That’s it! Now you’re ready to quit Terminal, reboot, and continue the installation process by booting the “Boot macOS Install from …” partition. usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Set :ConvertToAPFS false" minstallconfig.xml # now fix the minstallconfig.xml with PlistBuddy # now change to the "macOS Install Data" directory # then change your working directory to it (in my case, I used '1013') # list /Volumes to remind yourself of the name you gave it Now, in Terminal, navigate to your target volume: When that is finished booting, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu. To avoid that, after running the installer, and upon the first reboot where you would be normally directing Clover to boot the next stage of the installer by selecting “Boot macOS Install from …”, instead, boot the “install_osx” partition on USB again. You then run the installer, create an HFS+J partition suitable for macOS with Disk Utility, then point the installer to that partition.Įven though you create a new HFS+J partition, if the target is an SSD, the installer will still convert it to APFS. The process involves creating an installer USB with createinstallmedia, then booting that USB (via Clover on the same USB). Fresh install scenario (or update), modifying minstallconfig.xml using PlistBuddy Hopefully it is obvious that the target volume must already be formatted as HFS+J. Note: Change the_target_volume as appropriate for the actual name you decided to use for your macOS target volume. $ /Volumes/"Image Volume/Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall -volume the_target_volume -converttoapfs NO -agreetolicense
