How to Create a macOS Sierra Public Beta Installation USB

[divadkoorc]

your config.plist is a bit of a mess (from a few pages back) did you add in the in the HFSPlus.efi as suggested? also have you setup your bios correctly ?

Hi i don't understand how my config.plist could be a mess, all i have done is follow the tutorial i haven't touched it in any way, as for the HFSPlus.efi where would i get that from and where do i place it? yes my bios is configured correctly also.

MacPro3,1

That's your problem right there - MacPro3,1 does not meet the minimum spec to install macOS Sierra.
Try changing to an iMac14,2.

Does this just update my OS (keeping my apps, settings, etc..) or remove everything?
Also can I do it directly from Yosemite 10.10.1 or do I have to update to El Capitan first?

It depends how you install. If you run from the app using clover then everything will be still as normal when the upgrade is done. But if you reinstall with 10.12 then you're apps etc will be erased.

Got any ideas of boot flags he should try?

Which version of Clover are you running?

how? i only followed the tuto?

HFSPlus.efi isn't in Drivers64UEFI. You can download it from here HFSPlus.efi. Replace VBoxHFS.efi with HFSPlus.efi.

Hello! Im trying to install 10.12 GM, but I can't see my HDD. I see only the USB installer option. Tried to restart, but it's not showing. The same on Disk Utility. I used Clover 3726. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Great guide.

Edit: SOLVED. My bios was in IDE mode by default. Changed it to AHCI.

Thank you - just updated my recovery USB using these instructions & copied over my working Clover configuration from my system's EFI partition.
