Hi guys.
Just to provide you with some longterm info, along with a -perhaps useful- tip.
Two Asus H97 systems have been running beautifuly, sleeping and waking (RTC alarms, manual wakes) for the past 6 months. They were rebooted only for major OS updates.
In two occasions, however, they too exhibited the crash on wakeup: one in February and one recently. Based on the sequence of events in the console log, I suspect it was the infamous wake from deep sleep bug.
Trying to figure out if anything could be responsible, I realized that I've become very cavalier with system updates. That's probably because everything has been so beautiful
More specifically, I stopped recreating the kext cache manually, before a (cold) boot.
I've reinstated the following procedure, and it has helped as far as I can tell:
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /
Maybe it is relevant, maybe not, it's just FYI.
Hi xenophon61: On your recommendation, I finally tracked down an Asus H97 Plus board to replace my sleep-deprived Gigabyte board. Hopefully, everything is still running smoothly for you. Can you tell me what Clover configuration changes you made after switching from Gigabyte to the Asus board? I'm assuming you updated the SSDT? Do you recall what kexts you have installed. I'm particularly wondering about which ethernet kext to use. Any recommended bios settings.
Thanks.
