Update Directly to macOS High Sierra

[karacho]

Hi,
update via Update Directly to macOS High Sierra (APFS) , everything seem fine but it didn't uprage to APFS and I am staing on HFS+.
Any ideas why?

Thanks for the guide Tony enyway!!!!!

You can boot into the recovery partition and convert your drive to APFS. Before, copy apfs.efi to efi-clover-drivers64UEFI, otherwise you're not able to boot your new converted drive.

You need apfs.efi in efi-clover-kexts-others to boot an apfs formatted drive.

Oh thx , i will try ;D

I make a mistake. apfs.efi must be in efi-clover-drivers64UEFI. Sorry

This is the SSD APFS with High Sierra

The yellow square is this SSD , like it was an error and won't boot , could be a clover incompatibility ?

Before getting to the Clover screen it is showing me some text about apfs.efi and in Clover itself it does not show me anymore the Apple drive graphics like it does with my windows partition. Also its called there internal hfs but its apfs actually...

Anybody can help??? Before all updates were smooth No much this time

I had the same issue but there are comments suggesting you drop MATS tables in clover (I have an older motherboard). This worked a champ for my situation and install went through! Worth a try

Do it in the Clover Configurator OR

Just put this manually in config.plist

<key>DropTables</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>Signature</key>
<string>MATS</string>
</dict>
</array>

Anyone able to get the AMD R9 390 8gb working in High Sierra?
I have tried this method but it is not working for me. It did work flawlessly on Sierra though.
All I have is a black screen now. Once I connect the cable back to the IGP HDMI I have a picture again.
However, the strange thing is, that it is showing up just fine in the System Report.

Actually it's not showing up "just fine" 8xxx points to a not properly identified framebuffer and possibly not using HW acc.
Have you tried identifying which framebuffer matches your card and injecting that via Clover?

Damn, I thought it was fixed but I'm getting nasty graphics artifacts again from time to time. Usually after reboot it works for a while and then suddenly it's starting again. Anyone else having this and a possible solution? I first used the native OS X drivers, now the nVidia web, same problem.
