Hi all
I cannot succeed in my build.
I made the usb key with unibeast, sierra, multibeast. I can boot from usb but the installer do not start properly and I cannot reach the disk utility to prepare the target SSD.
After the graphical logo appears, the progress bar is shown, the really first start is drawn in white, but then the system hangs and there is no progress at all.
The mobo is an ASUS H170i-PRO, the CPU is an i5-6500.
Is there someone to suggest proper clover switches to be used in order to allow the system to perform the installation?
Thank you very much in advance
 
Boot in verbose mode and post a picture of the screen when it stops.

Thanks for your reply. I will be able to perform the task when I came back home, later. Sorry for delayed feedback.

Hi,
here is a snapshot of the boot process with -v option. The system hangs :(

Ensure that SIP is disabled too.

Thank you for suggesting the actions. I suppose to do the changes on the USB key I use to boot, so I need to edit the config.plist with a running macos: is it true? Can you kindly suggest a .plist editor?

Yes.

Clover Configurator, Xcode, PlistEdit Pro.

No, at Clover Boot Screen select Options > PCI devices > USB Ownership and USB Injection

For permanent solution check Inject USB + FixOwnership in Clovers config.plist as P1LGRIM showed you.
  • Download Clover Configurator (Vibrant Edition)
  • Open Clover Configurator
  • Mount your EFI partition
  • Open EFI/EFI/Clover/Config.plist
  • Go to Devices > USB and enable Inject and FixOwnership
  • Save
  • Close Clover Configurator
