Boot verbose, attach photo. Attach EFI/Clover folder as ZIP (omit 'themes' folder).
 
Thank you very much for the detailed instruction. As always I learned a lot from reading what's been posted.

I am having the Kaby Lake version of Swift3 SF314-51 with major specs listed below

■ CPU: Intel Core i5-7200
■ Graphics: Intel HD 620
■ RAM: 8G
■ SSD: 256Gb

I built the installation disk following the instruction. I replaced the config.plist with a Kaby Lake compatible one otherwise, it would not boot into the installation interface.

I was stuck at the install interface since I could not find the main SSD on the disk utility. The only choice I had was the USB device that I use for Clover.

I confirmed that the SATA100_unsupported kext was injected. I also placed HFSplus.efi in related folder. With backup, I formatted my SDD into one partition using FAT32 format. However, none of these worked and my hard drive did not show up as a choice for installing Sierra.

After so many frustrated trials, it would be appreciated if you could provide any hint on this issue.

Thank you!

Off-topic. This guide is for the Skylake model, not Kaby Lake.

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.
