    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    I'm ready to perform my upgrade this weekend. Do you still recommend using a SATA SSD over an NVME SSD?

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    I was thinking I might upgrade to 10.12 but I want to get the driver for my Pegasus J4 working first on the hackintosh (works great on my iMac compared to the last year of trouble with the old driver). What is the best method for getting third party drivers detected at boot (necessary for...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    I quite agree, but it is nice to have RAID utility back even if they have hidden it. I have no problem using cli but diskutil has no flag for setting stripe size which is pretty crappy for software RAID. Thankfully Promise has delivered a new driver for a legacy device, other than that, I see...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    I doubt anyone else here bought into the very expensive Pegasus J4 three years ago but they are issuing a new driver soon to fix the kernel panic problem. Then I will at least be able to run Sierra on my iMac while I wait for the NVMe driver to improve. Hopefully more Skylake Macs in 10.12.1...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    Reading TonyMac's post this morning I realized my mistake yesterday and previously. On reboot after install you need to select boot without cache in clover screen. I just restored my iMac to 10.11.6 to get my Pegasus working again for video editing and I will attempt again to upgrade my...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    I had no success installing sierra as it just reboots after install into 10.11.6. Perhaps it is a blessing in disguise as my iMac kernel panics with my Pegasus J4 or locks up. I cannot get the Pegasus to be recognized nor my Little Big Disk but I did get it to see a LaCie Thunderbolt Drive today...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    Nuc6i7kyk w/ 32 GB RAM 512 GB 950 Pro + Crucial mx300 (W10) + Startech Thunderbolt adapter. My iMac shows up over a thunderbolt network in windows but nothing in macOS. I couldn't install the Golden Master a couple weeks ago. Does App Store upgrade work now? Sierra seems really buggy on my iMac...

    [Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

    Thank you for your guide. It was very easy to follow and explains why I couldn't use my default el capitan usb to install. Has anyone had any luck with 10.11.6 or Sierra GM using Windows TB flash tools to get Thunderbolt devices recognized? Also, I thought the W10 reboot trick would enable the...

    Hackintosh for 4K Raw editing

    My budget was nowhere near your friends but I have been able to edit 4k 10bit uncompressed for 5 months now (whenever I have free time to organize all my gopro footage). You have to run Yosemite to use the web drivers for Maxwell cards. I heavily emphasize IO as you will need as close to1 GB/s...

    OS X 10.10.3 Supplemental Update released

    I installed the update and then applied the driver. I'm not sure if you could install it in the reverse order (prob doesn't matter since this is not a point release updated driver). I do know that I had problems viewing my FCPX (version 10.2) timeline with uncompressed 10 bit 4k30 footage in...

    New Nvidia Web Driver 346.01.01f01

    Same for me on ub408000. I just bought it a few weeks ago for viewing screen in FCPX and am happy that this issue was fixed while I was on vacation. Also glad Nvidia is giving a nod to hackintosh community now by supporting clover/chameleon automatically. Will definitely wait a bit to update to...

    Security Update 2015-003 Breaks NVIDIA Web Driver Again

    Thanks for the fix! I was really annoyed because I just got lg 40" 4k b8000 to pair with my EVGA GTX 970 and on top of the HDMI port not doing 4k60 I dealt with the fallout from this install (had no problems with Security update 002) Hopefully nVidia will eventually support this card on Macs...

    Security Update 2015-003 1.0

    OSX Security Update 2015-003 1.0 Of course I did it like I an idiot because I had no issues with the last security update. Definitely regretting this as I just got a 40" 4k60 TV/Monitor (My Seiki would never work with the 970) If you change the definition as outlined here...

    OS X 10.10.2 Update

    I was in the same camp. There is an updated kext in Mac 5,1 and 6,1 that has some sort of issue. If you use 3,1 you won't have that problem but you will need to use safe mode to get past your cache.

    OS X 10.10.2 Update

    If you can boot into safe mode than rerun multibeast with you appropriate settings. From there your cache should rebuild so you can get past this (you can have this error and still boot properly so its not a showstopper)

    OS X 10.10.2 Update

    I haven't run any benchmarks, but I do run Final Cut X and I have noticed just when creating special effects (I store files 4k as is Cineform on RAID 0 SSD array so I can touch up i in GoPro software as needed) and the FX requires the files to be rewritten on the fly. Before this could take...

    OS X 10.10.2 Update

    Most importantly, make sure your system definition in your chimera boot loader is Mac Pro 3,1 as 5,1 has many issues. I had the devil of a time upgrading this one and it had everything to do with kernel caches. I really think you need kernel cache to run Yosemite, I need it especially for a...

    [Success] SynGatesFan200s Intel NUC DC3217BY Thunderbolt Edition/Non-Thunderbolt edition

    I've been using it for several months now with Mavericks, haven't had an issue, although there is a slight delay upon reboot for networking to take effect.

    SL 10.6.8 installation in HP DV6 6121tx lappy-Help required

    Hello, I have the dv7, but almost same specs. You will get kernel panic after 10.6.8 combo update and multibeast. As long as you have removed IOPCI...kext/ACPIPlatform before update, you won't have power issue, then you must use kernel flags cpus=1 busratio=20, unless you modify kernel. Here is...
