Updated with no problems. I waited for the Nvidia drivers 1st.

Did you change your smbios to 18,3 with a skylake cpu (4,01GHz -> 6700K ?) ?

No I'm still using 17.1

Updated via combo installer without a hitch. I did have to get my sound working again though but aside from that, everything works.

Sorry, wasn't x- is -x. I'm really bad on English, sorry. In safe mode you can enter the OS? Can you upload a picture?

I already noticed that you misplaced the parameter "x-" I tried to enter with the safe mode -x, but still I can not boot, when I enter -x, what happens is that the apple logo bar starts To load and when it has been loading for a few seconds restart the computer, and so it is in a loop, I will try to boot with -x -v so you see the message where it stands still and so see if you can help me on something More, thanks !!

I was able to update without problems, rebooted into 10.12.6 with the fakeid for skylake. Then edit the config.plist to switch to native kaby lake (following advice here), rebooted again, it didn't boot. Now even if I put the old (skylake injecting) config.plist I get:

Mach-O file has bad magic number 0x0
Error Loading kernel cache (0x1)
Boot failed, sleeping for 10 seconds before exiting..

I'm able to mount the hfs+ partition as read-only from Linux and it seems that it is fine.

I've tried, -f -x -s with the same result, any idea?

Edit: boot with my 10.12.5 install USB and chroot + kextcache -update-volume seems to fix it, at least for the old skylake config.plist

Edit2: it seems that the first time it booted but without graphics, so when I hardreset I interrupted the kextcache auto update corrupting the precompiled kernel image. Changing the ig-platform-id to 0x59160000 to and the IntelGFX FakeID to 0x59168086 fixed it. Alienware 13 R3 working as MacBookPro 14,3

I have the same computer as you, KabyLake and all, would you be willing to help me configure my EFI correctly for the 10.12.6 install. I'm about 45 hours in and about to smash this thing into pieces.
