Are there any plans to get it working? Don't necessarily expect support here, just leaving my findings for anyone who is interested.
I'm currently in the process of figuring out why my system will only randomly boot to MacOS and then run just fine.
To support Ventura, I have upgraded to OC 0.8.8 and tried both iMacPro1,1 and MacPro7,1 SMBIOS.
Turbo boost unlock is part of my BIOS already and works stable in Windows - so I suspect it's not that. It runs stable once MacOS loads up too. So I suspect it's not the problem.
I have enabled full debugging and wasn't able to see any kernel crashes in the log file. The last line of the log file is always:
[EB|#LOG:EXITBS:START]. I've tried all the solutions in the guide and have looked to see if log files show anything but couldn't spot an obvious offender.
Crashes happen both with UEFI (MSI Mech 2x RX 6600) and with CSM enabled (Sapphire Pulse RX 560D 2GB). Since the RX 560 doesn't show a picture when using Above 4G Decoding, I have also tried with and without on the RX 6600.
During fresh install of Ventura, I had the stop sign appear. So I've suspected the USBMap. But once MacOS is actually loaded that one works fine. Trying different USB ports has yielded no consistent results.
If you have any suggestions what to try, I'd be happy to give it a shot. It almost appears like some racing condition to me due to the seemingly random nature. I had suspected kext order, AppleIntelMCEReporter, UEFI/PCI allocation - but at this point I'm quite lost.
If I can ever get it to run, I'll gladly submit a pull request.
Edit: I was able to get a kernel panic log in MacOS (not on the USB) and adding AppleMCEReporterDisabler.kext in full UEFI mode with the RX 6600 for now seems to resolve the problem. I suspect the multi socket kext MacOS uses by default is not active in iMac17,1. The SMBIOS should be changed since support was dropped in Ventura anyway.
