Hello guys!,

i am pretty much new to this whole scene, and am having a little trouble. I followed the steps for setting up unibeast and ended up at a dead end, i try installing high sierra and my hard disk is not showing!! i can't even delete my hard drive in the disc utility please someone help.

Btw I've tried changing the AHCI, and tried installing clover but it still fails.

thanks in advance,

This is one of the old motherboards that originally had a Legacy BIOS. And there is a beta UEFI BIOS available.

So you need to understand which BIOS version you have to know how to build your Unibeast installer device.

GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 REV: 1. 3.

The "unibeast" is an application used to build an USB macOS installer device. You would then boot to the installer device.

However please use this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ierra-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.235474/ and share the Step number where you are having this problem. You should use the -v boot argument so that you can see where the boot process fails.
