Asus X299 - Catalina Support

[BluewaterVA]

If you’re using the EFI folder and Lilu kexts in Post 1, you don’t need the Lilu flag. You’ll still need the tsc kext and update the serial number, board serial number, and smuuid using Clover Configurator.

Do I need to enable the 3 USB Port Limit Patches as KGP instructed?

Personally I would use the 15 port limit kext on his github for your board. That way you don’t have to deal with patches every time a new update comes out.

ASUS all the way to anyone wondering. They have the best BIOS and less prone to buggy BIOS like with Gigabyte.

I'm sure ASROCK etc will be fine, but best is to not waste extra time troubleshooting BIOS issues.

Prime Deluxe I and II are very similar, except II has more/better VRM and stock heatpipes that Prime I did not initially. Have not tested TB3 yet.

Have no experience with Sage 10G.

I created my Bootloader for Catalina but it will not load? I used new files from post 1.

Clover comes up, i select install Catalina, a script runs and an ACPI Error occurs, computer screen turns into unreadable trash?

I humbly ask for anyones help, thanks

here's my config.plist

Way @kgp Stopped with the guides?

And why do you wish him "all the best!"
Did something happen to him?


I'm from 2016 interacting with him and I'm sure so many others
And with the utmost seriousness I worry about him

Does anyone know what happened?


And if he just stopped doing Hackintosh
It 's okay too ... just let us know that everything' s okay

I think he just stopped doing hackintosh or wanted a break. We don't really know.

He told me he wanted a break. Not to worry...he's OK.

Anyone using any kind of fan control for Catalina?

He's okay, just has things that need to be attended to and the forum threads were just too much to handle right now.....don't know if he'll be back or not...
