Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

Although you should read the FAQ for an overview of issues, the Clover guide is linked from the first question: "Q. Where do I start?", just after the bold face "Clover Guide".
Here is a direct link, just to be clear:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

Also, your profile must be filled out with complete details as requested in the FAQ, again under "Q. Where do I start?". All seven details requested are equally important.

And if you have an issue (after following the guide), or on any other problem, you must provide a detailed description of the problem including information that helps us understand what you're doing. Always attach "Problem Reporting" files as per FAQ.

The required files and data are fully detailed in the last question in the FAQ:
"Q. What are typical "Problem Reporting" files?"
 
Any news about this one?
 
Hey, with the help of chr0m1ng we discovered that the odyssey is hackintoshable, but you will need a ssd since we cannot change the HDD options on BIOS. I'm facing some problems with booting time, something about an ACPI error, but after 3 minutes it boots up and almost evrything works, besides audio, wifi(as expected), missing battery indicator, screen color. As far as i know, the battery and boot time problem are related to the ssd(samsung 960 evo) and the APFS format. I'm researching how can i got it all fixed. If you have any questions let me know.
