Black screen after reboot, no clover menu #18

To Reproduce For "reasons" I created the iso images on one system and copied them to another for installation. All goes well until step #6 -- the installer image boots, I erase the target disk and install Mojave. After 3-4 minutes the VM reboots and I shutdown and unmount macOS-Mojave.iso.cdr. When I then boot again I do not get the Clover boot menu -- I just get a black screen. It does not respond to keyboard input, and didn't change even after sitting for a couple hours. During this time VirtualBox is busy.

Expected behavior I expected to see the Clover boot menu.

Aha! Changing the VM version from "Mac OS X (64-bit)" to "macOS 10.13 High Sierra (64-bit)" fixed it!
