Hi team!
Doing a new build for "the ball & chain" - here's a list of hardware:
i9-9900k
Z390 Aorus Pro WiFi
Sapphire Pulse RX580-8GB
G.Skill TridentZ Neo DDR4-3600 - 32GB (16x2)
Samsung 970 Pro NVM3 M.2 - 512GB
Corsair h100i RGB Platinum cooler
Built Unibeast install key with 10.14.6 (latest). Set all the usual/customary UEFI/BIOS settings per guide. Got all the way to the point where I was trying to do post-install MultiBeast tasks, and the system started randomly rebooting for no apparent reason.
Thinking it was a corrupt install, I started over several times. Reformatted the drive (erasing what was probably a good install), even rebuilding a different Unibeast key. Reboots continued no matter what I tried. Come to find out, it was a defective power supply!! Had an extra PS leftover from a retired build, so swapped that out & no more reboots! Just to be sure, I installed Windows on a spare SSD, and it's rock-solid - again, no reboots.
So I go back to my original Unibeast USB key where I *almost* got a good build, but no matter what I try, I cannot get this install over the finish line!! I get to this point (no progress bar), and then system reboots itself:
I'm open to thoughts & suggestions on what to do next. I'll also continue to research here... but appreciate the wisdom of "the collective" - THANKS!!

PS...sorry I've been AWOL for so long. Big changes in day-job (new position/new company), plus issues with aging parents (sigh). HOPEFULLY back now for the long haul!
