Runi Can I get some help from you? I've been struggling to get an asus x299 build booting. I am about to give up on clover and try open core but it sounds like your experience might pull me back.

Thanks! I'll give them a try. And I appreciate the redirect. Asus x299 Support seemed pretty close, but x299 open core support is even closer.

Hi! Thanks for the note. I'm still a little confused. The MaciASL guide seems to be geared toward a machine that is in a booting state. I'm working with a new build. I've gotten the machine's tabulation of ACPI files using the Clover-F4 (attached earlier), but the DSDT.aml file that I find...

Hello x299-ers! I went through the guide for OpenCore 0.5.7 very carefully but I did NOT do my own ACPI decompilation, I borrowed from khronokernel's ASUS x299 build. I attach the results of my Clover-F4 probe. Is there any way someone with x299 experience could glance at this and point me in...

I can't seem to get my x299 asus tuf m2 past the doorstop stage. dreaded apfs every time. I'm at attempt #52. I'm looking into opencore. It seems that I will need to decompile all of my acpis because I'm not succeeding when I try to shortcut off of other posted x299 builds. I will approach...

Exciting! I'm very grateful for this help. I have a question. How will I know if the patched SSDT-EC has resulted in a good "EC" item? You suggest that it will show up in the IORegistryExplorer (I'm going to look for this) and if it does, this suggests the file is valid, right? It doesn't...

This is excellent intel. I will attempt with the new drivers. Given the nature of my hang, the prospect of an updated ApfsDriverLoader is encouraging. I'm really confused on the ACPI/patches/SSDT-EC.aml file. Is this going to be motherboard specific? Do I need to find help getting one...

Yes, the version I have been using is 10.1.0-4; I only noted the digits on the opening screen, I did use the help menu to locate the -4. The brand of the NVMe is the Sabrent Rocket model. I gave the NVMexpressDxe a try and the attempt to boot the installer failed much sooner, so I backed it...

It is an uninitialized drive awaiting formatting by the USB installer. Is this the problem? Do I need to install the OS on the NVMe first?

current CLOVER attached [Paraphrasing wstrohm suggestions CLOVER/kexts/10.15 folder into CLOVER/kexts/Other, done "VirtualSMC.kext", kept "FakeSMC.kext", deleted "nv_disable=1" removed "Inject Intel" unchecked I"AppleIntelCPUPM" now un-checked "Black Screen Patch" added "CSRActiveConfig"...

of course I missed the attachment in my confused state ...

I'm flummoxed. I attach the output of these two terminal commands below. ls -al /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/ and ls -al /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/* What on earth am I doing wrong?

I move the kexts from clover/kexts/10.15 to clover/kexts/other I'm still stuck on the same spot. I built another new usb, verified the bios settings with the same result as my first post. I attach the current EFI that is hanging. I also saw in another troubleshooting thread to have clover...

I think I've followed the applicable solutions that have worked for others in the category of "hangs on apfs 1689" I'm attaching the current EFI to see if someone can spot something obvious. Does anyone do consulting support? I would like to get over the hurdle.

I've chased three of the "solved" solutions this search turns up without discernible progress. Is there a troubleshooting mechanism that is less haphazard?
