[RehabMan]

this started when i changed my SMBIOS to 11,1 maybe if i change it back to 11,2 it will load again but it seems that all the config.plist values have been deleted
you can pleas upload photo with the values and the SMBIOS details

For correct config.plist examples, see guide: http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

Thanks for this guide! I was able to overcome the 2 line error and get into the install process. However I have reached a new hiccup: I get through to the end of the install to be told there was an error during the install and to try the process again. I tried to run the install again and get the same error. So I decided to turn off the computer and reboot and now I get the following message:

OsxAptioFix2Drv: starting overrides for .IABootFiles\Boot.efi
Using reloc block: no, hibernate wake: no
Error loading kernel cache (0xe)
Boot failed, sleeping for 10 seconds before exiting

Can't get to the install screen anymore and curious if anyone has any ideas as to what I need to do next.

I tried booting with the after install EFI folder and this error was still returned.

So you can´t boot again from the same install USB that worked before?

For me the Install prcess hang about 20 minutes with a full progress bar before it rebooted automatically.
I would try to make Install USB again in your case and then Install again.

- Did you use a version of EFI made for 4K display?
- Botting with/without and adapter?
- Tried different BIOS settings according to the guide?

I was able to resolve the issue by creating a new install USB.

However my new issue is that after the reboot my computer goes into what I imagine is a kernel panic and has the apple logo with a loading bar flash for a millisecond before the screen goes blank and then has a line or two of the startup text flash on the screen every 10 seconds or so. I've had this happen after 2 different installations and can't find any references to this problem elsewhere.

Did you use the post-install EFI folder?

I did not as I thought I was still able to "boot".However, I am now typing this from OS X on my Dell 7559. Thank you so much for the guide!
