I am happy with a stable 10.12.5

Gigabyte z170x ultra gaming
i5 6600
32 GB ram
500 GB Samsung 960 nvme M2
500 GB Samsung 750 evo.
Nvidia GTX 1050ti
Intel graphics is disabled in BIOS

I decide to go for High Sierra (APFS).
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/update-directly-to-macos-high-sierra.232707/

But at clover boot screen when I choose Boot MacOs Install, nothing happens. Can not reach the installer, but only endless loop.

Have already tried.
Run the new MultiBeast 10.2.0
then, this guide
  • In clover select the drive you want to boot
  • Press SPACEBAR
  • Select verbose mode -v
  • Disable NVidia graphics driver nv_disable=1
  • Enable single user mode -s
  • Wait until the system boot to the shell prompt (you will see the whole boot sequence printing on screen debug log)
  • Press CTRL+D => this should end logout the root user
  • Wait a little (again you will see the whole boot sequence log)
  • Your system should boot into the GUI, where you can login without the GPU acceleration.

NO LUCK AT ALL
here is my config, if anyone can help

It has nothing to do with luck.

here is my config, if anyone can help
Your config.plist is corrupt which is the same as no config at all :
Code:
config.plist: Found non-key inside <dict> at line 250
 
delete the serial number, thats why.
 
this is it

Why have you selected Patch VBios with no patch ?
Why do you have an Intel ig-platform-id (0x19120000) when you have Nvidia graphics ?
Intel graphics KextsToPatch ?
SIP not disabled.
Inject kexts should be Detect not Yes.

Try this edited version of your config.plist and report progress :

Thank you, i will
 
I did try your config. Same thing.
Change values to mine config. restart. Still can not reach the installer.
Tried with nv_disable=1. The same.

Can not think anything else. I am a novice, anyway.
Maybe if I disconnect the Nvidia?
 
I can not in any way reach the intaller. On reboot, the bar goes half way and then to clover first screen, where i have to choose again the installer. And again, and again
