So after I upgraded to the latest PB7, set SMBIOS to MBP 11,1, removed FakePCIID_*.kext from Clover and added a few drop tables to CLOVER (all copied from the drop tables for Sierra), iTunes doesn't seem to crash anymore (or at least it hasn't crashed yet). I've also discovered that before I added the drop tables, the power management wasn't functioning properly; i.e., I had only 2 options in the Energy Saver for Battery && Power Adapter in SysPref. After I added the drop tables, not only do now I have 4 options for Power Adapter and 3 for Battery in Energy Saver (I don't know how many I'm supposed to have but that's how many I got in Sierra), but the CPU freq now drops to as low as 0.9GHz, without me installing X86PlatformPluginInjector.kext to Clover or L/E (or S/L/E). Also unlike in Sierra Activity Monitor doesn't crash anymore at tab Energy.

The new config/output files have been uploaded in case you need it.

Yep too early... After I "sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /" it started crashing again...

It seems that the pattern is everytime I enter the following commands and reboot, iTunes works fine, and then if I reboot again it starts crashing.
```
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
```

Your kextcache output proves that kexts are not installed correctly.
See guide post #2:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

You have a very complex (probably many files unnecessary) hotpatch setup. Did you create it?

I didn't create it. The configuration files are based on a darkhandz' GitHub repo.

I attempted to move FakePCCID to S/L/E and strangely it didn't load. I had to put it into kexts/other. The output now looks like this:

It is overly complex and kind of a mess.
Consider static patching using my guide until you understand what you're doing and can create a proper hotpatch.

If you have an issue, you must provide full "Problem Reporting" files.
