    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    Thanks, i'll try a few older versions. i got no reply from the bug report thread i posted - i guess there's a lack of interest in anything that isn't Big Sur.

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    yes, i'm just collecting the logs. however, my question is still: "is there a thread that describes what multibeast is trying to do" as i couldn't find one. thanks

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    ok so today, i went through the build onto another kingston ssd - wouldn't boot via UEFI or legacy a seagate hard drive - which installed as a HFS+ so Multibeast failed. and finally a build onto a samsung evo 750, which again runs fine, just multibeast fails to install a working bootlaoder...

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    yeah - its the same job re-visited. sierra builds well. but HS and Mojave seem to hit a wall. last week, i somehow managed to get a UEFI to work, but when i tried to repeat the process from scratch i get nothing :-( you'd think cloning the EFI part across would work, but nope. not gonna tear my...

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    ok - went throught the buid process again, with a kingston ssd. its not the ssd - must be something wrong with the way multibeast was written :-(

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    I wasn't aware that there were problems with some ssd's - although i'm certainly suspecting it may the issue. The Good SSD is a kingston and the others are all ADATA. so i guess i'm going to have to find another few ssd to test. Reading up on Samsung Plus, they seem to be an NVM which i'm...

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    Hi UtterDisbelief thanks for responding. I've been building Hackintoshes using these guides since 10.6. I'm having no problems with the Install, and multibeast is adding the kexts i need for my system without problems. The only problem i'm having is my motherboard can't boot from my SSDs EFI...

    MultiBeast High Sierra not writing to EFI Partition

    I'm also finding Multibeast High Sierra is not working for me. maybe a less angry mod can help ? EFI partition is created and looks to have the correct files in it (compared to another High Sierra disk which is booting fine). So i'm wondering if something went wrong with the bless command ...

    "This copy of the Install macOS High Sierra application is damaged"

    I had the same issue with a previously downloaded installer that worked last year, but now says its damaged. A bit of googling said its the date. You need to set the unix date to a day or so after the date when you downloaded the installer from apple. I changed the date in my BIOS to a day...

    Fix/solution for "Selected Mac OS X Installer is incomplete"

    just incase anyone else gets this, the given command copies everything from the directory where you are, so its possible you forgot to: cd /macOS\ Install\ Data i got distracted and ended up running it from root dir ! i also ran into a permission denied problem - maybe just the way my machine...

    Still waiting for root device error

    Just for anyone else who got here at 1 a.m. - i encountered this message when trying to boot from a USB Boot Drive plugged into a USB3 port. Moving the drive to a USB2 port fixed the issue without any other fixes. I'm guessing that something in the boot sequence had re-labelled or disabled...

    USB Start-up Problem (aka the Audio problem)

    ah thanks for getting back to me, i don't use the HDMI audio (don't use the built-in audio either) just just don't like unsolved problems :-) i tried the ssdt-1 patch but the machine stuck in the spinning booting screen. verbose seemed to stop after the cpu definitions ssdt so maybe there's a...
