I encountered a problem of "busy timeout[0], 240s, kextd wait(0): 'AppleACPUCPU', 'pci8086,154' when I tried to boot the USB installer of macOS Sierra (Release). The EFI folder , IOREG dump and config.plist are attached.

It stucked here for a few minutes,

And later this was shown,

And Eventually this screen is shown and wait forever.

Did you follow the guide?

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.

http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

If you have an issue...

Boot verbose, show photo. Attach EFI/Clover folder as ZIP (omit 'themes' folder).

I followed the guide and it still gives the same error. (Showing launchd exited with exit status 1, after a few minutes, it shown busy timeout[0] appleacpicpu and later the GUI is started but it stucked there forever.):confused:
injected ig-platform-id : 0x01660003 (Working on El Capitan 10.11.1~10.11.6)
Here is my EFI.zip, The IOREG zip for my Thinkpad and the screenshots.
This Thinkpad has a working El Capitan 10.11.6 on the SSD which going to install Sierra.
Thank you so much for your help!!

You did not read the instructions very carefully. If you had, you would have provided EFI/Clover, not the entire EFI folder. I did not download it due to its size. Make sure attach only EFI/Clover, and eliminate themes.

After reading the guide I applied the config.plist patch for HD4000 with 1366x768 resolution and put FakeSMC , AppleIntel100e and NullCpuPowermanagement into the kexts folder. And the installer boots up! Thank you so much! You made my Thinkpad Alive!! Thank you so much for you help ! :D

NullCPU is not needed with Clover.
 
Thank you for your kind reminder :D
