Yosemite Installation Problem

[pravinxp]

Hi, I am new to Hackintosh.

I bought the motherboard and Processor based on the Buyers guide.
Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3
Core i5-6400

Disk Utility format my pendrive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - Options - Master Boot Record

Now I used Unibeast 6.2.0 to make an 32GB USB3 pendrive from my macbook

OS Selected - Yosemite
Bootloader : UEFI
Optional Graphics - Selected none as I have no graphics card
Verified and Continued...

Now after completion if I try to boot from Pendrive, I get "reboot and select proper boot device, Press any key to continue"

Below is the BIOS Settings I am using... Please help me out.

Skylake hardware is not supported on Yosemite.
You will need El Capitan 10.11.4 or higher.

Is it because of that I am not able to Boot from USB ?

Did you follow any guide?

Partition scheme should be GUID Partition Table not Master Boot Record.

If you can't find it on the tab Purchased in the App Store app you didn't download it before and you can't download it anymore.

You can however download Sierra in the App Store.

BreBo, thank you so much for helping me out. Today I am going to try Sierra on my system. I tried to partition in yosemite as GUID partition and I am getting two partition even after selecting one partition... Is it normal ?
