Kernel panic on install #53

Open mahrks opened 3 years ago

mahrks commented 3 years ago

Followed instructions fully, SMBIOS generated and config replaced, did BIOS instructions as much as possible with a successful boot. A bit more than halfway through the install, everything freezes up, mouse cannot move, usb power light on static. Doesn't install at all. Specs: HP EliteBook 840 G5 @ 120hz w/ Sure view privacy i5-8250U UHD 620 16GB DDR4 SAMSUNG internal NVME 256GB

P.S. I think my model is different than traditional EliteBooks, as the Remote Management options wasn't in BIOS>Advanced at all. The last EliteBook 840 G5 I owned macOS worked great on. Same BIOS version regardless.

Thanks in advance

I think it's my SSD, as people have had kernel panic issues in the past. I'm gonna try updating the firmware with Samsung software and see if it works.

Hi,

If you have a PM981, the moment the installer will be accessing the NVME disk it will cause a kernel freeze.

You can try the NVMEfix.kext

https://github.com/acidanthera/NVMeFix

but I think you are safer by buying one that is of the self supported on OSX.

So far I don’t know anyone that has the PM981 and managed to succeed.
