Anyone gotten their hands on a beta of High Sierra and loaded to a Brix Pro 4570/4770 yet? Isnt the final build supposed to come out next week? Instructions available if completed successfully? Planning on wrecking my current box (10.12.6) testing once the final High Sierra build is available otherwise.

SO, I successfully installed High Sierra final. Updated from 10.12.5 -> 10.13. Fresh installed 10.12.5 from a flash drive (testing only; F'd up my system first time around due to stupidity), loaded Multibeast to get audio/NiC working and followed Tony Mac's upgrade guide
here.
**Please note that I am using an SSD as hopefully most people are for their system drives. I followed instructions for APFS as its supposed to be made for SSD. I can confirm my SSD was converted to APFS during the install. Tony's note says Multibeast 9.21 doesn't work with APFS. I am using Multibeast 9.10 which apparently does.
For clarification, I needed to add some of the kexts from my previous post so if you already have them in place, you should just need to follow Tony Mac's guide. Just make sure you have the following prerequisites in place:
1. Downloaded newest clover 2.4K_r4220 from
here and installed. Rebooted.
2. Downloaded EFI Mounter v3 from
here, launched and mounted EFI volume (you'll need this for next couple steps)
3. If files not already there, downloaded FakeSMC, RTL8111, NullCPUPowerManagement from
here, copied to
/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/
4. Used link from Headkaze and downloaded HFSPlus.efi
https://github.com/JrCs/CloverGrowerPro/blob/master/Files/HFSPlus/X64/HFSPlus.efi?raw=true
Copy
HFSPlus.efi to EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI
5. Per Tony Mac, downloaded APFS.efi from
here and also copied to EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI
6. Followed Tony Mac's guide which is basically at this point just downloading High Sierra from App Store, launching, and selecting "Boot from update on Sierra". Watch your system reboot itself a couple times and take 30-40 mins to complete.
Notes: NiC working. HDMI audio working after install until rebooted a couple times, then it disappeared. Found updated script from Toleda
here which also got me headphone and digital audio back. Download and run.
