[Solved] Can't get bios to recognize UniBeast equipped USB pen drive as boot drive

[AJMan]

Spent the last couple of weeks purchasing what I thought would be quite compatible hardware:

Gigabyte - GA-Z170M-D3H MicroAtx
i5 6400
Radeon Rx 460 GPU (currently sitting in its box- figured this would keep things simpler to start)

I'm using a Kingston USB3 16 GB disk to create the UniBeast recovery disk for Sierra.

I created the boot disk without an issue in UniBeast.
The Bios recognizes the Kingston disk when I hit F12 to enter bios and select that as my bootdisk.
When I elect to start the Kingston disk the system apparently doesn't find anything useful on the pen drive and boots into Ubuntu - which I'm planning to overwrite on the SATA disk.

I followed this page: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/computer-wont-recognize-unibeast-usb-installer-drive.94309/
- kept GPU out of system
- removed all unneeded PCI cards except for a wifi card
And I followed the bios configuration outlined on this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...i7-skylake-32gb-ram-imac-17-1-success.198295/

I'm stuck. Any help?

Thanks a million!

Ok - here's how I dealt with this issue...
i took the sata drive that was running ubuntu and where I intend to install MacOS and put it into an external enclosure. I connected this to my mac. HFS formatted it and ran multibeast to deploy clover v2.4k r4063 UEFI boot loader on it. I would have tried to run all of unibeast against this drive but unibeast didn't recognize this 1tb drive as a removable drive.
