No Disk Available To Install On

[matt123123]

Hi All,

I cannot get past trying to get UniBeast to detect my 8GB USB. It keeps giving me a message that there is:

"No Disk Available To Install On
UniBeast installation requires a HFS-Partitioned removable disk with at least 7 GB free."

I've formatted it using the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with Scheme set as GUID Partition Map. For some reason it works when I change the Scheme to Master Boot Record and Apple Boot Record but then stops when I get to picking Sierra.

Please any help here guys/gals are appreciated.

Make sure in disk utility you're clicking on the master USB, and not a partition of the USB.

Same issue for me. I've tried Unibeast 7.01 and 6.20 and get the same "UniBeast installation requires a HFS-partitioned removable disk with at least 7 GB free." I am absolutely certain I have TWO different HFS+/GUID USB volumes that Unibeast should find. Running Sierra 12.2 on the mac I'm trying to do the install on.

And I'm using a 120GB external SSD based USB drive, so it's not the capacity issue that the previous poster saw. I also have an external HDD mounted via USB and Unibeast(s) don't see it.

Thanks! I was working my way through those points, hadn't hit 16 yet. Looks like it's good now.

For someone just starting out with the Sierra guide, or ANY guide for that matter, it was quite a wake up call that Things Are Not As You Expect They Will Be.
