I saw RegabMan's recommendation to use carbon copy cloner to just copy a APFS container to an HFS_J+ one, and low and behold it worked perfectly. Luckily, my boot NVME SSD was less than 50% full, so the steps were simple: 1. Create a new HFS partition on the boot disk 2. Copy over all data to...

Is there any hope of disabling TRIM on APFS drives in the future with a kext or something or is it too low level? Ideally I could have the speed of an NVME, the niceties of APFS, but skip the boot time required for TRIM

<moved>

Hmm, so I may be better off just booting off a slower, non-NVME SSD formatted with HFS+J If I then stored my applications and documents on the NVME would that be fine with boot or will boot be slowed just because of the presence of an NVME even if it isn't being used as the boot drive.

Is it enabled for HFS+ too?

Hey RehabMan, thanks for your contribution to the community. I have the latest high sierra build on an NVME drive with APFS. I read that TRIM is permanently enabled on these drives with APFS, which may be a big factor in my 2-3 minute boot time. I'm now thinking about whether it is worth the...

Can confirm -v and debug=0x100 displays the errors well. Because of it I was able to find my boot problem in this thread https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/boot-failure-sometime-prohibited-sign-couldnt-allocate-runtime-area.194452/page-3 And fix using seanparkerfilms' recommended solution using...

When I boot, about half the time at the apple logo it'll immediately switch to a cross. I then have to reboot and try again. It usually works the second time, but occasionally I have to try a third time (it also occasionally works the first time). I'm trying to find out what's going wrong here...

VoodooHDA.kext2.8.9 worked for me for line out, but I couldn't get it to output to the rear speakers as well (I have 4 speakers although technically my sound card supports 7.1). With the method suggested by @RomanoSoprano here (see section on audio) I was able to get both the rear and front...

I also found a semi solution to the sleep wake problem. If you set your Mac to never sleep in power settings, then, if you leave it for a while, instead of doing a hardware sleep it will just do a display sleep. This kind of sleep I found doesn't crash the system, but does make the screen become...

Download "Clover Configurator" if you don't already have it. In the drivers section they have that driver under the 64 bit section. Just make sure you mount your EFI partition and select in in the drivers screen.

I tried setting sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 25 and putting my mac to sleep. It turned off as expected, but when I booted back up I got to the clover screen and my OSX boot partition was missing! I had to reinstall the OS which was quite the hassle. Not sure if this would happen to someone else...

Couldn't get it working until I saw this and installed EmuVariableUefi-64. Works perfectly now, thanks a bunch!

As in, I left my ig-platform-id as 0x00000000 For the record though it also works with 0x19120000 and IntelGFX=19168086

Okay wow it just started working again, same ig-platform-id and no frame buffer patch. The only thing that I can think of that might have fixed it is that instead of just shutting down after the screen goes black, I decided to let it go and then enter my password hoping the computer was working...

I accidentally entered hibernate mode and couldn't boot into OS X so I had to reinstall. Unfortunately, after reinstalling I'm having the same bug where my monitor goes black 3/4 of the way through boot. I did the following steps: 1. Install via clover guide using fakecpuid 2. Set IntelGFX to...

I've finished all the basic clover setup for my new hackintosh and am now trying to tackle sleep/wake. If I leave my mac too long it goes into hardware sleep. The fans turn off and the power LED starts blinking. Windows does this too and it seems like a nice power saving feature. Unlike windows...

Wait, now it's working. Maybe I just didn't try booting enough times. I think the CoreDisplay patch did it. Thanks for the help! Now off to fix the menu bar glitch.

Okay so I applied the CoreDisplay patch here: https://github.com/Floris497/mac-pixel-clock-patch-V2 and I am still getting the black screen with the 4k display, and everything working fine on the 1080p display. I am using a DP cable, is this the frame buffer connector patch you're referring to...

Sorry, I had it disabled so I could boot, but when I enable it it just gives a black screen. Currently I have it disabled by default, when I need to test it I just enable it manually in the clover boot screen settings. As for the pixel clock patch, I found some tutorials but they seemed to be...
