Thanks a lot,

@Feartech on another topic I don't have a good ethernet connection. Is there anyway to do it offline? Like download it beforehand and install it right from USB drive?

Hello all,
tried opencore according to guides (0.61 package) and get stuck right after selecting opencore with attached screenshot. EFI is attached.

It's a Clevo P750tm1 gaming notebook, Coffee Lake 9700k processor and somewhat a desktop/notebook hybrid. MoBo is a z370 base. I had sucessfully Mojave installed with Clover and unibeast 9.3.0, but could not get onboard graphics (Iris 630) working. So I tried Opencore bbut got stuck here.

Any suggestion?

Well, I thought I was well beyond this step. I have created my specific SSDT's with SSDTTime, and adapted my config.plist according to the guide for coffee lake with ProperTree, also used the mimum kexts required. I have read also the laptop specifics and this is not my first installation. I have reviewed the faq's again...it seems my problem must be a very basic one, but I don't see it.
