This is the first laptop i'm trying to hack, so i've been reading this guide carefully & got a couple of steps further after various attempts to create the ideal boot-usb stick. But currently i'm stuck on the following screen:
My Hardware:
MSI GS63VR 7RF Stealth Pro
cpu: Intel Core i7 7700HQ Kabylake
gfx: Intel HD630
gfx-dedicated: gtx 1060 6gb
Motherboard: MS-16K2 (intel hm170 chipset)
memory: 16Gb ddr4 (2x8Gb samsung)
Network: Killer e2500
Drives: - 256 NVME SSD (samsung mzvpw256)
- 2Tb HDD (seagate)
Contents of my drivers64UEFI folder:
Update 21-04-2017:
The laptop is up and running with the hd630 graphics, I am currently using el-capitan, but an upgrade to sierra is possible. I myself however had some issue's getting the graphics to work properly but that could be caused by the fact that I went with the upgrade path ... So you will have to see for your self on that one.
To get the installer to boot, you will need a fake ig-platform-id 0x12345678, you wil need to patch the Nvme SSD & For this exact version of the laptop with the 4K display, you will also need to patch the pixelclock (see https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.164990/)
Once installed you will be able to fix the graphics by changing the ig-platform to the appropriote one 0x19168086, ethernet can be fixed with the right kext (https://www.tonymacx86.com/resources/atherose2200ethernet.322/) & for audio, you will be able to get it to produce sound using the voodooHDA kext. BUT the woofer & speakers are registered as seperate audio devices & the headphone jack is recognized as a SPDIF, so you won't have any system-volume control on that one...
Pascal card won't be able to work, as this laptop uses Optimus (graphics card switching technology from nvidia) which isn't supported at all, so even with the new drivers released, there is now way of getting the card to work under mac os.
