When you're in Disk Utility, make sure to set 'Veiw -> Show All Devices...' from the top menu bar. You should see all of the media items, containers, as well as the current volumes. The former items will permit you to erase/reformat or repartition a media item (USB stick, Hard drive, or SSD)...

FYI - I'm running Ventura using GB Z390m, I9, and an RX580 setup. I was able to install Ventura using OpenCore 0.9.7. It took me several weekends to upgrade from OC 0.7.9 -> 0.9.7. A boot USB drive (64 GB) was used to get OC upgraded and booting into my existing Monterey setup. My EFI was...

I did get the error line "OCS: No schema for SerialInit at 5 index, context <Degug>". That was fixed by removing the SerialInit entry in the .plist file.

Based on your experience I built a Monterey install USB with a 0.7.9 EFI. The install went very smoothly with only a couple of reboots. I selected the installer drive option until the Monterey disk became available. After that, a copy of the 0.7.9 EFI was copied to the Monterey disk to make it...

Tried these options, but they don't seem to have any affect. I'll try and record the 0.8.1 verbose data output and compare it against a 0.7.9 run to see where divergence occurs.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try them and report back. By Bluetooth module issue was an Apple laptop BT-only card (A1311) that had been plugged into a USB port using a custom adaptor. It worked fine on Mojave and Catalina, but it's presence caused Big Sur to immediately crash hard. If the...

pastrychef, Let me start by thanking your for the helpful OC EFI examples. Your OC examples allowed me to get Big Sur running on my system after countless hours of tinkering. I had literally given up on Big Sur until I discovered your thread. My GB 390m system is nearly identical to yours, but...

My system is running on 10.14.6 (18G4023), though I'm not exactly sure how it's running. I had put off doing updates to my stock Mojave installation because I couldn't afford to deal with issues. Recently I tried to update, thinking that I'd get to 103. Instead, my system upgraded directly to...

I believe the only changes to config.plist were to make sure that default arguments were set so they wouldn't have to be retyped. Look for the following line under boot arguments: ... <key>Boot</key> <dict> <key>Arguments</key> <string>dart=0 -no_compat_check</string> ...

9900K Blazing hot update - FIXED For Now My prior posts mentioned temperature issues. That's an understatement. My 9900K CPU trigger alarms under heavy load. After setting the temperature alarm in BIOS to 80 dec. C, the alarms would sound while running the CPU score in Cinebench 15. With 8...

I have nearly identical hardware, so you might read through my build notes. They are located here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/mojave-on-gigabyte-z390-m-gaming-with-i9-9900k-initial-success.283716/ The 970 EVO should work, but it may need to be reflashed and should be formatted prior to...

[ #7 *** Important ***Configure Clover startup options] Prior to selecting the Mojave USB drive, it’s good to hit the spacebar and set some of the options. First, enable the ‘Verbose’ mode so you can get some hints as to what was happing just before any errors occur. This is a great way to...

Although I’ve built CustoMac’s before, this latest build was extremely difficult to get working. It must have taken me nearly eighty attempts over a couple of weeks before a stable Mojave installation occurred. I actually had a system running a couple of times, only to watch it seeming...

My apologies for posting to an old thread, but since you haven't received a reply, I'll provide a description for the benefit of others who may read this. The fan in the MacPro case isn't really compatible with an Intel based motherboard. That being said, you can get it run with just a few...
