On my board, as I have 1 HDMI and 1 DP port, I had to add the following to Clover to override port 2 type and disable port 3 (the ig-platform-id I am using specifies 3 DP ports in the 'real' layout, for the iMac18,x family):

@tonymacx86 estimated time on UniBeast and MultiBeast release?

@ALL,

Update to release version of Mojave went without a hitch on my 2017 HP Spectre X360 Laptop.

I'm still not fully sold on APFS and wanted to to stick with HFS+ on my laptops NVMe SSD so I cloned my existing High Sierra 10.13.6 install to an external USB-C SSD using Carbon Copy Cloner, I then booted from the clone and performed a direct update to Mojave from the app store.

Once the Mojave update was complete and I was satisfied that everything was working ok I used CCC again to clone Mojave back on to the NVMe thus retaining HFS+ File System.

Whole process start to finish took around 2 hours ...

NVMe Read/Write Speeds are actually a little quicker than they where under High Sierra.



MacOS definitely feels a bit more snappier/quicker due to its use Metal 2 to render the GUI.

The only glitch i ran into is that VoodooI2C which i use to enable the 4K touch screen and active pen caused a KP during boot-up, so i had to remove to the two associated kext's from /L/E. Checking on the projects GitHub release page shows it's a known issue and Alex will be releasing an updated version of VoodooI2C in the near future which will be Mojave compatiable.

Cheers
Jay

The dark mode looks comically bad on a standard DPI display...

Agree. It needs more contrast, like a lighter grey in dialog headers....it's not that big of a deal to me.....

Now let's wait for NVIDIA to release the webdrivers for Mojave, if they decide to...

Install worked smoothly and quickly with no errors, contrary to the experience some have had. The only thing that's ~not~ working is audio. I usually use Toleda's audio_CloverALC script to install audio and this doesn't seem to work this time round. Any thoughts? From some reading I've done since I encountered the problem it seems to be Mojave doesn't support Coffee Lake audio (?) however I have only seen that referenced once.

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Don't understand why your installation of Mojave on your clone did not automatically change its file system to APFS. You did write that this was an external SSD, not external HD...

Installed successfully although there's a little bit of lag when selecting items on desktop. Everything works like a charm.

Ensure that you have Mojave downloaded to your hard drive using the App Store before you attempt the steps.

Are you saying that I have to have the Mojave Download on both the SSD that runs the system and the HDD that has my profile?

The SSD holds my OS and applications and my HDD has my longeterm data “user” data (Documents, pictures, video etc)

I have the 6GB file on the SSD under “Applications”. If I wanted to do a clean install of this how would I go about doing that instead of updated from HS to Mojave?
