Doesn't boot into macOS #188

This is I think prevalent across High Sierra and Catalina, whenever I open Clover, select macOS and press Enter, it shows the output fine, up to a point where it says Service exited with abnormal code: 1

This has happened to me multiple times, reinstalling and installing, and every single time it doesn't work. Is it something to do with my hardware/graphics settings?

After that it goes on for a few seconds and then dies.

Same for me.

My system:

AMD Ryzen 5 2600X
NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1070 Ti
Actually running Deepin Linux, on uname -a: Linux Yiqian 4.15.0-30deepin-generic [...] x86_64 GNU/Linux

it's most likely a GPU compatibility issue, not 100% sure though; here are some suggestions :

do the following in in the basic.sh file :
change the -vga line to -vga virtio \
change the -smp line to -smp 1 \ ( delete every thing before the backslash " \ " )
and just in case change ' -m' line to -m 8G \ and report back the results. Regards

Hello everyone, I tried following your suggestions, @xradiation . Here's what my basic.sh and directory look like: DeepinBildschirmfoto_dde-desktop_20200417175051

Unfortunately qemu continues to exit abnormally with error code 1 (disregard the artifacts, there are none in the original mp4): deepin-screen-recorder_qemu-system-x86_64_20200417174852

unfortunately am not able to reproduce the kernel panic my self, a dump would be really useful at this point. another thing to consider is passing kernel arguments, to disable the graphics firmware altogether : -disablegfxfirmware

Edit : https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/eh5pgh/is_ryzentosh_stable_enough_for_professional_usage/

it seems to be ryzen (AMD in general) related issue, although it's possible to patch the kernel to get it done, it's much more complicated than intel cpus.
am not running any ryzen workstations yet, in case of bare metal installation it's obvious why the AMD platform causes compatibility issues however it's not clear for me why qemu isn't able to abstract the hardware "cpu instruction set emulation" in this case ? @foxlet

@vikramdurai @pr1metine @xradiation try my repository and tell me if it works, instructions for moving over to it are here: https://notaperson535.github.io/OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM/migrating/
