Do like I did in my second comment above. I think it may be a case of trial and error, but if you mess up you can probably do like I did and "save and exit" from the UEFI BIOS setup to fix it. Or else maybe boot Clover from your UniBeast flash drive, then run MultiBeast to reinstall Clover...

Security Update 2018-003 10.13.6 is out now (several months ago), so this morning I tried to update to that and I hit the same problems. I suspect that once the computer boots into "Boot macOS Install", it's unable to mount the system drive. My setup: - Boot volume is a 250GB SSD, formatted as...

I didn't find a solution for installing the update. I wonder if the problem might be because I recently changed around my volumes - I originally had everything on a 2TB hard drive, but I wanted some extra speed, so I installed a 256GB SSD and moved (SuperDuper!) the OS and applications to it...

Answer: Installing Clover to the drive seems to have made it bootable. I guess the Clover installer does something more than just putting the boot files into the EFI partition.

I'm trying to install "Security Update 2018-002 10.13.6" on an old P7P55D-E PRO system that's already running 10.13.6 with no problems. I start the installation, it reboots as expected, Clover uses "Boot macOS Install", it brings up the Apple and the boot progress bar, which gets halfway then...

Thank you, @Jamesbond007, you're right. (I'm working on another system right now that's BIOS-only and I got my wires crossed.) For any motherboard, if it uses non-UEFI BIOS, then install Clover in Legacy Mode. If it is UEFI, then install Clover in EFI mode.

How do I make a drive bootable into Clover on a BIOS (non-UEFI) system? I have a very old P7P55D-E PRO system that works with High Sierra on a hard drive (formatted as a GUID Partition Map) with the latest Clover (installed in Legacy Mode, because this is not a UEFI system). I added an SSD...

Just follow the standard installation guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/unibeast-install-macos-high-sierra-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.235474/ Make sure, in UniBeast, that you select Legacy Boot Mode.

Thank you! I decided to go with the older copy of the kext in /L/E so that, if I ever do boot without that Clover patch in place for some reason, my SSD will still work properly.

I have a P55 board which was giving me trouble with an SSD (disk unreadable, and "unable to write to the last block of the device" when I tried reformatting it). I installed the older AppleAHCIPort.kext, and I added the ICH patch via Clover, and that appears to have solved the problem! Thank you...

Does anything helpful show up in the Console app when it crashes?

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?

You could try (temporarily) disconnecting one of your SSDs, see if that gets you any farther. That at least would remove a variable from this. (And it would avoid any confusion about which EFI partition you're booting from.)

The forum rules, including its position on legality, are here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/rules If it's not possible to run Mojave on a computer using a legally-obtained version of macOS along with software provided by this site, then it would probably be best for you to just summarize the...

My build is very close to yours. I have a GA-Z68MX-UD2H-B3 rev. 1.0, an i7 2600K, 16GB RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 970. It runs great under High Sierra. Very easy, no glitches. Everything working as far as I can see. If there's anything I can check on my system for you, let me know. I am using the...
