About
As many others are having issues even getting past the installation of High Sierra on the 9570, I've decided to put together this guide.
Device Specs
Model: XPS 9570 (1080p)
CPU: i5 8300h
Graphics: Intel UHD 630, Nvidia (optimus) GTX 1050 MaxQ
Memory: 8GB
Storage: NVME & PCIE SATA SSDs
Working
1. Create Bootable USB
Please see other forum guides for how to create a bootable USB using Unibeast.
2. Disable Nvidia GPU
The below DSDT/SSDT file will prevent the Nvidia GPU from being started. Copy the file to /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched on the EFI partition of your bootable USB drive.
SSDT-Disable_DGPU.aml
3. Prepare Kexts
The following kexts should be copied to /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other
Copy the following files to /EFI/Clover/drivers64UEFI
Copy the attached config.plist to the /EFI/clover/ directory.
