Hi guys,
I'm having a problem trying to install 10.11.4 on my Acer Aspire ax3900 desktop. I've managed to get to the clover bootloader (after switching from UFEI to legacy in unibeast) but after selecting to boot osx from the USB drive I see the apple logo, followed by the apple logo and a loading bar, then it gets stuck on a grey screen.
I've tried some of the fixes found here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capitan-desktop-support/173991-big-list-solutions-el-capitan-install-problems.html#CategoryFreeze
- i've switched from vga to hdmi on monitor
- i've checked that config.plist in EFI sets Graphics / Inject / Intel to true
I'm using a 16gb USB3 pen drive in USB2 port (have tried several ports), using latest versions of unibeast (6.2.0) and clover (3423). The internal hdd currently has a windows 10 install (clover sees 3 windows partitions, not sure what each of them are or whether this is important).
Specs for the computer can be seen in these images:http://postimg.org/gallery/2z9h7546w/
A video of what shows up when i boot in verbose mode can be seen here:[video=youtube;nK3qW9ayyL0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK3qW9ayyL0[/video]
Its been 4 years since I last attempted a hackintosh install so I'm a bit rusty and am new to clover (I think I used empire efi last time), I hope you guys who are more up to date can spot the issue!
Many thanks,
Matt
