Before, I was selecting "without caches" and it hung during the progress bar with the spinning marble.

Thanks!

Hello, let me tell you about my problem.
I follow the guide as look in post.
-I update Clover
-I copy my kexts to Other folder
-I open the official .app Install
-Reboot

The thing is:
When i boot with or without caches, doesn´t matter any flag or argument.
When boot just stay black screen, if boot in verbose just look like this:
*******************************************
That looks the install partition, the hdd partition and recovery.

I tried a lot of flags.

Please Help!!

I had the same problem when selecting "without caches". So, I did exactly what you did and everything worked great. All I needed to do post install was ALC120 for audio.

Logitech mouse is a little flaky, but I am sure Logitech will update the drivers for Sierra.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback- I've edited top post to add Inject Kexts- this is usually default but can be turned off if the user has Inject Kexts NO in their config.plist.

I've got it and also it says its essential to boot so i'm confused that i don't have it and never had any boot issues ?

Because if you had it installed via MultiBeast it was installed to your /Library/Extensions/ folder not the EFI partition.

ok, thanks! I'm a noob to all this! So do i just put the kext i downloaded in the EFI - no config etc?
