Hello,

Excuse me for my english.

I have a problem and i really need some help !?
This is my 3rd Hackintosh, I had it running Mojave 10.14.6, I think. Everything was running fine untill, I wanted to update to Catalina.
So i installed it, followed the instructions on how to update, computer needed to restart some times and installation was finished. Catalina was installed. Then i installed the drivers for my Wireless USB adapter with chris1111's installer and thats where it went wrong. I installed it and restarted then chose Catalina from Clover boot menu and it went into black screen after the bar with the apple logo was about 50%. i tried everything i can but nothing worked for me. That's why i'm asking for some help from you guys.

Thanks!

Hi there.

What is "chris1111's" installer?

What wireless card do you have?

The easiest way to get into your system is to boot using your UniBeast installer USB. Once the Clover menu comes up you should be able to boot Catalina. From here you can remove whatever was installed.

:)
 
Then i installed the drivers for my Wireless USB adapter
Boot with your Wireless USB adapter disconnected and the drivers that you installed should not load.

chris1111 are the alternate drivers for my wireless adapter because tp-link didn't release the drivers for catalina yet.
I have a TP-LINK Archer T4U wireless adapter and it worked before on Mojave 10.14.6.
How do you mean? I can boot into clover menu but when i choose Catalina it gives me blackscreen after apple loading screen.

Also tried that but didn't worked.

What I meant was, boot into Clover using your UniBeast installer USB drive. That way you might avoid running those alternative drivers for your TP-Link USB. However, from what you are saying, perhaps they are installed in the Library/Extensions folder.

If you are familiar with Terminal, as an alternative you can boot into your UniBeast installer USB and when Clover comes up choose "External". This will start the installer, but once the main screen comes up, instead of chosing to install, go to the "Tools" menu and select Terminal. With this you can navigate to the main drive Library/Extensions folder and delete the wireless kexts causing your problem. Obviously you will then need to rebuild your kext caches.

I accidentally formatted my Unibeast backup USB. And my macbook is also broken so i can't create a new one. Do you have any other options? I'm not familiar with Terminal but i can access it from the recovery option in Clover boot screen.
 
Do you have any other options?
Restore your backup.

Or

Boot from the recovery partition and reinstall the OS without formatting the drive.
 
Will it go back to Mojave with all my kext's and current files on my hdd?
I have no idea - You know your backup regime better than I do.
