I was just curious as to why I can't erase my APFS drive? I had to partition it.... but in my BIOS it is still only showing as one drive... I just want to reinstall and start again but if I can't erase my SSSD then it seems impossible. Ill say again, Terminal isn't helping me either. Thanks for...

I've only gone solved it and I'm in.... The question now is, how do I boot it independently without my thumb drive? the Clover files I thought I put on, was sure in fact I put on there don't appear to be. Can I just download them again? Will it work if I do it straight my Hackintosh desktop? Or...

Okay, I have done that but now won't go past coding screen after 'Verbose' and Boot MacOS? Should I reset?

Okay great!! That really good to know... Not massively but I guess it's good to be over prepared, right?

Ive come to this conclusion... what do you think? GIGABYTE Z370P D3 - ATX MOTHERBOARD - CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR4 x2 8GB RAM - can't budget 32 will have to add later CORSAIR SPEC 01 MID TOWER - CORSAIR RM650x Power supply - CORSAIR HYDRO H55 - SAMSUNG 850 EVO 250gb SSD - INTEL CORE...
