Read post #1 for system update instructions.
Thanks, must have missed that.
I ran into some trouble (see below if necessary), but eventually got the system to boot in safe mode. After logging in it ran "completing installation" and finished successfully. After that, the system would boot, but the graphics were not working properly. I followed the post-install steps in the original post (installing acpi and final config). The system now boots and everything seems to work fine, but I lost my recovery partition somehow. If I boot Clover from USB I can see it. Any idea how to get it back?
Attached is full debug info.
Thanks
===== process to update to high sierra =====
I did the following to update (coming from El Capitan):
1. Followed the "Updates to the patch repositories" instructions
2. Installed Clover_v2.4k_r4444.RM-4652.c1f8602f.zip
3. Copied in the config_HD4000_1366x768.plist keeping my SMBIOS section
4. Started a High Sierra install using "/Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO"
5. The install finished and the system rebooted. When it rebooted my BIOS said the CMOS was corrupt and would be reset.
6. When Clover starts to boot macOS (the installer option is gone) it hangs with the progress bar 100%.
7. Booting in verbose mode shows it repeats an ACPI error (attached). It also occasionally flashes about kextd stall igpu
I've also attached my kexts available in Clover.
I am unsure how to get the proper diagnosis information from my machine to attach since it will not boot, but the CLOVER folder I had before the update is attached in #2631
