Hi everyone
I'm trying to run os x using bootable USB.
I've tried default configuration and was stucking at "End randomseeed"
After applying config for HD630 (downloaded from github repo from one of guides on this website) loading process stopped to hang on.
Currently, I stuck much later with "Waiting for root device" problem.
If I get it correctly, the problem caused by bad USB port usage. On my laptom there're only USB3 ports available. Also I've tried to use different options like "cpus=1". Anyway, the result is hanging on some point and after 1-2 minutes I see "Waiting for root device".
Any help would be really appreciated

make sure you use a USB2.0 stick, try all ports and make sure to have USBInjectAll.kext in clover/kexts/other

also read up on the laptop guide:
