Update Directly to macOS High Sierra

[vpetrovic]

Update passed without any issues, with all kexts from old Sierra and Clover 4184. I didn't update clover to 4289, because it cannot boot.
System SSD was on APFS.

I posted it again before seeing you moved it to the KP one. Sorry about that.

For some reason I get stuck with both methods and I updated Clover to latest version. Anyone any ideas?
It get's stuck on the black loading screen after I choose: " boot mac install from mac os...".

Did the direct update from 10.12.6 to 10.13.1! Everything worked except audio and my front panel USB3 ports. I used the audio_cloverALC-130_v0.3.command script to patch the audio -- perfect fix! Then I used Clover to edit the "find" and "replace" fields in the "port limit patch" per this post: < https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/new-usb-raise-port-limit-patch-for-high-sierra.226072/ >. That enabled my extra ports. iMessage, etc all still working fine...

I can't get either option to work. I get to the boot screen and choose Boot macOS Install option and then the white apple logo but the progress bar never fills up, it just hangs around 85-90% full.

Hello - I can’t seem to get it updated directly or through a fresh install. This is the error message I get post boot.

Just finished the move from Sierra to High Sierra on my test volume and everything went as advertised. Will test functionality tomorrow and test for a while to make sure it is stable before upgrading on my production volume.

Thanks to everyone tonymacx86 for the great instructions and all the hard work.
