Boot Picker freezes when choosing More Options #3

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Hi,

I am using a Mac Pro 4.1 flashed to 5.1 and running macOS 10.13.6

On my internal PCIe card I have installed a SM951 NVMe SSD. I used the method from foxfoobar on MacRumors to boot from the SSD with an external USB drive. I now made a new partition on the same USB drive and followed the instructions. When I reboot my Mac I see the drive "More Options", but as soon as I choose it, it freezes and all I can do is power cycle my Mac.

  1. Do I need a separate USB drive next to the NVMeBoot USB drive?
  2. Is it possible to only use next-loader without the NVMeBoot USB drive, as it supports NVMe drives natively?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I've read, that other people had the same issues, due to a driver issue.

Will leave this thread open for other people.
