Hi Jake,

thanks for helping! 

The error comes once i go through the "initial" installation (when i choose language, destination HDD, etc.) and it says it is going to reboot). It restarts  (this time i choose from the destination HDD to boot from) and I after a moment I get a "macOS could not be installed on your computer" screen.

Regarding the DSDT.aml, it can be that i grab it from the E6220 bootpack, since the forums indicate that both computers (E6220 and mine - E6320 - are quite similar), but this i do not recall, since the Sierra EFI i put together some time ago.

For the "trying HS" EFI, i got some other guys clover folder (here in the forum) that was working for him. Shall i edit the DSDT then?

I am sure it will help if i provide a log of the installation. I tried running clover in verbose mode, but the messages vanished from the screen quite fast (and the "macOS could not be installed on your computer" appeared)....

 

PS: maybe useful information: when i installed Sierra i remember it took quite some time to first reboot (some good 10 minutes or more), during the High Sierra installation it says something  like "installing... wait 3 minutes" and it reboots even faster....looks to me it is not doing much...

 

Best,

 

 

Hi,

 

i wanted to start playing with macOS and i managed to install Sierra on my old Dell E6320.

I followed this guide:

 

even my E6320 was not listed in the Bootpacks section I managed to have it up and running, so amazing guide guys!!

 

The issue is that, now that I tried High Sierra, I cannot make it work.

I tried different EFIs around the place. But simple does not install/upgrade.

Here the EFI that works (Sierra only)

EFI_Sierra.zip

I did try and modify this EFI (the CLOVER/config.plist) as explained in "NOTE1: Updating the Sierra Bootpack to be use for High Sierra unless there's a High Sierra bootpack already" of the guide... but no success with it.

I have also tried this other EFI

EFI_tryingHS.zip

 

Can anyone here, either fix my current EFI_Sierra or give me a valid High Sierra for the dell e6320 (remember is the i7 version).

 

Thanks a lot for the help!
