Hi,

I have an older system which I used to have a perfectly functioning install of Mavericks on (as well as dual booting with Windows 10).

Some time back my graphics card died and I thew in a GTX 560 Ti.

At that point Mavericks didn’t boot anymore, but I was busy and decided to just keep using Windows 10 only.

I recently came back to it with the idea of installing High Sierra.
To make things simple, I installed some distributor copy of Yosemite , and got it working just enough to be able to download a copy of the High Sierra installer and create a Unibeast USB installer.

I did that no problems,

However - I can boot to clover, but when I select the USB and try to load the installer, I cannot get past the screen with the Apple logo and progress bar (the progress bar doesn’t go up at all, just hangs at zero progress).

My system is -
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R with an i7
And GTX 560 Ti GPu

Here is a screenshot of -v and where it gets stuck.

I’m glad that worked for you - I do not appear to have that option in my bios...
