I don't know how to create a bootable USB using Clover and OS X Yosemite. I started off with the dreaded Niresh's Yosemite Zone. I was able to install it and get into desktop and everything, but it used Chameleon and I couldn't get my r9 290 to work using the common Clover guide. I decided to then try to create an OS X Yosemite install with Clover in OS X using Disk Utility and Chameleon with 10.10.4.dmg, but I wasn't able to boot with it.

My questions are:

  • How should I edit the config.plist to ensure that the bootable USB works?
  • Since I'm using Haswell refresh, do I need to do anything special with AppleCPU/NullCPU?
  • Are there any common tasks I overlooked? I followed Tonymacx86's OS X Yosemite guide with Clover down to step 3 when trying to install, but the boot was unsuccessful.
