@macandrea
Do you have a createInstaller.sh for MacOS 10.13.3 (17D2047) ?

The verbose mode tells me that "this version of mac os is not for this hardware" .....
Thanks for any help

I have all versions of createInstaller.sh and also the one for MacOS 10.13.3 (17D2047), as in fact it is me permanently modifying the script over all recent macOS releases.

It won't help you with MacOS 10.13.3 anyway, as MacOS 10.13.3 is not anymore available on swdist.apple.com

Okay
Thank you
I have no clue how to download the iMac Pro MacOS 10.13.3 installer
The regular MacOS 10.13.3 installer with your EFI-X299-10.13.3-Release-iMacPro1,1-200218 won't boot the Installation USB drive.
Thanks for the help.

And how should I know know why the USB Flash Drive installer does not boot in your case? You can even take the actual EFI-Folder and it should boot at least also with MacOS 10.13.3..

I though that you EFIs distribution were only for the iMac Pro Installer (created by createInstaller.sh). Am I wrong ?

And how should I know know why the USB Flash Drive installer does not boot in your case?

May be you know the différence between the iMacPro MacOS installer and the regular MacOS installer.
There is something I still don't understand.
I keep searching.
Thanks

Is all this is just for modifying the ASUS Aquantia 10GB NIC Firmware, it does not matter if you use the standard or special iMacPro macOS 10.13.3 build.

Hi KGP!

Few days ago I bought a Sapphire RX Vega 64 vga and I changed the GTX 980Ti. Uninstall the web driver, everything is working fine, inclued sleep/wake. Happy with the system, only one thing left. I updated the system to 10.13.6 (17G3025) and I updated the USB limit kext patch. But for some reason, I have some USB, witch does not work at all. What did I miss?

I attached my EFI folder here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IbQWnNFiTtvLSErX715kgFH1Vso6eTWr

Really appreciate your help guys!
