Hello,

just discovered you're repo and I'm quiet impressed by your work. As you requested in the wiki, I request the support of the Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UP4 TH motherboard. A dump from IORegistryExplorer is attached.

Corrected the name of the motherboard.

Thank you! I'm working on refactoring some parts of the repo right now, and will add this as soon as possible.

I got El Capitan installed on my PC. I only have some quirks I want to document, to help you with the development. I changed your install script to recognize the name of the board. Also I had to change the dsl file, as it didn't compile. Now the system is booting and running. The following misbehaviors I have noticed:

I attached the system log of the first boot cycles, so you can get some more information. system.log.zip

+1 would love to see support for this motherboard.

@Ninerian Can you tell me what changes you made to the dsl file to get this working?

deweydb commented 7 years ago

Ok. I found the line that causes problems and commented it out, but i'm not really sure if that is the correct solution.

In SSDT-GA-Z77X-UP4-TH.dsl

I replaced: Scope (GLAN) { Name (_STA, Zero) } with: / Scope (GLAN) { Name (_STA, Zero) } /

Support has been added in v2.0.2. Please reply with a IOReg dump (after running the script, with the DSDT loaded) if possible. Feel free to reopen this issue if there are any motherboard-specific issues.
