Hello everybody !

Need your help. Since last week I finally decided to update my hackintosh on macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 (I was on Sierra).
All is running perfectly, only have some issues with my Nvidia 750 Ti but found the solution.

I have convert my SSD boot drive to APFS, no issue too. But ...
Now Clover stop on the boot screen and no more boot automatically.

I already try to change the boot option in Clover and give my boot drive name. (And time to 0)
But it's change nothing. Any idea ?

Just add a precision if it can help you for an answer ! Have 2 boot choice on the Clover boot screen : "Boot Microsoft EFI Boot from EFI" (But I don't have this drive anymore, and if I remember I remove it from the clover boot list) and "Boot macOS from MacOS" who is my boot drive.

Thank's !!!
 
post your clover config and the output of "diskutil list" command

Hey thank's for your answer ! Since I post this topic I update to 10.13.5 ! No issues, but still the same pb.
Now I have 2 more entry on the Clover boot Screen :

Boot Microsoft EFI Boot from EFI
Boot FileVault Prebooter from Preboot
Boot MacOS Install Prebooter from Preboot
Boot MacOS from MacOS

Just below, the diskutil list output !
