can you remove CsmVideoDxe-64.efi and OsxLowMemFixDrv-64.efi from clover drivers FakeSMC_LPCSensors.kext from kexts/other

if you have issues with bandwidth you can try swapping the cables. also if you have any extra antenna cables in the machine like wwan you can use them too if it reaches. hmm the other OS's where installed in legacy mode? when i installed windows in UEFI mode selecting UEFI installer from the BIOS boot selection screen i think its F12 at boot. it made a Microsoft folder in my EFI. i am guessing linux might do the same but i have not installed LINUX since like version 12 or so i think its up to 18 now. usually they used to install grub to the linux volume as to not have the bootloaders conflict. i am not sure how good clover is at detecting linux distros. i know they added a few distros to the detection sherma a couple months back.

wow you also got bit by the bad keyboard? that seems to be a growing trend lately.

have you tried to disable CSM and Fastboot in bios?

did you rebuild your caches when you removed and replaced the kexts? the old kext might be in relinked kernel cache if you used L/E or S/L/E/.

check your config to see if it is hiding volume "preboot"

when you say you reached the installer where you able to install osx? if so then you have to transfer your EFI to the hard drive.

sometimes you have to run disk utility and repair the whole drive it might correct your EFI mount issues or give you a reason why its not mounting.

can you install this clover and then use latest clover configurator app to check if fix headers is selected then resave your config file. clover moved the location of the fix headers patch maybe your KP is associated with that. also if you can re-upload the KP image, because when I click on it it just stays loading so I can't look at it in detail. Clover_v2.4k_r4452.zip

you probably need to remove the PS2 kext from all locations it might be like S/L/E, E/E, Clover or Extra folder if using chameleon boot loader and also including prelinked kernel and caches hopefully that will get the machine to boot. obviously you will need a usb keyboard and mouse. once you get it to boot then add in the correct ps2 kext. if you are using clover then after following the above you can put the ps2 kext into clover other.

do you have a Microsoft folder in your EFI? if not you might have to copy it back from the old drive.... well if there is an old drive. I am guessing linux might also have made a folder in EFI.

yes the fix headers clover option is necessary on most machines for High Sierra.

is the guide you used have Intel HD 520 Graphics it might be patched for something else.

the photo says you have an error on device iopci XHC maybe try applying the XHC rename patch using clover configurator

did you try adding LiLU and the plugin DVMT fixup?

what are you using for audio if voodoohda you might have to edit the info.plist inside the kext to suit your needs

ok so try putting back USBInjectAll.kext and see if USB drive gets detected

my attached EFI folder did not work for you @tra_ung?

if you have a dual band wifi network 2.4 / 5g try renaming them differently to separate them .they might be conflicting also if you have messed with the wifi card make sure your antennas are seated properly on the card

I think the boot screen depends on what smbios profile you boot with modern machine you get the black old model you get grey.

maybe try this if it does not work then you can try adding your device and device id's to the kext info.plist

does it keep you from booting?

what does linux have to do with OSX? unless you know how to port the driver.

how much ram does your machine have.

do you have -disablegfxfirmware
