First, here's the hardware I'm working with (it's in my build profile also, but I'll put it here for convenience):
I do have a couple of theories about what may have caused this failure:
- Motherboard: ASRock Z270M Pro4
- CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K
- GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060
- Boot SSD: WD Black 256GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD
- Secondary SSD (mounted as /Users): Crucial CT960M 500GB SATA SSD
- updated to the latest Clover (r4243);
- put FakeSMC.kext in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other;
- put apfs.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI;
- ran Install macOS High Sierra.app, which I downloaded from the App Store, choosing my M.2 NVMe boot SSD;
- chose the Boot macOS Install option in Clover after it rebooted;
I do have a couple of theories about what may have caused this failure:
- I didn't put the HackrNVMeFamily kext in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other, since I've seen it mentioned in several places that you should only put FakeSMC.kext there for purposes of upgrading to High Sierra.
- It's an Nvidia graphics driver problem.
