Maybe you guys can help.

Been running my X79-UD5 very happily on 10.10.5. But the itch to upgrade is getting me.

I am brand new to clover but I am running 2.3k rev 3766

I am hanging here and can't get past it

Appleusbxhci

Not sure how to bypass it or what I need to do to resolve it.

My bootflags are
Dart=0
Nv_disable=1
Npci=0x3000
-v
-f
CPUs=1



Thanks

If my bootflags are
Dart=0
Nv_disable=1
Npci=0x2000
-v

And disable "inject nvidia" and select "enable nvidia web drivers" I get this screen

When this is happening as shown in your uploaded Screen shots, is your USB Installer Flash Disk's LED blinking showing activity or it has stopped working indicating that USB port is not live? If your Keyboard and Mouse are USB, do they show they are active?

What I am getting at is to figure out if your System has lost all its USB 2.0 ports.

I believe they are active, but I don't think I can really tell for sure.

Would this have been something I could have checked/unchecked during the sierra USB install setup (unibeast)
 
Your issue is related with USB.

Let us know the status USB related options on BIOS.

Also post your config.plist file.

I have the legacy option selected in bios as well as USB 3.0, but I'm running them in a 2.0 port

As far as the config Plist file, this is my first time installing a hack with clover, so as far as I know, I don't have a config file yet

I need to know the details of your BIOS settings, such as XHCI, Legacy support, etc..

You have. Check under \EFI\CLOVER\ folder of your bootable USB.

So is this a problem? And I suppose I download clover and run the installer on the same USB 10.12 installer disk? I apoligize for my lack of understanding.

all right I downloaded clover and installed it on my USB.... here is the default settings it loaded.

My hack was the custom hackpro from a few years ago. only difference is that I am using a EVGA GTX760 video card.

it had native support until 10.10.5......which Is why I picked it....


i feel dumb b/c the latest security update screwed my graphics up on my functional 10.10.5 hack....
