I followed this guide, which I must say is a fantastic resource, and built a Hackintosh for my wife. She loves it and it's been running and stable since November. She went to get on this morning after shutting it down on Friday last week and it won't boot. Gives her the booting screen and just spins. At one point it showed the installer screen and looked as if it did an install of something. I had turned off the auto-update function on it, but I have to wonder if it updated to the latest Mojave. I'm trying to get into it using a clover USB installer, but cannot get to the file system no matter what I've tried yet.

So I did some digging with the clover USB installer to see if I can get the verbose flag working, as I had setup the machine to just auto boot to the main OS drive. The attached is what I'm getting back from that. Any ideas on how I can get this machine to boot back up? I even tried to run the MacOS installer from the USB drive and it won't even load that :-/

Disregard all of this...I now see what's is actually coming back from my verbose flag. It's saying `busy timeout[0], (60s): 'AppleACPICPU'`. Going to do some more research, but if anyone has an idea of what that could be caused by, that'd be great.

That is why I have a bootable clone

Try to boot from a flash drive.

1. Take any flash drive and format it;
2. Mount EFI partition of this flash drive;
3. Copy this EFI folder to EFI partition of your flash drive https://d.pr/f/kAWLMu
4. Start your wife's Hack and hold F12;
5. Choice a flash drive;
6. Now you should see Clover GUI, find your disk there and try to boot to macOS.

You are a literal lifesaver! That did exactly what I needed thanks soooooo much! And lesson learned haha! I'll plan on making a bootable clone!

overall I can't say that the 10.14.4 update was good to me. I get random boot fails. The jpeg problem needed extra kext. and overall the os is less stable.
