    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    To follow up for future reference to others, the 'installer resources' issue was resolved via updating to the most recent version of El Capitan before re-attempting to update directly to High Sierra, which then meant the full 5Gb version was downloaded straight away (rather than via the terminal...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    To follow up... Re-did the update files to get past that issue... then loaded into the "An error occurred while loading the installer resources" issue... sorted my Serial number (and related) bits... gave up trying to go down the upgrade route, and instead used my UniBeast USB with High Sierra...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    Huzzah! :D Thank you P1lgrim! :clap: I'm going to have a compare to see if I can understand what the difference was for future reference (and will post on here in case others need to search for it). Admittedly, I'm now at 'macOS could not be installed on your computer' / 'The installer...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    Thanks for you help with this P1lgrim, it is hugely appreciated! Just tried that config.plist (without NullCPUPowerManagement) - still loads my existing El Capitan install fine, but when trying the High Sierra macOS update, I'm getting: And with non-reboot flag (debug=0x100) turned on: Still...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    Found another possible option to Drop Tables, mentioned here https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/kernel-panic-on-high-sierra-installation.233227/ - but I loaded Clover Configurator with config.plist and there is nothing listed in the Drop Tables grid... Starting to feel like I'm at a loss...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    Found another third party site about my motherboard... Made the following change / checks: M.I.T. > Advanced Frequency Settings > Advanced CPU Core Features > CPU EIST Function = Disabled No change. Reverting back. Also confirmed that: My Corsair RAM (CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9B) does support Intel...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    [I'm talking out loud here so I've got a record of my thought process in case I get distracted by work stuff mid-way though...] I think I'm stumped again... excessive searching the TonyMac forum, and Googling, is only bringing up other Kernal Panic issues where the DiskImages kext has loaded...

    [Solved] Boot Flags - El Capitan to High Sierra - Anything changed? Update sticks on Apple Logo.

    Thanks P1LGRIM! Ok, I think I've got past that hurdle... Doing screenshots of it with (NullCPUPowerManagement) in place (in the 'EFI\Clover\kexts\Other' folder) : and without: I've realised I was seeing it in both 'last loaded kext' and 'loaded kexts' before and after, not spotting they were...

    Bootloader (Chameleon) no-longer working following Windows 10 upgrade on Dual Boot

    Quick background, did a custom build (using tonymac recommended components) over 4 years ago, and originally had a triple boot set-up using these instructions: http://bigfloppydonkeydisk.blogspot.co.uk/2010/07/triple-boot-windows-7-mac-os-x-snow.html - with all working fine having used...

    What will Apple do with Macs and OS X in 2013?

    Same thing as they have been doing for the past 5 years or so I'd guess, milk it like the cash cow that it is, and put as minimal investment in it as possible to keep them looking pretty to get people to keep buying them.

    42% of PC upgraders plan to buy a Mac or iPad instead of Windows 8

    While I agree that Microsoft has lost it's edge, that survey is a VERY poor attempt to look at the wider 'Computer' market. There are two thoughts I have on this: 1. The basic users I have a PC right now, as I imagine the majority of this forums users (whether that be a Windows / Mac /...
