    Fix/solution for "Selected Mac OS X Installer is incomplete"

    Sanchayan, Thank you, but I'm still trying to follow the logic here to get a Mojave bootable USB from a Hackintosh running El Capitan. If I understand correctly, I start by following post #1. So as that post says, I "Run the 19MB stub installer" (In my case, /Applications/Install macOS...

    Fix/solution for "Selected Mac OS X Installer is incomplete"

    Really obscure process! I do thank you for trying to be helpful, but I can't figure it out yet. Stuck on STEP ONE. Read this entire thread... Post 74, Sanchayan says, "If you follow the directions of the OP, open the macOS install Mojave/Sierra/high sierra.app package in Applications (do so by...

    Won't Boot -hangs at FakePCIID, builder unreachable!

    What can I do at this point? Does the fact that I can't boot from the recovery jump drive suggest any clues? Do I need to reload Clover? MacOS? Any ideas about that fakePCIID? Is my Time Machine drive of any use at this point?

    Won't Boot -hangs at FakePCIID, builder unreachable!

    Tried again with the Sata cable disconnected. Same result. No Boot. I did figure out a way to get pictures onto the Windows side. This is what the screen showed after attempted boots with Safe mode, No cache, No cache and no kexts. This is what the screen showed after attempted boot with safe...

    Won't Boot -hangs at FakePCIID, builder unreachable!

    Didn't try yet with Sata cable disconnected. Am using it to communicate with you on the Windows side. With the cable still connected, neither was successful. Don't know if the last line is relevant, but since I can't take picture and send it to you, here's what it said: 000001,032218...

    Won't Boot -hangs at FakePCIID, builder unreachable!

    Again, I'm grateful for the suggestion. Didn't find how to do it. From the clover screen, if I press space bar, I see Volume size: 237655Mb (check mark)PciRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x17,0x0)\Sata(0x5,0xFFFF,0x0)\HD(2,GPT,0FA2219C-AFAD-46AE-8DE6-0941F4BDEB07,0x64028,0x1D02BA00)\System\Library (the rest is...

    You have no idea how much i appreciate being able to connect with an actual human!! Thank you, Thank you!!! The macOS and the Windows OS are on separate 250 GB SSDs. I did what you suggested and unplugged the SATA cable to the windows drive. NO GO. Before, Clover actually had 5 boot icons (3...

    Sorry, didn't see this until now. Yes, Windows seems to all be working correctly.

    The Mac side of my dual-boot system won't load. Hangs at fakePCIID instruction. Builder is unreachable. Help! In Aug or Sept 2016, a friend built me a beautiful system: CPU: Intel Corei7-6700 @ 3.4 GHz w NH-L9i cooler RAM: 16GB Motherboard:Gigabyte H170N-Wifi Graphics: onboard integrated...

    WiFi & graphics card in mini-ITX build?

    This will be my first computer build ever! My goal is something to run Photoshop and LightRoom quickly and efficiently, processing significant numbers of raw files, while potentially having several other programs open as well, like mail, Chrome and Word. I have no interest in gaming (I know...
