Hey all, I finally tried installing El Capitan on my old/trusty 10.8.4 setup.
I have a GA-z68x-UD4-b3 motherboard, XFX 6870 video card... using a Sonnet NIC (Yukon), and a USB sound card.
USB stick booted with no problems. I was very surprised the AMD Radeon 6870 video card worked OOB.
Successfully installed 10.11.5 on this setup. Got sound, internet, etc.
I followed the Multibeast post install instructions using Clover Legacy. And this is where I'm stucked!
No matter what I do, I cannot boot Clover from this 1TB Seagate Hard drive. There is an EFI partition on the HD. but no go.... computer just sits there with a blank screen "Loading operating system...." message. But it seems the bootloader on the hard drive isn't successfully being executed. (Have pressed F12, selected the HD as the boot device, etc... just no go.)
Why? This mobo booted the USB stick just fine?
I must be missing a step.... I tried the alternate install pkg using first Clover Legacy, then CloverLegacy-Root and both doesn't work either.
If someone can help with this last step, I'll be very grateful!
