10.13.0 failed to install [at the end of boot from the ssd/hdd] resulting in either a message "An error occurred while verifying firmware" or "The path /System/Installation Packages/OSInstall.mpkg appears to be missing or damaged". Some posts state it is due to not disabling SIP, and others suggest it is necessary to change the computer model in your config.plist (use Xcode). In my case, SIP was already 0x67 (disabled) so changing it wasn't an option. My board version was already 14,2. Changed to 14,3, rebooted, and re-started the install from the drive (Boot macOS Install from Macintosh HD) and it finished installing correctly.
