Not likely.. In my case it was a loose hard disk cable.

What exact touchpad do you have? What are the kexts you are using?

Success! MacOS Big Sur on Asus Vivobook (Kaby Lake). Installed Catalina with OC (0.6.3) using this guide and then updated directly to Big Sur. Sleep-Wake, Battery, Fn keys, HD Graphics 620- everything is working near perfect (except: Card reader, Fn keys for brightness, HDMI audio). Can anyone...

Hi, I have finally got mine working. Just in case- check all the drivers and the config are from same OC release, kexts are updated. Also remove ACPI battery manager, SMCSuperIO etc whichever you don't need for the installation and try again. After you make changes make sure not to boot into...

Finally I got BigSur installed successfully. I am not quite sure what fixed it, but created a whole new EFI folder from OC 0.6.3 release and updated them with latest kexts, then I downloaded the install app once again and the installation went on flawlessly. BTW, @Binuk which model of vivobook...

Hey @doug385 , I am getting the same error.. What are your hardware? and also.. did you check your config with opencore.slowgeek.com??

I removed voodooI2c, voodoI2cHID, smcBattermanager, smcSuperIO, smcProcessor kexts and rechecked the config.plist. still stuck at the same place.. previously I was getting this error message AppleActuatorDeviceUserClient::stop entered. Now I am getting no error message and the installer simply...

@Feartech ,, this was a due to some improper/not so good connection of an FPC that connects MOBO with sata controllers. Now I got the installation done successfully.. trying to upgrade to Big Sur. :headbang:

@Binuk , thanks a lot.. I will give them a try

After successfully running Catalina on my Vivobook (core i5-7200u) with opencore, I tried direct upgrade to Big Sur. Anyway, after a few time I start the installation, the system reboots and I get the MacOS Installer entry. System automatically boots into the MacOS Installer while it got stuck...

Manage to get to the desktop by any means.. then you can replace the clover EFI folder with OC EFI

I am on opencore and I could not.. USB C port is working for storage devices though.. I am also struggling to get my HDMI out working. Asus Vivobook R541/ Core i5-7200u -I am getting graphics acceleration and correct VRAM in sys info though.

Hi @Shinji3rd . I have built Catalina on Vivobook(Core i5-7200u) with opencore.. everything works as expected except Fn keys for brightness up-down are not working. Also I could not get the SD card reader to work ( previous I could unlock it with Sinetek-rtsx kext). My system configuration:

I wonder why the installation drive name is toggled between "OSX CAt" and "Macintosh HD" every time I reset the NVRAM :rolleyes:. Could it be an NVRAM issue?

Hey.. @Feartech. I got some clues here.. after failing with all this kexts, I tried installing Catalina on my old sata HDD.. It was old and sluggish and took much time to install. Now, keep a note that I formatted the HDD before installation with 1parse security option to erase as much as...
