Upgrade from Mavericks failed

It's just funny that I can boot Mavericks from the flash drive that fails to boot the Sierra installer without kernel panic.
But now I am preparing for a journey and have no more time for this, at least for several weeks.

When you're back, you can continue this thread!
 
I'm back and tried it again with an old version of Unibeast that was still saved somewhere. It failed to install the bootloader, so I installed Clover later. When I try to boot it the result is always the same. Here are pictures of the options and the kernel panic of my latest attempt. The same install stick boots Mavericks without problems, but when I pick Ubuntu or Windows Clover freezes. They are on another harddrive that is formatted in MBR.

There is a KP. Just to double check, you're using Mavericks and want to upgrade it to High Sierra right?
 
Yes, still the same goal, but it looks like this laptop is incompatible with higher versions of OS X beyond Mavericks.

Provide the EFI you're using!
