ASUS Prime Z370-A II Won't Boot MacOS from USB **End Random Seed*

[nickacevedo]

Hi there, I've successfully installed OSX onto my SSD using the Unibeast Guide

Now, when I boot from the USB and choose 'Boot MacOS from Mojave', (My SSD name) I get an Apple logo and progress bar which loads very fast, then halts at about the 50% mark, it then either freezes here and does not move, or as of late, has been accompanied by some sort of screen distortion or graphics flash, and then freezes there. in Verbose mode, it is an End Random Seed +++++++++++ error.

Here's a screenshot of my Kexts and drivers:

My hardware is:
Mobo: ASUS Prime Z370-A II
CPU: Intel i5 8600K
AMD RX580 8GB
SAMSUNG 970 Evo Plus (Updated firmware so it's compatible)
Corsair Vengeance 32GB 2666mhz




BIOS setup:
Before I did, I updated the bios using the built in bios update tool.
I followed this bios setup guide
Advanced Settings > CPU Configuration > Intel Virtualization Technology > Enabled
Advanced Settings > Onboard Devices Configuration > M.2_1 Configuration > Auto
Advanced Settings > Onboard Devices Configuration > Serial Port Configuration > Serial Port 1 > Off
Advanced Settings > System Agent (SA) Configuration > VT-d > Disabled
Advanced Settings > System Agent (SA) Configuration > Above 4G Decoding > Enabled
Advanced Settings > System Agent (SA) Configuration > Graphics > Primary Display > PCIE (when Nvidia drivers are installed - if not: CPU Graphics)
Advanced Settings > USB Configuration > Legacy Support > Auto
Advanced Settings > USB Configuration > USB Mouse and Keyboard Simulator - Disabled
Advanced Settings > Boot > Secure Boot > Secure boot state disabled
Advanced Settings > Boot > Secure Boot > OS Type > Other OS
Advanced Settings > Boot > CSM (Compatibility Support Module) > Launch CSM > Enable
Advanced Settings > Boot > CSM (Compatibility Support Module) > Boot Device Control > UEFI and Legacy OPROM
Advanced Settings > Boot > CSM (Compatibility Support Module) > Boot from Storage Devices > UEFI driver first

This has left me really stumped.

Also, attached below is my config.plist

Any help would be super appreciated!

Thanks

One quick thing to try:

• Backup your current config.plist and try the attached version. (Rename the file of course.)
• Also backup CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/AptioMemoryFix-64.efi and replace it with OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi (just click to download).

Thanks for your help!

I did what you recommended and it booted right into codes with No Apple logo, it ended here and hasn't moved
