I successfully installed macOS Sierra on my Hackintosh build (GigaByte Gaming K3, Intel i5-6400, GeForce 1050, 1TB HDD). I wanted to also install Windows 10 on that machine, so I followed a friends advice, and ran Bootcamp to make an install USB and an additional partition on the hard-drive...

I was able to create an El Capitan install drive with UniBeast 6.2. Encouraged by that, I retried making a Sierra install drive, and that succeeded as well (apparently it can take up to half an hour on an old MacBook). Now I'm having trouble convincing the PC that it's a bootable stick, which...

Don't know. On my computer hard drive, in my apartment, from the internet.

Update: I moved the file to `/Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app`, and got past that step.

I downloaded Sierra on my old MacBook (running El Capitan). I'm trying to create an install drive with UniBeast, and it doesn't recognize the downloaded Sierra installer at `/Users/me/Downloads/Install macOS Sierra.app`. What could be the issue? I checked the UniBeast app contents, but...
