Alienware 13 troubles installing - Stuck at "7 minutes remaining"

Hi guys,

So I'm new to everything apple / mac, I want to give the MacOS a go on my Alienware.

I work in IT so have a good understanding of installing an operating system. But being completely new to MacOS, I'm a bit of a noob in this area.

I've been following this guide, and struggled lots through it but finally got the macOS Sierra installation to boot.

I had to use Clover v2.4k_r4003. Couldn't find r3794 used in the guide.

r3911 boots but gets stuck on the black apple loading screen.

​

Using clover r4003, it's very laggy, but I can manage my way through to install. This gets stuck however with "about 7 minutes remaining". https://imgur.com/a/8RFJf9t

I've tried different combinations of drivers & versions of Clover, but no luck yet.

Is there any way to run a debug install to see where it's getting stuck?

Thanks
