Gigabyte Z490 Vision D (Thunderbolt 3) + i5-10400 + AMD RX 580

Still failing at upgrading to Sonoma from Monterey. The current tack I've been doing is taking the EFI (OC 7.4) out of my working Boot Disk and copying it into a USB install disk with Sonoma on it, and the use HackinDROM to update to 9.9. Everything seems to work, but then I get the black "NOT" screen on booting the installer.

Hi there.

If by that you mean the prohibited symbol - a circle with a line though it - then the most common cause of that is the USB port you are using becoming disabled during boot.

As you have no USB2 ports on the back-panel, the best ones to try are the two under the PS/2 port.

Ensure you are using a USB2 memory stick and that it is no bigger than 32GB in capacity.

If all that fails then you will need to edit the config.plist you are using. More on that later if needed.

:)

With macOS 14.4 we need to disable “SecureBootModel”. Please give that a try. When the upgrade is done we can change it back to “Default”.

Please confirm if this works. I’ll then update the Sonoma mini-guide.

Hi,

I see you have already updated the instructions as Trepamuros had a similar problem to me.

Unfortunately, I cannot find where to set SecureBootModel to Disabled. I have looked in config.plist in Misc/Security but its not obvious to me. Please advise.

Thanks.

Simply use the latest version of OpenCore Configurator and you'll find it here:

I'll add this screenshot to the mini-guide.
 
Thanks.

This section was not appearing. I must have used an older version of the Configurator.

Unfortunately I have set SecureBootModel to disabled but my partially upgraded Sonoma SSD (from CCC Backup of Ventura) is still in a reboot loop when I select macOS Installer from the Boot Picker Menu.

Should I attempt a clean install instead?

If you are using Intel WiFi then:
  • If you are installing Sonoma 14.0 through 14.3, it's necessary to use the 14.0 build of AirportItlwm
  • If you are installing Sonoma 14.4, it's necessary to use 14.4 build of AirportItlwm
... otherwise a boot loop will occur.
