Do you have any information about the error? like what error you have encountered? and the kernel panic screen, logs, your EFI folder, configuration? (If any)

the bold are the difference.. everything is the same.. I am confirming the rest of the spec. only I changed it using Clover configurator to change the config.plist in your EFI to -v in the boot.

download Mojave from the App Store on the Mac... made the USB installer using terminal and then Clover using the latest Clover to make the EFI... the error I am getting is the screen shot...

hexprojectgit commented 4 years ago

let me know what else you need... thanks so much!!

@hexprojectgit This is an ACPI error. Most likely DSDT or SSDT. You don't need a custom DSDT to boot the installer on this machine.

p.s. if possible, in the future, please combine the chain into one message. I get notified about each message separately

Colton-Ko commented 4 years ago

The solution is to switch to full hotpatch (Full SSDT) rather than partial hotpatch (DSDT+some SSDT). I am working on it, once I have finished my work I will update the repository (hopefully within today).

Current progress: ✔️ Switch to OC ✔️ Switch to full hotpatch ✔️ Update kexts ✔️ Testing 🔜 Update README w/ OC

I experience much less ACPI errors on OpenCore (compared to CLOVER), I suggest you moving to OpenCore (The OpenCore config is just uploaded, you may go check it out and give feedback to me :) )

download Mojave from App Store, made USB installer using terminal, and EFI from Terminal using diskutil to mount... and then copy entire EFI Folder ( from new uploaded opencore that was uploaded) to EFI that was just mounted... ( I did whole erase from the top level using disk utility before install of the Mojave installer using terminal)

when I boot it to USB HDD.. clover boot manager shows up?? but without any hard drive or anything to boot...

I put the USB stick on the right side.. which is always power on if that matters...

Press Esc or Alt button on start up, you will see a boot menu from OpenCore.

Colton-Ko commented 4 years ago

@hexprojectgit Sorry #5 indicates that I have placed a wrong file in EFI/BOOT/, that's why you saw CLOVER boot loader instead of OpenCore loading. I apologize for my careless mistake.

Porco-Rosso commented 4 years ago

No wonder I couldn't boot the installer based on your EFI yesterday, will report once I'm done with all the setup

hexprojectgit commented 4 years ago

@Colton-Ko so I used OC the updated files.. but it hangs when I try to make a choice for the list.. and times out and then reboots and cycles... so I couldn't pick choice... so I am not sure what I am doing wrong... that's for the regular EFI as well as for 1820A modem config.plist file... .. I downloaded and replace and rename the EFI in OC? or do I do that after POST? the error is in the picture...

but both config.plist files that I use gives me the same error..
