Can only boot in safe mode from HDD, otherwise DSMOS issue leads to Kernel Panic

[coolbnjmn]

I've been banging my head against this for hours, would love to get any help possible on this issue:

I set up a USB boot disk (64gb USB stick) with the Clover configurator adding FakeSMC as well as the SIP flags:

<key>RtVariables</key>
<dict>
<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
<string>0x3</string>
<key>BooterConfig</key>
<string>0x28</string>
</dict>

I'm however unable to boot my HDD without being in safe mode. Every time I do boot it without safe mode, even with a variety of flags attempted (GraphicsEnabler=Yes/No, PCIRootUID=0/1, etc...) can't get past a kernel panic stemming from what I believe to be these two lines:

Waiting for DSMOS...

DSMOS has arrived.

My hardware specs:
Gigabyte Z170MX-Gaming 5 MOBO
Gigatebyte GeForce GTX 970 Nvidia GPU
Intel i7 6700K 4Ghz CPU
Ballistix 4X16GB DDR4 RAM

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
