Hello all,
Long time lurker, infrequent poster. Finally got my act together to upgrade to High Sierra from El Capitan. Bought a new drive to do a clean install. You can add me to the list of people who get no boot device option after the Clover boot. Boots just fine into Clover, but then there is no option for the "Boot OS X Install from Install macOS High Sierra". If I have my other drives plugged in, all of the Windows partitions on the Windows drive show up, the El Capitan partitions shows up on the Mac drive, but the install partition on the USB drive is no where to be found. When I unplug everything, Clover still boots just fine, but there is just no drive listed at all from which to boot.
I had to use the dosdude1's High Sierra patcher in order to download the High Sierra full installer, since the App Store was just giving me the 19MB pseudo installer. Followed all of the steps on the installation page here. Fairly certain my BIOS settings are correct. Havent changed anything since the El Capitan install, and everything mentioned on the install page was correct. Unibeast had no trouble creating the USB installer. I chose UEFI, the 5.2GB High Sierra in the Applications folder, the erased 32GB USB drive, and no graphics options because I'm just using the integrated graphics. Everything went swimmingly until Clover booted up.
Nothing is plugged into the computer except the keyboard, mouse, monitor via DVI, USB stick & unformatted new Crucial SSD. Tried erasing the USB drive and re-downloading the High Sierra installer and using Unibeast again, with the same result.
My setup is:
Gigabyte GA-Z87MX-D3H (BIOS version is F7, the latest)
i7-4770K
Crucial 16GB DDR3 1600 (2x8GB)
Currently running El Capitan on a Crucial SSD so I can at least use the computer (and post my question on this excellent site!)
I wasnt sure which BIOS screens to take pics of, so I took pics of everything (and some needed two pics to get everything). If there's anything else you need pics of, or uploaded, let me know (but pics will have to wait until after work tomorrow at this point).
Any help is greatly appreciated. I was so looking forward to using the new OS. And I'm completely at a loss as to where to start to fix this. Read as many of the other threads as I could find with people having the same problem as me, but didnt come across anything that seemed to be a definitive solution. I did read that some people got it to work by installing 10.13.1 first and then updating, but I have no idea how to access the earlier version of the installer.
