Herve, I should have been clear, it aborts in the 2nd stage where I select menu item from Clover to do the actual update. I

 

Jake, I will try the core storage to legacy you mention. I believe it creates some wierd logical partition. I'm been wondering all this time if its dual boot plus fact I have SSD which it wants to default to APFS while I have it as HFS because dual boot does not work otherwise.

 

Will update this post.

 

EDIT - So that worked, I think. Sound and Mouse pad not working so I can't even click mouse. Will try fix all these things.

Okay, USB mouse worked so I was able to verify 10.13.1 installed and I repaired cache and permissions. Everything seems to be good.

Also more importantly, it got rid of the extra "Recovery" icon in Clover Boot Menu that was driving me nuts.

 

TYVM to both of you!

Hi all,


I'm trying to install HS with Clover on my E5440 in UEFI mode on a new SSD (for the moment).


I followed Jake Lo's installation guide and created a usb installer via  terminal using "createinstallmedia" and using the appropriate Sierra bootpack  E5440_A13.zip from the same thread. 


I also applied the changes for HS to config.plist.


I can boot from the installer, but clovers boot screen seem to be in a loop with a problem a displaypolicyd and acpi battery manager (pictures 1 and 2).


see in attached file my full folder EFI and somme pictures in verbose mode 


i think that the problem is in some patch applied in config.plist  or dsdt.aml


Can you verified my configuration


Best regards

@tonio92

according to your screenshot, your system has Optimus (Nvidia card + HD 4400).

YOu'll need a different set of patch DSDT/SSDT.

Can you confirm?

What version of BIOS are you running?

Can you boot to Clover GUI. Hit F4 in the keyboard.

Compress and attach /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Origin folder here for patching.
