[SOLVED] Screen becomes black in the middle of the boot sequence

[hlehofer]

Hello,

after switching graphics from AMD to Nvidia, I decided to make a clean new install (Sierra 10.12.3) on a new SSD.
I followed the 'official' guide, everything went fine (besides one issue for which I'll create a separate thread) until the first reboot (after Multibeast was used and the Nvidia web drivers were installed).
The boot process starts normally, the bootloader and than the normal boot screen with the white progress bar is shown. After a few seconds, when the progress bar reaches roughly the middle, the screen goes black. Then the fans of the graphics card are heard for a short moment. And nothing else happens. The screen just stays black.

Using 'nv_disable=1' at boot works. In system information I can see that card is recognized. Also the Nvidia driver is available in menu bar.

Graphics card: GeForce 980 Ti (Palit), connected via HDMI
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77P-D3
System definition: iMac 14,2 (Multibeast default setting)

Any idea what I can do to use the correct driver?

Fixed
The problem was that 'inject Nvidia' was still set in config.plist.
