Hi all,
First post.
First of all thanks for the forum and for this huge amount of info on hackintoshes.
I´ve been using a succesfully installed Sierra version with Unibeast in my system for years but I had to update finally, some apps like Unreal Engine or Xcode just won´t run on Sierra.
I screwed it up (God knows how) when I tried updating my Clover version from r3xxx to the current r5xxx one. When the system reached UEFI shell it never booted, black screen and nothing. I think is was probably an error installing the kexts.
I couldn´t manage to retrieve my older clover efi install from UEFI-backups through UEFI Shell; colon just proved impossible to type among other things...
Ok, so I decided to start from the beginning and make a fresh install from a Catalina USB.
It took me 5 attempts to make Unibeast create the boot USB. It froze in the creating install bar. I´m using UEFI BIOS and Nvidia Inject btw.
As I used a Macbook pro with latest Catalina version installed I had to use macOs Catalina Patcher to get an installer copy of it.
Ok. BIOS all good and set; UEFI and basic kexts installed and ready to boot.
I´m using a 16GB Toshiba pen.
After a few formats and reinstalling Catalina installer with Unibeast it all went good finally and started the install from the USB
BUT
It gets stuck at the end of the apple logo installing bar. It just stays there for hours.
What am I doing wrong?
I don´t know how to paste here my current EFI setup in the USB without deleting it.
Any clues about what´s going on?
Thanks again and take care of yourselves.
