[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

[CaseySJ]

Re-reading the thread I think the last page shifts the discussions to Catalina reboot cleanup and may help with this post 10.15.4 cleanup. I'm back on 10.15.3 and may the whole process for a third time in just a bit, while the backup / restore is fresh on the mind.

Ideally we figure on to get the update to complete cleanly, short of that this may cover for now.

The combo update is installing itself at this very moment. Let’s see how it goes...

Oh I see. That is not right.

• What BIOS version are you running? Have you flashed the latest one?
• Do you have an nVidia GPU in the system?
• Are you using a single monitor or multiple monitors?
• Which RX 5700 XT do you have (which brand)?
• Which monitor do you have?
• Do you have any other operating systems installed (dual boot)?
  • If Windows or Linux is installed, does the computer start up and shutdown normally every time?

I'm using F8 Bios version (Designare Z390). I have to say that the same problem happens with the latest Bios version (F9b) ; As I told you I have the exact same configuration on my friend's computer which is on the F9b version.
I don't have any NVidia graphic card. Only using 1 Monitor at the moment. Will be Using two.
The monitor is a Dell one (Écran Dell 24 Ultra HD 4K : P2415Q | Dell Francewww.dell.com › ... › Moniteurs › Moniteurs)
My RX 5700XT is a Saphire one (https://www.sapphiretech.com/en/consumer/nitro-radeon-rx-5700-xt-8g-gddr6)
I Have Dual Boot. It doesn't change anything wether I'm using MacOs or WindowsOs.

Thank you Casey <3

Hey @CaseySJ , just followed your mini-guide, i'm using OpenCore 0.5.7.
I'm booted successfully with 5700XT.
But USB is missing ports, and no Thunderbolt. I've used all the SSDT's from your mini guide, but no USBPorts.kext as it it useless if the UIAC is correct right? using latest BIOS F9b.

Thanks for any help

Does your friend’s system behave the same way? Or is it normal?

Here is the folder, rebooting to check if this covered things....

It behaves the same way. The configuration is the exact same than I Have (I have setup his computer), otherwise I did F9b Flash Bios.

I have Plugged the 24pin ATX and the 8pin. Should I plug the 2x2 Pin also ? Or is it Useless and has nothing to do with that problem according to you ?
Thank you

How about just directly downloading the 10.15.4 combo update and running that?

I don't have the issue to be able to test it but logically it should work if it finishes the update cleanly.

This completely fixed the problem!

If you have already installed 10.15.4 and you're seeing extra or leftover Install macOS... boot volumes at the Clover Boot Menu, do this:

1. Download the 10.15.4 Combo Update. Click here. It's about 4.7GB.
2. Double-click the .dmg file and double-click the installer located inside.
   
3. After a little while you'll see the window below. Click Restart.
   
4. Be patient. The progress bar can move slowly and it may seem stuck. But just give it some time.
5. You should expect 2 restarts including the one triggered by you when you click Restart.

But it's very easy to create a Clover USB boot disk. Just follow the Catalina 10.15.4 Mini-Guide, Step 1, but skip bullet #3. You may then with the original SSDT-UIAC... or you may replace both the SSDT and USBInjectAll with USBPorts.

are you planning on migrating over to OpenCore for your Z390 Designare/RX 5700 XT build?

I updated with combo, 2 Hackintosh with no problem.

Glad it fixed the problem but that leaves me wondering if the smaller quicker, 10.15.3 -> 10.15.4 update, ie not the combo, would work as well. Maybe someone else who has the problem could try that first and let us know.
