[Success] b1's "Mac Mini Killer" with macOS Mojave: i7-8700 | Gigabyte Z370N | RX560 | 16GB RAM

Mark, did you happen to save or write down that error message?

I'm afraid not. I didn't boot with verbose mode and when it stuck all I wanted was to recover. Going back to F10 even didn't work for me and I had to restore the entire disk from backup.

It's fascinating that the ASUS fail was relatively simple (once found). Fingers crossed :)
 
I had some problems with 14.4.4 update. Nothing happens after the first reboot and then Hack boots to 14.4.3.

But, I find the solution. You need to set BIOS ▸ Security option to Setup. After update you can set it back to System.

Let me know, you have the same problem.

@xmark @inarush Today I spent one hour with F11 BIOS, but no luck. Hack doesn't want to boot with F11. I tried a lot of different options…

Thanks a lot for giving it a try @b166ar. Did you have the chance to write down the error message? With that error message, we might start asking people here at the forum to try to find an answer.

Thanks for the hint, it is greatly appreciated!

Was that the only error you got? I wonder if the next Clover will get this solved without having to change any BIOS settings.
 
I just upgraded to Mojave with this board, using an NVMe boot drive. Only two of the SATA ports are showing my disks however.

If I go back to my high sierra boot disk, all is working as expected. Has anyone experienced this or have an idea of something special required for mojave?

Edit: I upgraded bios to F10 to match the github guide, and the first boot, the disks showed up. Subsequent reboots only show two disks...

(To state the obvious: All disks show in BIOS.)

Thanks a lot :thumbup: But OMG they've updated again :rolleyes: ... so much work to do (try BIOS, upgrade OSX, kexts, Clover) I need a holiday!

WTF :) Ok, I will try it today.

Are you talking about internal disks? Check Disk Utility. Maybe macOS didn't mount them correctly.

Yes, internal spinning rusk disks. I have 4 x SATA on the motherboard and 2 x SATA on a PCI-E card.

It is not an issue of mounting, the disks do not show up in diskutil list.

I looked again and in fact, the two disks on the PCI-E card show up, but the motherboard SATA ports do not.

That said, I have had two random occurrences where Mojave has loaded all the disks. Rebooting with the same config and they do not reappear.

Edit: On my High Sierra the disks are connected to "Intel 10 Series" but this does not show on my Mojave install, which shows "Intel 20 Series" and no disks attached.

Where do I go from here?
