Can I probe High Sierra Public Beta with APFS? Some tutorial to formar HFS+ partititon to APFS?
High Sierra public beta 1 is out!
hope it has a more stable install system, especially so it can be tampered with
Hoping for some good news!

Not yet, at least here there is still no such tool for that yet, but there are several people working on it
So far you can only test high sierra with HFS.

Where do you see that? (still "Coming soon" on the Apple beta page): https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/guide#macos
Various blogs about apple, including mac rumors have confirmed that for the various os’s public betas are out
Just iOS and tvOS so far.
MacOS should be before the end of the week though (maybe today) - to make the end of June commitment.

There is no Public Beta release of High Sierra yet...
Sure, you can send a message if you want to try APFSBoot before release.
I would like to fresh install HS on a blank hard disk, with or without APFS, just to get a feel for it, on my 2008 Pro. So I have downloaded the two similarly sized tools mentioned earlier, one zip, one tgz. What other files are necessary and could you perhaps provide (or point to) instructions for a non-expert but still curious user?
You have 2 options:
You can use this tutorial http://dosdude1.com/sierrapatch.html
with this patcher http://dosdude1.com/highsierra/macOS High Sierra Patcher.zip
Or this tutorial, that I test but I don´t undertand because I can´t make a flash drive with then type ./create-disk.sh to create the flash drive.
An unsupported Mac installer for High Sierra. Installs High Sierra from inside macOS or an USB disk, with no working system required. NightEnabler also integrated.
newCore App Beta
Limitations
- APFS installations are supported only when installed using macOS Sierra
- Only HFS+ installations are supported in USB disk mode
Download
Version 0.2 (GUI): Link Available Soon.
Version 0.1 (Terminal Alpha): [URL]http://repo.furcode.co/macOS/HighSierra-10.13/NewCore-Installer.tgz
[/URL]
Thank you @apriliars3, will try it. However wouldn't any of those two methods require access to a large-ish file that contains whatever version of the HS operating system is currently available?
I have installed macOS High Sierra Beta 2 with Sierra patcher dosdude1 and patched in post installation with legacy USB Support injector but the trackpad no being recognized correctly.
And with NewCore 0.1 I don´t understand what is the problem, but I can´t create the flash drive.
@foxlet I finally was able to successfully install high sierra with your 0.1 version of your tool, so it installed and before it booted in to high sierra, as your instructions I boot into normal Sierra and ran your patcher, when I restarted to complete the configuration I had no keyboard mouse or usb, so I went to sierra again and ran the patch again, and this time I got the peripherals working and got thru the configuration part but then I got stuck at the login screen with the spinner and never got further, went to sierra ran the patcher again and then the peripherals stopped working again...
So I formated the hole thing and Im waiting for some more news.
Apple just released macOS High Sierra Developer Beta 2 Update 1
So this means public beta should be just around the corner...
Just an interresting note that I read from some users not sure if it’s true or not, bur several have said that the update is around 350 something mb and it contains fimware updates for some models...

The public beta for macOS High Sierra is out, but I still get this message.
You have to use a supported Mac to download it from the App Store.
Yup. …Downloading the Public Bet Now, onto on my
I'll be sure to report issues to Apple. ….and here.

Currently running macOS Sierra 10.12.5 on that baby with no issue whatsoever
[doublepost=1498771885][/doublepost]I even check marked to update to APFS
Hoping all goes well

High Sierra Beta 2 Update 1 has a new build number, 17A291m, and still continues the recovery-update trend.
How did you patched the upgrade process? It's rebooting for me like DP2 upgrade on all of my macs (multiple supported and unsupported models)
Heh...the Apple "update utility" searches your hard drive for an existing copy first.....found my copy of DP1, then complained as it couldn't verify the identity of the developer. Hilarious!!! Hehe
Deleted it and downloading the installer now.

Well, I was able to get Public Beta 1 installed on my MBP 17" 4,1:
It STILL doesn't allow me to have the battery icon on the menu bar (says my battery charge is 0%, even though it was showing 100% with the installer), nor does it recognize the trackpad as such (though two-finger scrolling still works). I'll have to see if other options work, even though it's not reported as a trackpad.
The version of dosdude1's patcher that I used reports as 1.0b1
Edit: Both 3-finger as well as 4-finger features work as they do on Sierra (on my Mac Mini, with it's magic trackpad). So, I'd say all functionality is there, even though not recognized as a trackpad in System Preferences.
Edit2: iMessage sync is f'd up. None of my existing conversations brought over. New messages on other devices don't bring that over to the MBP. The only conversation that exists is one that is initiated on the MBP. That one syncs correctly.

As I only have this old MacPro 3.1 I can't download the Public Beta via the App Store, is there anywhere else I can download it from?
I think I DM'd you last year for a link.
Hi guys. Please, help me. I want to install HS using your methods. But I cant understand, which method gives me APFS and, in future, OTA updates using AppStore.
One more question, if I install HS now on pard of my HDD drive, on second part I want Sierra( as recovery, i will delete it after normally installl of HS ), can i do it? And, when i will buy SSD, i need to install Capitan, then Sierra, and after that, High Sierra? Thanks.
