Hello, i am unable to reach installer because a grey screen from hp appears. it shows in top left corner my laptop specs and top right says "this selection will direct the system to continue to booting process" but there's no way to pass that. it has some options like a bios but it's not. in few words it appears after choosing clover usb on boot loader and it can't see peripherals, so i'm stuck in it. what should i do to pass that dam screen?

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"

All i know is written in signature. Clover is Legacy
 
Follow the guide. If you have trouble, post photo and EFI/Clover folder.
 
@RehabMan i have extractly the same problem like him. I followed your guide and I chose "Clover Legacy". How can I solve this? :(
 
Why are you using Clover legacy with the hardware in you profile? It is UEFI capable.
I thought legacy would be easier. I will give UEFI a try. Thank you ^_^

Update: Awesome. The installer booted up. At the first shot, I used -v flag, it got reboot. Then second attempt with default settings, it booted. Lol
