Greetings! It's almost been a decade since I did my last Hackintosh, and due to some development requirements, I'm trying to give it a go again.
This time, it's a Dell XPS 8900 where I have tried both with Unibeast and Clover to install yet face the same issues. I have made appropriate changes to my BIOS as per the many guides, some options are not available in the Dell BIOS, ie CFG Unlock, but I still persist.
I am able to boot into Clover, Erase my 120GB Disk to HFS Journaled, and perform the installation. The installation after 30 seconds stops, heads to a black screen, and then reboots. I then run clover from USB again and choose the newly made hard disk and after approximately 3 minutes, it goes to the Black screen w/Apple Logo and then to the GUI stating that MacOS could not be installed on my computer.
I'm always booting with the -v flag, and for now booting via Vesa not bothering to utilize any of my video cards (Internal and PCIE). I was wondering if someone was able to give me pointers for this system to get it up and running w/ High Sierra.
My Specifications:
I6700K/24GB Ram/120GB SSD MacOS / 500GB NVme (linux) / 500gb SSD (Windows) / 2TB Platter (Data)
In following posts I will upload my EFI directory, and also the ia.log that I captured from the install process if that can assist in finding a solution.
Thanks!
