Hello,
This is my first hackentosh build and running into an issue where I cannot get past the the initial apple boot screen (Apple logo & status bar).
I have tried using the three different ASRock Bios available with no such luck
V1.10 - Status bar barley moves forward then stops and does nothing
V1.20 - Status bar will hit completion does nothing
V1.30 - Status bar will hit completion does nothing
Attempts using all three bios firmware options have been made using:
- the standard Mojave UniBeast boot drive
- A configured boot drive from a (I am supposing) similar ITX version of this motherboard found here https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-asrock-z390-phantom-gaming-itx-ac-i9-9900k-rx-580.268992/
(so total of 6 attempts (in reality much more but I digress))
The standard boot disk works fine on an older machine I have so I KNOW it has to do with the MOBO/bios settings. I just don't know what the heck is going wrong...
If anyone has any suggestions for a relatively "problem free" MoBo I am all ears... I don't mind returning this and spending some extra $$, just needs to be able to run Mojave.
