    macOS Big Sur Does NOT Boot with iMac14,2 System Definition

    My build is a Lenovo ThinkStation E20 (Desktop 3 in my signature): model 4220 / Xeon 3430 / GeForce GT 710 with Clover 5126 (updating to 5137 fails but that's another issue I guess) and Catalina 10.15.7 It's working great with Catalina with the iMac14,2 system definition. But, if I want to...

    macOS 10.15 Catalina is Now Available on the Mac App Store

    This was all I had to do to get past the issue on my HP EliteBook 8470p. Everything seems working now except Bluetooth.

    [Solved] updated to Clover 4700 and now my osx high sierra doesnt boot?

    I am on whatever version gets put on the Mojave USB stick when you build it with Unibeast. 4630 I think. I could not get 4700 to work after hours of trying. Probably some versions between the two would be ok but I'm fine for now.

    [Solved] updated to Clover 4700 and now my osx high sierra doesnt boot?

    Did you happen to make a bootable USB stick with Unibeast? Got another Mac you can use to do that if you didn’t already?

    [Solved] updated to Clover 4700 and now my osx high sierra doesnt boot?

    I just encountered this issue a couple hours ago on my newly-upgraded-to-Mojave machine. Will try the above suggestions and see if it fixes it, once I get booted back into the thing.

    Update Directly to macOS Mojave

    I just did that yesterday: I upgraded one of my Lenovo Thinkstation E20 (4222, Desktop 3 in my signature) from Sierra directly to Mojave. After install, it would not boot anymore. This is because I came direct from Sierra and forgot to take the steps to enable APFS boot. I was able to get it...

    [Solved] Installation Stops

    Thank you for the suggestions. Sometimes a thousand words are better than a picture. The problem went away after a few reboots.

    [Solved] Installation Stops

    I am booting the USB stick I created with UniBeast 9. It is now stuck on a screen with two alternating pictures. One looks like the side view of a laptop, and the other is an oval maybe the top panel of a MacPro? Both show a green switch and an arrow indicating it needs to be pushed in that...

    How to Create a macOS High Sierra Public Beta Installation USB

    OK, seems like it's working. All I did different this time was stop the Caching service on my local Sierra Server.

    How to Create a macOS High Sierra Public Beta Installation USB

    I have been trying exactly that. All I ever get is the 14.9MB stub installer.

    How to Create a macOS High Sierra Public Beta Installation USB

    So I tried to download the beta on my old Dell Studio 1535 running Yosemite. I don't want to actually install it there, that machine won't take even El Capitan, it barely runs Yosemite. Just get it downloaded and copy it somewhere. The download finished quick, way too quick. Looks like it just...

    How do I tell what version my OS X installers are?

    I have several "Install OS X..." applications that I've downloaded over the years and have on my archive. Unfortunately, when I downloaded them I did not note what the specific version numbers were. How do I find out without actually installing? For example, I have "Install OS X El Capitan.app"...

    What Router Do You Use?

    I came in this thread specifically to see if anyone else was using pfSense and found VioletDragon at the end of it. Great job. I built three of them and couldn't be happier. One at home, one at work replacing our old Netgear UTM which was at end-of-life, and one at the local library which I do...

    macOS 10.12.6 Update

    Update went well on all my systems but audio quit working on a couple of them, getting the latest VoodooHDA fixed that for me. Offtopic: How do I tell what actual sound hardware I have and which driver I *should* be using? Voodoo was just something I tried randomly after trying some of the...
