Clean installation of macOS Mojave on a Seagate SATA 500GB Spindisk was done on this System with GA-Z77X-UP4TH Motherboard and Intel i7-3770S Processor with Integrated Intel HD 4000 as the Graphics. For the installation the 3 disks running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6, Windows 10 64 bit Pro and Ubuntu 18.04 were disconnected.
For USB Installer for Mojave 14.1, a 16GB USB 2.0 Lexar Flash drive was used. It was partitioned and formatted in the Disk Utility of macOS High Sierra in this computer and launching its terminal "CreateInstallMedia" command was run to create the Mojave 14.1 Installer.
Clover EFI from RehabMan Bucket was downloaded and run on the Installed USB's EFI Partition.
The EFI partition was then opened using Clover Configurator Global and its contents were checked and edited. Config.plist was edited with CCG .
Screen captures of EFI_CLOVER-config.plist are uploaded for the benefit of those who may want to install Mojave in the same hardware or hardware closer to this.
After disconnecting the other System Hard disks and removing PCIE ATI Radeon 5450 Graphics card , the Monitor was connected to the HDMI port of Integrated Intel Hd4000.
On reboot entered the BIOS Setup and configured the BIOS as shown in the uploaded BIOS screen capture images. These images were originally saved to the EFI partition of the Mojave Installer using F-12 key of GA-Z77X-UP4Th at the BIOS setup screen.
Booted the Mojave UEFI USB Installer as First Boot Device and selected that once again at the F-12 Boot Device Selection Screen to enter the Clover Boot Manager Screen.
Screen Shots were made of CBM screen showing the icons, the Options,>Boot Args and sub-menu screen images were photographed to be uploaded .
Mojave UEFI USB installer was launched in Verbose Mode from CBM screen and screen images were made of all 'land mark' screens showing normal progress toward macOS Utilities>Disk Utility Screen
In DU screen, the View menu was clicked and "Show All devices" option selected with a √
The target HDD was partitioned in GUID and formatted in HFS+J
Returning to macOS Utilities screen, Install macOS was launched
All images are uploaded from DU to completed installation
Since I have made the USB installer specifically for this system its EFI had all the needed configurations. Therefore I mounted the EFI of both the USB installer and the new Systems disk and copied the EFI folder and pasted it on the System disk's EFI partition discarding its EFI folder.
After reboot and login the About ThisMac Overview and System Report screens were checked to make sure all kexts are properly loaded. Screen capture images are uploaded.
Video, Audio, Ethernet and Wifi are all working Normally. Preview's JPG problem has been fixed.
Because of the 100 image limit of the Forum rule. No more images will be uploaded.
