hello, first of all thanks for your work and your availability.
I've got a little problem during installation of Hackintosh.
I've installed and configured hackintosh without problems on a 64 gb ssd, but for reasons of space, I want to install it on a WD green 1.5 tb SATA 3 hard drive (I know it will be slower but it does not matter).
But if I try to erase and partition but disk utility says that it's unable to umount the disk with an error.
I've also tried with G-Parted to format my hard drive in HFS+, but nothing.
Disk utility seems also that don't see my hard drive and hard drive's partition

My bios config:
-Sata changed to AHCI
-Max CPUID value limit - DISABLE
-CPU TM FUNCTION - DISABLE
-Suspend Mode - S3
-Repost Video on S3 - YES
-ACPI 2 Support - YES
-ACPI support - Enabled
Boot from clover with npci=0x3000
My build:
->Asus P5QC - 8 gb DDR2
->Xeon X5460
->Gtx 750ti

The Rules said:
Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.
Please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard (Mobo), CPU and Graphics Card.
If you have multiple systems add them to your signature or build signature.

Certain SATA controllers have issues with AppleAHCIPort v329 (eg ICH10, 5 series, 7 series, ASMedia 1061)
Disks may fail to initialize, not readable or hot plug may fail.

Thanks for reply.

SOLVED thanks to this post: USB Installer doesn't recognize internal HDDs . I've only edited config.plist of USB-installer

Edit: after macos installation at the boot up I've the block symbol (tomorrow i'll run it in - v mode and i'll report my error)
Edit2: photo attached

EDIT 3: SOLVED. (need to disable SIP)

Boot your macOS partition using USB-installer

Take AppleAHCIPort.kext

Install in /Library/Extensions (so doesn't get over-written during updates) repair permissions, rebuild caches eg

sudo chown -R 0:0 /Library/Extensions/AppleAHCIPort.kext && sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions/AppleAHCIPort.kext

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

Test kext is loadable...

sudo kextutil -tn /Library/Extensions/AppleAHCIPort.kext

Confirm kext is loaded after rebooting the system...

kextstat | grep AHCIPort
