Direct Update to macOS Sierra using Clover

[jelenam]

I updated to Sierra without any issue. Only I needed to update / install audio driver.

which one i should copy the kexts from to EFI/clover/kexts/other..
L/E or S/L/E ? .. also there's no "Without Cache" option on my clover ( 4200 ) , i'm try to update from yosemite 10.10.5, but at my first try , seems got kernel panic and always restart at Apple logo after success install the Sierra.. now i revert it back using my time machine, and try to figure out why my update is failed

I had kernel panic and no way to stop reboot on panic in options at boot time (option was unticked but still rebooting after panic).
I was lucky to take one clear picture, after a few attempts, and figure out it was the VoodooPs2Controller kext (laptop keyboard and mouse).
After testing multiple versions from this website, I had to install the latest version from RehabMan; https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-voodoo-ps2-controller/downloads/
Now Sierra is working fine.
Next step, get the Nvidia mezzanine (shared with Intel graphics) card works (possible?).
Thank you again for your great job. Fantastic to have a working Mac on a 2012 laptop PC.

I'm planning to do this and I'm doing a Carbon Copy Clone of my hard drive first. Do I need to do a copy of the EFI partition as well in case the upgrade fails?

IIRC, the newer versions of CCC do copy the EFI partition. But, I'm not sure. Try it. If it doesn't copy the EFI partition, mount both EFI partitions and copy the /EFI/ from the installation drive to the backup drive's EFI partition. No big deal.

I'm trying to install. When I click restart on the installation program, an extra HD in clover with Macos install doesn't show up.
What to do about that?

I'm trying to do a clean reinstall of macOS Sierra on my already set-up CustoMac. I lost my existing UniBeast flash drive, so do I use this method with a standard Sierra install flash drive or do I make a new UniBeast drive? Thanks!

What does Post #1 say to do?

The App Store isn't showing Sierra for me, so can't download.

The direct link (https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/macos-sierra/id1127487414?mt=12) gives me an error stating:

"Item Not Available
The item you've requested is not currently available in the UK Store."

What do?

AHA!

Apple have removed Sierra from the App Store!
