On the Clover screen, press [Enter] to boot up the macOS VM. You need to format the QEMU disk partition (the one you created with `qemu-img`) before installing the macOS, otherwise macOS won't know how to use the partition. Choose [Disk Utility], then select the QEMU disk that is larger (e.g. the 64 GB one if you were following these instructions exactly). Choose [Erase] and then give your disk a new name. Once it's done, exit the Disk Utility and choose [Install macOS].
