Installing on a Dell Precision T3620 Xeon e3-1225 v5 (c236)

Used Unibeast to create installer. Had a weird issue where "debug" mode was enabled on clover so clover boot was extremely slow. Disabled that but the results are the same whether clover "debug" option is on or off.

All virtualization options turned off in BIOS. Secure boot turned off also.


Installer verbose starts but freezes when it starts populating the copyright information "The regents" as seen below:

Any thoughts?

Thanks. I uploaded directly
 
Any thoughts? Something I might be missing or need to do after creating the installer?

Try at Clover Boot Screen to select Options > PCI devices > USB Ownership and USB Injection

For permanent solution check Inject USB + FixOwnership in Clover's config.plist
Code:
  <key>USB</key>
        <dict>
            <key>FixOwnership</key>
            <true/>
            <key>Inject</key>
            <true/>
        </dict>

Thanks. I will try when I get home today.
 
So I was able to get past the copyright line.. but after loading intel NIC, the computer hangs for a minute, I can see “still waiting for root device” at the bottom, but there’s garbled text and a circle with slash in it showing on my screen. Obviously it can’t communicate with the USB drive at that point so I tried all ports on the tower, tried a 3.0 usb drive, and a 2.0 usb drive and still no luck.

Any thoughts on getting this installer to load and getting the sub drive recognizes after the usb and NIC lines are shown in verbose?
 
Try this in Clover/Kexts/Other folder where you should also have FakeSMCkext. This is a temporary USB fix a better choice later is usbIjnjectallkext and following guide for port assignments and making a SSDT.

Also check your clover ACPI folder the debug may have loaded that up delete any files you find there.
