Since updating to OpenCore 0.8.0 and Monterey 12.3, my Ryzen 3900-based Hackintosh (running on an X570 motherboard) has had two annoying problems:
1. It will not sleep. Sleeping the machine results in a black screen, but the computer per se isn't sleeping (fans and lights still on). At this...
And at the next boot, I’m dropped back into the BIOS (if the USB key is unplugged). Going to the Boot section shows that my previous choices have reverted to “Disabled”; unsurprising, perhaps, since the BIOS told me I hadn’t made any changes EVEN THOUGH I REALY DID.
Arg.
There appears to be no lane sharing between the SATA and m.2 ports. But things are weird. If I go into the SATA configuration part of the BIOS, it shows the m.2 ports as unoccupied, I.e. “Not present”:
Sadly that made no difference at all. The motherboard still doesn’t see the NVME SSD as a bootable device, even though it has an EFI partition and valid BOOT folder.
Oddly, if I go into the BIOS ”Boot” menu, I can select “UEFI OS (M.2_2: Force MP600)” as a boot device. When I press F10 to save...
I’ve done a fair bit of searching on this topic, but haven’t really found a solution. Apologies if I’ve missed it.
My father’s Hackintosh comprises an ASUS Crosshair VIII Impact DTX motherboard, Ryzen 3900X CPU, and Corsair Force 600 NVME SSD. It’s running Catalina and Opencore.
There was a...
You're the victim of Time Machine's use of "local snapshots", a new feature of the APFS file system. Theoretically, local snapshots are considered "purgeable" in that the OS should start deleting them automatically if the space is needed for something else. In practice I've found that this...
Do you have to edit the Info.plist file yourself?
I've tried this three times now; running OS X 10.13.3 and trying to install the x.106 version of the NVIDIA driver. Every time the script leaves me with a "Repackaged-WebDriver.pkg" on my desktop, which I run, which then complains that this...
Here's a question. Well, two, actually:
1. I'm running 378.10.10.10.20.109 on my High Sierra 10.13.1 installation. I see that there are at least two subsequent versions, with 378.10.10.10.25.103 being the latest. Since these versions have been available for some time, why does the NVIDIA...
The directory name is in fact CLOVER; I mistyped in my message.
When I try to mount with Clover Configurator, I get this error message:
"I can't find a config file. Do you want mount EFI partition?"
So MultiBeast won't mount because it can't find config.plist, and thus thinks that the EFI...
There are two SSDs and one HD in the system. The boot SSD is APFS; the other two volumes are HFS. The complete path to the config.plist file is:
/Volumes/EFI/EFI/Clover/config.plist
Hey. I think I see the problem. Why is there an EFI folder at the root of the EFI volume?
Sadly, Multibeast 10.1 has the same issue with my High Sierra APFS boot volume. The log file says:
11/12/17 12:58:56 - Starting MultiBeast 10.1.0-20171111
11/12/17 12:59:19 - Mounting EFI
11/12/17 12:59:19 - EFI partition for volume does not contain a CLover config.plist. Exiting.
The only...
I see there's a new MultiBeast, 10.1. Let's give that a try.
Nope. Still fails mounting the EFI partition. Here's what the log file says:
11/12/17 12:58:56 - Starting MultiBeast 10.1.0-20171111
11/12/17 12:59:19 - Mounting EFI
11/12/17 12:59:19 - EFI partition for volume does not contain a...
After finally getting the apfs.efi details figured out, I finally have a working, bootable APFS volume with High Sierra. Yay!
But all's not well just yet. I have no sound, and some USB ports don't work, so I want to use MultiBeast 10.0 to install the proper audio driver and expand the number of...
