Not Working

• Built-in WiFi and Bluetooth. This will never work, dont even waste time here. Purchased the TP Link T6 Archer and it was plug-and-play, still need to get bluetooth card/usb

Caveat

• After first reboot, the installer might be stuck at About 13/15 minutes remaining.... Don't be alrmed, just give it 5 ~ 10 min, it will eventually work again. Your mouse and keyboard most probably wont be working in this installation stage
• If you encounter the error below, just clear your BIOS via motherboard
• If you get an error with a Prohibited Sign instead of an Apple logo, Inject Graphics on Clover Bootloader.
