Updated to latest Clover and installed from App store. No problems!
 
Will UniBeast and MultiBeast for Mojave be available?

Clover is very complicated for me :(
 
Just updated from macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 from App Store. I had a problem with my driver NVIDIA WEB DRIVER that it isn´t working and with my WIFI DRIVER that it isn´t working too. I am using a default video driver.
 
Installed successfully although there's a little bit of lag when selecting items on desktop. Everything works like a charm.
Did you find a way to have the NVIDIA drivers going, if so, mind to share how?
 
I'm eager to hear reports from anyone who's installed Mojave from the Mac App Store on a computer with Sandy Bridge or earlier. Is the installation successful? Did you need any extra configuration?

Me too, brother (or sister?). There's been surprisingly little information on this. I've upgraded my Sandy Bridge machine with a 1070Ti (Metal compatible) card and running an older SMBIOS (12,2 iMac). I'm guessing that at minimum I'd need to update to a 14,2 bios or something else, but I've no idea if that will be enough to get me rolling.

You could use either iMac 13,2 or 14,2 either one should work with Mojave since 2012 or newer iMacs are still supported.

Partial list of Macs that are supported in Mojave:
  • MacBook Air (Mid 2012 or newer)
  • MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 or newer)
  • Mac mini (Late 2012 or newer)
  • iMac (Late 2012 or newer)
 
Plagued with the the dreaded "installer resources not found error", same as Realnealjr1.

Installed:
Clover 4676
System Definition is correct for my hardware (iMac18,3)
Drivers64_UEFI: AptioMemoryFix-64.efi, PartitionDxe-64.efi, and ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi (APFS is working)
300 Series Gigabyte boards need EmuVariableUEFI-64.efi for NVRAM to work!! (NVRAM is working)
USB is patched properly with SSDT & is under 15 port limit (just in case tried to boot with all ports injected patch for 10.14.x)

Tried:
Reformatting external USB-C drive to APFS
Shutting down the machine, waiting, and rebooting
Choosing different startup disk option in installer
Installing from a mojave bootable USB stick installer
CCC version 5.1.5 my main system nVMe drive to another internal nVME drive.
Clean install to 2nd internal nVME drive (APFS).
Mounted "InstallESD.dmg" in macOS Install Data folder. Moved package files to "/Volumes/SSD/System/Installation/Packages/"

Still nothing, same error every time.

This installer just sucks period. Extremely poor engineering. Waste of time!

Greetings and help please.
I have a minimal system, still HDD, intel graphics 530. Was running acceptably under 10.13.6 (never could handle sleep well).
Usually updaters mess up graphics and sound. This is worse that usual.
I ran the installer for 10.14. It updated the HDD to APFS. It may not have exited gracefully because there are still boot partitions (Install and Preboot) visible when Clover launches. (V. 4630).
At boot, stalls in Apple load screen.
Can get through boot into hard drive partition or the Preboot partition by manually setting Graphics Fake ID to 0x12345678.
At that point About this Mac indicates Graphics memory is only 8 MB. Running Multibeast did not solve. Also did not correct missing sound (ALC1150 method).
Only other problem is loss of USB 3.0- solved with the new raise limit patch. All advice appreciated. Graphics and sound.

Edit: Should mention using system definition 17,1
Edit2: Amazing and mysteriously, changing system def to 14,2 fixed the video issue. So remaining problem is audio. have tried various Toledo suggestions but not there yet. again - advice welcome
Edit3: Solved. Was not aware of newer Lilu 1.2.7, and added AppleALC.kext to kext (other) folder. Now working.

Thank you for the response - I understand that this may not yet be clear, but are there likely to be instruction set issues running Mojave on an unsupported processor?
 
I thought correcting my time in the BIOS would help and redownloading the installer but nope! My BIOS was showing wrong date and time, not sure if Clover made this out of sync but does anyone know how to change the time in clover? I was reading that the time can cause a lot of these issues that Thecythe and I are experiencing.

I just have a feeling that this error : The installer resources were not found error is something so simple to fix and it right under my nose.

Thanks again to luckyal for some assistance on this.

attached installer log if anyone knows what to look for.
