Hi.
I did have El Capitan working on this exact setup however I tried to upgrade to sierra which I managed to do, then I found out my audio wasn't working so I tried to install a voodoo kext and then sierra wouldn't boot :(
I think it's because I installed an audio kext ontop of an audio kext or something...


So anyways,
I'm going to start from scratch again. But I can't seem to get El Capitan installer to boot from USB. I'm super frustrated.

I'm running:
Gigabyte GA-H170N-WIFI
Crucial Budget 2x 8GB
Core i3-6100
Samsung 850 EVO 500GB

So I follow this guide https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-el-capitan-on-the-skylake-h170n-wifi.178197/

And here is the attached image for the verbose mode.

I'm all out of ideas. Been trying for the last 5 hours to get this going again...
Please help.

So the way I got this to boot was in Clover, go to

Options>Binaries patching> and check - Kernel Support CPU and Kernal Haswell-E Patch.

And then it could boot.

Then I created a sierra OSX USB boot drive and gave up on el capitan :D
