Which type of internal drive did you use - SATA or PCIE?

I’m using a M.2 Kingspec NVMe at PCIe x2.

I’m using a M.2 Kingspec NVMe at PCIe x2.

Thanks for the feedback. Interesting!

Maybe the PCIE controller solves a problem that I ran into using a SATA drive on Signature/300 Series-1

There was quite a bit of discussion with vit9696 about problems with SATA drives on GitHub:

SATA Controller not being recognized

Some of the screenshots in this post look eerily like mine when the installer could not see the target drive.

Not sure of how this has been handled in newer MBs but the only downside to using an NVMe (NOT to be confused with the M.2 SATA variety) in my Z270 system has been that it will automatically disable 2 SATA lanes for each NVMe slot occupied - of which I only have my Monterey boot drive (WD Black 500GB) installed in the 1 of 2 that my Gigabyte board comes equipped with. I tried it with both once with my Win 10 system but apparently my ADATA NVMe didn't like that demeaning duty and promptly became locked in Read-Only mode.

I am trying to install Ventura Public Beta 3 on my backup drive which is currently running macOS Monterey 12.5, but keep getting the error in the attached screen shot.

I am using OpenCore 0.8.3 and my config.plist is using iMac 17,1 but when I click on About This Mac it reads iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015). I know Ventura requires at lease iMac 17,1 so do you think this is the problem. I have triple checked and all the platform info is correct?

Skylake has been dropped, use iMac18,1 instead

Thanks for the assist. Worked perfectly.

So much for my theory about the SATA controller - using a WD SN750 internal drive makes no difference - the Ventura beta installer still fails to see the target (WD NVMe) drive on my build with OC 0.8.2. Must be time for 0.8.3.

Alternatively go through your current config line by line to make sure you are not enabling or disabling the wrong entry. As that is more likely to be the cause of not seeing the partition than using the wrong OC release.

This is the section on missing macOS partitions from the OC troubleshooting guide.



The UEFI > APFS > MinDate & MinVersion entries are more likely to cause an issue if they are not set to '0', which enables APFS for Big Sur, Monterey and Ventura. Using '-1' is not normally recommended.

Upgraded from a cloned working Monterey 12.4 to 13.0 Ventura public beta but networking ain't working

Tried to install SmallTreeIntel8259x.kext in /Library/Extensions just in case, reboot but nothing.

Intel® X550-AT2 Dual 10GbE.

Anyone knows how this could be fixed? Just in case.

Thanks.

Hi, I just Updated All Kext & OC on this link : https://dortania.github.io/builds/ (OC, Lilu, VirtualSMC, Whatevergreen, BRCM) and also updated airportintel with Ventura Alpha version : https://github.com/OpenIntelWireles...tItlwm-Ventura-v2.2.0-DEBUG-alpha-d9f1294.zip it works form me, mine used AX210 Intel Wifi Card.
