I've been having all sorts of problems, having fixed one yet introduces another upon each and every fresh install attempt (hard drives not recognised, then stuck on partition map, then missing firmware partition, then circle / slash error, then macOS install failed, then error when updating firmware…).
Unfortunately fixing the latest / last issue (“cannot update firmware error”) now puts me back to another problem - persistent rebooting. That is, persistent rebooting after MacOS high sierra's USB installer progress (which is the first automatic reboot instance). Pictured below is exactly at the point which it is just before self-rebooting persists.
Not sure if it also helps but this is a moment capture last frame of verbose mode before it resets itself.
But it gets even stranger. Using my 3.5" traditional drive (Western Digital) instead of my SSHD (Seagate moments XT, although it's failing) now spews out the last problem I had - "An error occurred while updating firmware". I have never changed nor messed around with the Imac14,2 whatever details included under clover configurator.
As you can see, I've been having problems one after another.
Can anyone help? Losing hair at this point.
Attached is my config plist.
Mainboard: Asrock H77M
GPU: Geforce 1060
8GB RAM
HDD: I've used 2.5s, 3.5s, hybrid SSDs and traditionals. Only APFS seems to allow the installer to continue.
