Right-click on the emptiest partition in the hard drive that you
want to install OS X on, and click “Shrink.” This will allow you to
shrink the size of that partition so that you have extra space on
your hard drive to create a new partition for Mac OS X.

since you will be wiping this partition in macOS Installer

should now be showing up. Select it, and then click the

Once you are done with the “Customize” page, install Sierra.
This will take at least 30 minutes.
Once again, if you get a kernel panic / loading error when you
try to boot your new Sierra installation (or if the installation
simply won’t start within 10 minutes), you will need to enter
some boot flags. To enter boot flags, manually restart your
computer by pressing your computer’s power button. Then,
once you have booted back into the Sierra Zone menu, try to
type any necessary boot flags before pressing the enter / return
key. Check out our list of common boot flags for Hackintosh
(https://www.hackintosh.computer/168/hackintosh-debug/) and
