I have followed all the steps in the installation guide but nothing is working. I tried booting using verbose but all I get is Service exited with abnormal code: 1 after a bunch of architecture not recognized. I had working High Sierra using clover before and I am able to reclone it but I want a clean install. Any help would be much appreciated. My board is gigabyte 100 series.
 
@iSA08, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard or Make/Model, CPU and Graphics Card.

Holy ****. I don’t know why this isn’t in the Installation Guide but this problem seems new to High Sierra version of UniBeast. If you encounter this problem go to clover boot options, then graphics config and uncheck inject nvidia: fake id: 0x0000000. This is new to high sierra because I didn’t have to do this in El Capitan.

you only use inject Nvidia for older nvidia cards on desktops :)

Yeah thanks. I didn’t know that before I stumbled onto a thread. The problem in the High Sierra version of UniBeast is that option is selected by default so you wouldn’t know it until you google haplessly.
 
Any idea how I can change the defaults?

you can mount your efi and then open up config.plist - use xcode to edit or PlistEditPro and then make changes, save, exit and reboot :)
