I was a very grateful beneficiary of your High Sierra build and have tried to follow in your footsteps with Mojave and Catalina. My Mojave was working OK at first but seems to be degrading -- I haven't been able to use Preview, and I've had some odd shutdown problems. My attempt to upgrade to...

To add to my previous post, I'm still not able to get past the black screen on Catalina install. I first tried to download Catalina from app store directly onto the computer, with conventional installation. When that didn't work, I tried to install from flash drive with Unibeast, but ran into...

I wonder if @HackaShaq or another follower of this thread could post a working Clover EFI folder for Catalina? I just completed the Mojave update, but am running into the black screen issue as I attempt to update to Catalina. I thought I had followed Hack's instructions for a fix...

Thanks so much for these thoughtful suggestions. It wasn't helping that I rather idiotically didn't notice a tiny Sandisk thumbdrive that was in one of my USB ports. After removing that, I successfully installed Mojave using a thumbdrive with Unibeast and Multibeast. I still haven't figured...

Thanks, I have tried booting from 2 external drives (one is an SSD, the other a Seagate external), but neither of them are booting for some reason. I though all the changes I was making were going onto the Seagate, not my OS SSD or other other backup SSD). I'm going try with a USB thumbdrive to...

I'm attempting the Mojave upgrade and something has gone terribly wrong. My PC won't boot - it loops after BIOS in trying to load Clover. I made 2 backup external drives with the previous versions of HS on them, but neither of them will boot either. I tried one of them in an internal slot...

Hi, I'm so grateful to you for this build, which I followed to the letter. Do you have any plans to upgrade your OS from HS? I discovered that Premiere Pro doesn't seem to run very well on HS. And I fear that there will be other software compatibility issues coming up. If you, the creator of...

I'm having trouble updating Clover. I am using Clover configurator: > Install/Update Clover > Package (radio button) > Check Now > Update > Bootloader > Installation Type (install is to an external guinea pig drive, usb to usb c) > Install (installaiton complete) But when I reboot, Configurator...

I did this build over a year ago and have been happy staying at High Sierra. However, I need to start using Premiere Pro, and I've discovered that I finally need to upgrade, probably to Catalina. Has anyone done this process? I've tried to update to Mojave as a first step, starting on a...

My computer crashes fairly frequently -- almost always when it's running on it's own, left unattended. I'm running High Sierra, but also have Parallels (installed on the same boot disc as OSX) and have a Mac data disc. When the system crashes, it leaves a messages about the Mac data disc...

All well with my attempt at this build, which is lucky given my lack of technical chops. I'm just noticing that I'm only getting about half of the expected audio volume on High Sierra (I'm on max volume in sound preferences and on my speaker, but only getting low actual sound output on...

Hi. Is there a guide here that explains how to install High Sierra and Win 10 on separate SSDs, and then use Parallels to run both OSs simultaneously? I'm a bit daft - I'm assuming that basic dual boot just gives you the option of booting either one or the other, but not both at the same time...

PS I redid Bios settings, double confirmed, and had same error on UniBeast install attempt. I am also downloading the "combo update" of 10.13.5 to see if that may solve the issue.

Hi, the HS is the current version in the app store, 10.13.6. I'm reviewing the BIOS settings and found that for some reason the settings selections (taken directly from this Golden Build) didn't seem to hold between boots. I'm trying again before trying your trouble shooting recommendations.

Hi, thanks so much. So I changed my BIOs settings successfully, but now I'm trying High Sierra install with UniBeast. The HS install program starts to run, but part of the way through I get the slash through a circle dead end error. I created the install USB from a 2015 model MacBook Pro...
