Notes:
- MAKE SURE YOUR CLOVER BUILD CONTAINS
EMULATED NVRAM &APTIOMEMORYFIX
- Tonymacx86 Clover Legacy mode version may work but it is not supported by this guide.
No other Tonymacx86 builds will work because they do not use AptioMemoryfix - I could only get the installer to boot by going into the bios and selecting the UEFI USB device
- Custom Fusion Drives supported but not worth it.
