Hey so i Followed this guide to install os x on my surface pro but i get a weird error, every time I boot into the installer the language is spanish or some foreign language I don't understand. At first I thought it was the .app but I downloaded the official apple one on my macbook and it's still showing up spanish. Which isn't a problem but when I finish the install and it reboots my bootable usb doesn't see the Yosemite partition only the installer usb and the windows one?

I'm using the latest clover if it helps.

Thanks.

Ok I read through it but it doesn't say anything about why my install language is spanish i downloaded the install yosemite app from the app store from a legit macbook and tried a different one but both of them are still booting up in spanish.

Maybe the MacBook you downloaded with was using Spanish?

Nope i even downloaded a second copy from an external site. I think it's the files i got for OP the config.plist had language to italian. i set it to english and am going to test it out
 
My guide has no such setting in config.plist.

This is the guide linked from the FAQ, which was linked in post #2.

not your guide the one I posted in the OP. So Mavericks works but Yosemite doesn't, after I install Yosemite and restart it, the partition doesn't appear in clover but if I install mavericks and restart it the partitions there. Is there anyway to install mavericks and the use app store or the .app on my surface to update to Yosemite without having to do a clean install?
