Thanks for all the help guys! Unfortunately, the stuff y'all suggested did not help. Gigamaxx, I tried both boot arguments you suggested, neither made any difference. cmn699, I did not try the full set of instructions you provided, but I did change my Default Boot Volume to the partition UUID...

Well, I've tried going both ways. I've tried on one Sierra install with only the UEFI quick start, thinking that maybe all the other stuff I was installing might be the cause of my problem, and I've tried on a separate Sierra install with a bunch of Multibeast installations all at once. For my...

I've fixed the images, sorry about that! I edited my original post above to have the upright images. I have another mac I can try booting the SATA drive from. What exactly would I be trying to do? I believe FakeSMC is a part of the quick start UEFI by default, so it should have been installed...

Thanks for your input cmn699. I guess I just thought I was doing something simple wrong, so I didn't know that I'd need such detailed information. I'll try to give a summary of what I've done as thoroughly as possible. I downloaded the most recent Sierra install application from the App Store...

Ok, so I did a reinstall, and I tried doing a few things differently. I followed the same procedure I described in my first post, up until running multibeast. This time, when I ran multibeast, I did more than just the quick start for UEFI. I did the quickstart UEFI, plus 200 series audio, intel...

The config.plist I uploaded is exactly what multibeast created automatically when I used quick start for UEFI installations. When I was attempting to boot into single user mode, I simply enabled -s and any other options Gigamaxx mentioned by hitting the space bar with my Sierra install selected...

Now I am back to my original problem. Exactly the same as before, I end up at the prohibited symbol with "Still waiting for root device" as the last line on the verbose output.

Now when I attempt to boot, it tells me "This version of Mac OS X is not supported on this platform!" I assume this is due to elements of the SMBIOS section in the config.plist file that you provided? What should I try next?

Yes. Yes. Look below for an explanation. Yes, that is the message, no it does not happen right away. When I select my Sierra install from CBM with verbose mode enabled, it scrolls a bunch of log messages, and seems to be doing early boot process stuff, but then after a second or two it stops...

I understand what Gigamaxx was telling me to do. The issue is that I cannot do it. How do I run fsck when I am unable to boot into single user mode?

Thanks for your reply Gigamaxx. Unfortunately, the exact same problem occurs even with all of the options you specified enabled. I never get to the command prompt. I still see the prohibited symbol and the text "Still waiting for root device." This is all after unplugged the USB drive and...

What's odd is that the issue also occurs now when I boot to the Clover bootloader on the flash drive, and then boot the Sierra OS on the internal SATA drive from there. This worked fine before I did the quick start installs in multibeast. So, previously it would boot fine going Clover on USB ->...

I do not think that the flash drive should have anything to do with it at this point. I am not utilizing the flash drive at all in the final step that is causing the "still waiting for root device" issue. I am booting to the Clover bootloader located on my internal SATA drive, and then...

Hi, I am trying to install Sierra on my recently built PC, and I'm running into problems. So far, this is what I have done: Adjust all BIOS settings to the recommended settings, except SATA mode, which I keep as Intel Rapid Storage Technology since I have a RAID array configured. Regardless...
