How to build your own iMac Pro [Successful Build/Extended Guide]

[kgp]

I fix the error but now

Did you adopt and implement VoodooTSCSync.kext in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other?

Please carefully read my guide and don't ask each step described anyway in all it's detail...

Thanks in advance..

Happy New Year to everyone!!

Glad to help out

I can go back sometime and get more files off it if necessary? Is that the only file you require?

Yes your BIOS dump contribution indeed was fundamental

Well the native Skylake-X CPU implementation is still not completely under control. Any additional information you can find in this direction might be of big help.

Problem Sovled everybody! Thanks for the help.
The issue was with my injecting Kexts and FakeSMC I believe. Started over from scratch and now working properly.

Great. Any time you see that BT line hang in verbose, the issue is a video driver.
Good instructions from TimeLord.

I found it few sec ago - it's old like .... but can give some idea...

@mgregrs i have those kext on folder

I think the easiest way.. will be new config.plist with verification of all basic and most important kext files etc

Few minutes of work and can help immediatly
I prefer that than ask about your shared EFI ... because I feel some wrong detail checked somewhere
but it will be much better for you if you do it yourself step by step

I think I will purchase it and get all the required information from it in my own time, as most of it requires an admin password which I will not get at an Apple store. If you could make a list of dumps/tests you would like me to do that would be great

 

[albertino89]

this is efi folder

 

[albertino89]

@kgp the folder is correct ?

If I would know how to start with the proper native implementation of Skylake-X CPUs, I would be more relaxed and happy. If you really purchase same iMac Pro for some time, we will have to search for the needle in a haystack, I guess, unless the XEONs would be natively supported by default within the final release of 10.13.3.. Else, the currently seperate iMac Pro and XEON implementation has to be investigated up to the most tiny detail and discussed in between all experts.

Therefore, any fruitful ideas, suggestions or comments by others are highly appreciated and welcome.
