    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    @Shad0wWalk3r have you been successful with the macOS install on the x260? I'm still struggling with boot issues here, would you mind sharing your clover folder so I could check against mine, what you did different? Did you make the move to Sierra yet?

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    This boot is actually post install. I could install sierra just fine with the stick that unibeast created. The problems occur when I try to boot from internal HDD via Clover stick. Hopefully I've got some time on my hands this weekend to continue. Cheers

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    Thanks again for your time, I have no clue as to why the boot process now continues, I can get past the DSMOS has arrived (without changing anything). I now get some graphics driver issues, same error with and without GraphicsEnabler=No. (I'm using the bogus id, is that a problem?) I have just...

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    Yeah it definitely does. Disabling some devices in BIOS got me rid of some more warnings. Now the boot log looks pretty normal except for a "Failed to open swapfile 30". When I wait for quite a while (3+ min or so) on the "Waiting for DSMOS" line, I also get some additional timeouts: kauth...

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    Hey, thanks for the answer. I just rechecked that and it is started. Posted a screenshot of the early boot. Some more details in case this is important, which I just remembered: When I installed sierra on HDD setup went through completely and finished with a "couln't install macOS on the...

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    Hi, I wanted to document the Thinkpad x260 here a bit, for ppl who might be interested. The model I use is the i7 6500U with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. It has the Intel 520 graphics and a 1080p panel. BIOS settings, load optimized defaults, then: Config -> Display -> Total Graphics Memory: 512MB...

    Waiting for Root Device after BIOS reset

    Hi, I "fixed" the problem by creating a new USB drive with the latest version of Clover. I used only the nv_drv=1 boot flag. I then just copied the new Clover over my old partition and put my old kexts back in. Everything now works again,... I don't really see how this fixed the "problem" but...

    Waiting for Root Device after BIOS reset

    Hey, thanks for the reply. This is really strange. I don't have any settings for serial ports in my BIOS, although this post https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/easy-success-10-11-5-on-asus-z170-viii-ranger-6700k-gtx-970-nvme-950-pro.193335/ suggests that they should be there. I also searched...

    Waiting for Root Device after BIOS reset

    Hey, I had to reset my BIOS (v2.17.1246) because my mainboard didn't want to power on again. The build is an Asus Maximus Ranger VIII with a Skylake i5, a Geforce 980 and 16GB RAM. I put the BIOS settings back to the way they were before, respectively: - Secure Boot: Off - CFG Lock: Off -...

    Thinkpad x260 waiting for DSMOS

    Hi, I just installed OSX on the Thinkpad, its a Skylake 6600u, 16GB ram. I created the install medium on my Hackintosh desktop running 10.11.6 with Unibeast 6.2. Installation went through without additional steps, except I had to use an externel keyboard and mouse. I was using the installation...

    Hi DGTech, are you running a NVIDIA graphics card or using the outs on the mainboard? For me dual screen (display port and hdmi) work after installing the web drivers from nvidia and enabling the card in the boot cmd line. Cheers

    Hi, src for no updates but I didn't have any time the last weeks to work on the setup. So far so good. OS X is now up and running on internal HDDs. I didn't have the latest BOIS installed. Feel a bit silly since this is such an obvious error. For WiFi I use a Sitecom 2000 Stick wich...

    [Success] Skylake Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, i5-6600, GTX 1070 (Clover/High Sierra)

    Hi, thanks for the pointers. I tried your clover folder, sadly to the same result as before. No SATA devices found. Also I remade my boot stick again to be sure to have the latest versions on it. I was using Unibeast to create the stick then copying your clover folder over to the EFI partition...

    [Success] Skylake Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, i5-6600, GTX 1070 (Clover/High Sierra)

    Hey, thanks for the update on the .config. I think the nvdisable did the trick, although I'm still not sure why I could boot into the system when I attached the HDD to the USB, it didn't complain about graphics issues then xD. I get stuck now at 'Still waiting for root device', which is...

    [Success] Skylake Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, i5-6600, GTX 1070 (Clover/High Sierra)

    I hooked the HDD to the internal SATA of my desktop now and was using the clover from the usb install drive to boot the HDD. I get stuck at boot with no real error message (apart from the IntelMousi which also didn't work when I had the HDD in the USB case) and after that the screen turns to...
