System Configuration:
Model - Dell Optiplex 990.
Processor - i5
RAM - 4GB
Graphics - Internal. ( I have a GeForce 210, but didn't install that in the machine yet )

I tried this official guide https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...ported-intel-based-pc.200564/#create_unibeast and also this guide generated by a user https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/success-dell-optiplex-990-mt-10-9-2.131595/

I created the USB using UniBeast and followed all the steps, and I am happy that the Apple logo appeared and the progress bar is moving, but it stopped at the middle and not moving further, I tried editing the Clover and add the parameter -v for verbose, and it gives so much text but I couldn't figure out, what cause the error.

What could be possibily wrong, what steps needs to take, any ideas guys?! Thanks in advance.

PS: New to the forum, if posted on wrong section, move to the appropirate section

@laranz, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard, CPU and Graphics Card.
If you have a prebuilt computer enter make and model instead of motherboard (Mobo).
The Rules said:
Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.
Boot your system in Verbose Mode and post a picture of your screen when it freezes/hangs.
At Clover Boot Screen press space bar and select Verbose (-v)
 
Hi,

Thanks for the reply. :)

Sorry, my primary system is iMac late 2012, and this Optiplex 990 is my secondary system I recently bought. What should I enter in to that boxes?

For the verbose mode screenshot I attach you the file, http://take.ms/WydYD and http://take.ms/3XRTrS and http://take.ms/mi9Xw

Hi,

I thought, the internal graphics card is not support? I have a spare GeForce 210, should I try installing that card and try installing OS?

Any thoughts?

There is no requirement to host your images on third party sites - You may attach them to your posts here.

Correct, Intel HD Graphics 2000 are not supported.
Use the GeForce 210 (Requires MultiBeast > Customize > Graphics Configuration > Inject NVIDIA)
