[Solved] Unable to Boot to Sierra Installer

[levleviev]

Hi,

I've been trying for the last few days to install Sierra 10.12.16 using a boot disk created by Unibeast, and seem to be stuck.

When I boot and hit F12, I get two options for the USB Stick, one called Mac OS X and the other UEFI.

If I boot to Mac OS X with the clean Unibeast 7.1.1 install, I get "Error allocating 0x4c05 pages at ...."
I tried installing OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi as suggested here. After that the following appears and just hangs:

View media item 189440
If I boot to UEFI with the clean Unibeast install, I get just a string of "+++++++++++" and that hangs. After installing OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi and booting to UEFI, I get the same error as above.

I've tried the following things:
Updating Clover post Unibeast install
Installing OsxAptioFix2Drv and OsxAptioFixDrv (not both at once)
Re-did Unibeast on three different drives
Different USB ports
Booting without kext injections
Resetting Clover options
-x and -s tags

I am able to boot to my regular disk through Clover on the USB.

My system is an Ivy Bridge 2012 Custom Mac Pro:
Gigabyte Intel B75 Dual UEFI mATX Motherboard GA-B75M-D3P
Intel Core i5-3570K Quad-Core Processor 3.4 GHz
32 GB RAM
Sandisk Extreme 120GB SSD Drive
No additional graphics card

Thanks for any suggestions, happy to provide any additional needed info.

@levleviev, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard or Make/Model, CPU and Graphics Card.

Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.

Done! Thanks for the heads up.

Bumping, I'm still stuck with the hanging boot. If anyone has any advice it'd be greatly appreciated!

I am getting hung up also. I am trying to setup my second hackintosh.

This setup is for
HP 8300 Elite i7 SFF
Built in HD4000 graphics
250gb SSD
4GB included with this pc

I have double checked the BIOS settings and have updated to v2.99 then to 3.04

I have loaded with -v to see where the installation hangs and I have posted it below.
I did double check and serial is disabled

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hmmm...I wonder what could possible cause that?
It is not letting me continue. I am stuck at that screen..I have double checked and it is disabled under serial. And there no connectors or anything (no extra peripherals onto the mobo.

Any other clues? I have even reset the BIOS to default and then select the suggested config but still no go

You were going to start a new thread of your own, not hijack another user's.
The Serial port could be a modem or a TPM.
If the actual Serial port is disabled then it is probably of no consequence.

Hey all, just an update on my original post. I did yet another fresh Unibeast install on a different USB drive, and this one worked. Guess I just had a string of duds.
