asrock z390m pro 4 install freeze

I second this recommendation - I also use OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi with no issues.

ok, dont know why, but there was 1 setting in bios wrong. than since the change the keyboard wasn't working anymore. did a cmos reset, made the settings and add OsxAptioFix2Drv-free2000.efi and worked!
ssd erased, then os installed. after rebooting now in clover, i guess HFS (boot from ssd) is the right one.
or should i made changes right now for using win on a sata hdd?

i did the install process, should i change the primary graphic to onboard? i want to use the nvidia on windows.
next step would be installing missing things with multibeast?
i made a screenshot of the "about this mac" window. it shows a model of 2013, does this improve the performance (or should i change the mac model config)??

Congratulations for making it this far!

Your iGPU (Intel UHD630) is operating with Apple's default VGA driver. That's why your screenshot shows graphics card has 7 MB memory. The Device ID of this graphics processor is 0x3E98, which is not currently supported by MacOS.

If you want to use full acceleration with the iGPU, then you will have to spoof the Device ID to 0x3E9B and change your ig-platform-id to 0x3E9B0007 (and install Lilu + WhateverGreen). But in this case there will be no video output from the iGPU.

At this time, the best solution for owners of 9th Gen Intel CPUs is to use an AMD RX 570/580 or AMD Vega video card for display, and use the iGPU in "compute mode" or "headless mode" to perform Quick Look, Preview, HEVC, H.264, etc.

i don't wanna use OSX for video, only for audio production, so i can keep it in this way, right?
should i made changes in multibeast (drivers?), what type of mac in the system definitions?
clover boot mode & emulated nvram?

Yes you can continue to use non-accelerated iGPU graphics, but you will encounter some (cosmetic) graphics glitches. For example, try opening 2 or more tabs in Safari. You will find the Tabs themselves to be glitchy. More importantly, however, Quick Look and Preview will not work. If you single-click an image file in Finder (a JPEG or PNG) and press Spacebar to invoke Quick Look, you will most likely see an empty window.

For SMBIOS Mac Definition, I would suggest Macmini8,1.

For emulated NVRAM, first check if Shutdown and Reboot work. If they don't work, then install EmuVariableUEFI-64 using MultiBeast (MultiBeast will run Clover) so follow the 3 Clover screenshots I posted here.

Also install AppleALC kext for Audio and see if motherboard audio Inputs and Outputs are recognized in Preferences --> Sound or in About this Mac --> System Report --> Audio.

And, of course, because of the USB issues, it would be highly recommended to create a custom SSDT for USB.

reboot works until i install multibeast. EmuVariableUEFI-64 was already in the installer stick. i try to to your instruction for clover.. thank you, so far

done it like in your guide but this let it crash and do not boot anymore.
so i made all steps again, but this time i tried another guide:

i installed latest clover with customized settings:

check the box of UEFI.only
Target.ESP is selected already
Driver64UEFI:
APFS
OSxAptiofix2Drvfree2000-64
PartitionDxe-64
AppleImageCodec-64.UEFI
AppleKeygenerator-64.UEFI
AppleUITheme-64.UEFI
DataHubDxe-64.UEFI
FirmwareVolume-64.UEFI
Fsinject-64.UEFI
VboxHfs-64.UEFI and sata kext(i tried it this time to install on seperate sata hdd)

did a restart, plug the installer stick out, bootet from mojave sata drive.

then:
Open Clover Configurator
Mount the EFI of the Flash Drive
Press Open EFI or navigate to the EFI location in finder
Copy the EFI Folder onto your desktop
Open Finder and Eject the Flash Drive
Using Clover Configurator Mount the EFI of the Disk you just installed Mac OS on
Press Open EFI or navigate to the EFI location in finder
Paste the EFI over the existing EFI on the disk
Select Merge when its aying that the folder EFI already exists.

restart.
again in clover configurator:
changed smbios mac model to 8,1 (macmini mid2018)
then added to mounted efi partition:
FakeSMC.Kext
RealtekRTL8111.Kext
shiki.kext.
lilu.kext.

multibeast install:
remove xhci usb port limitation, enable 7/8/9 series USB support, core graphics whatevergreen, coffee lake

restart. all done.
IM VERY HAPPY that the customac is running!!!!!!!

i made 2 user settings in bios, for win and for mac, connected 1 of 2 monitor to onboard and nvidia (to avoid changing cable everytime nec. of loading other graphic setting bios ).

AUDIO, LAN, USB, SATA (ntfs) ect everything is working. graphic recognized,
but in "about this mac" it shows only 7mb intel uhd 630. is there a solution for that??

 

[CaseySJ]

Good job! Some of our suggestions won't work exactly as we state them, so it's nice to see that you did your own follow-up research and found a solution that works for you.

Try: Clover Config -> Graphics -> Inject Intel & ig-platform-id -> 0x3E920003

Most likely this will also blank out video from the UHD 630. The iGPU on 9th Gen Core CPUs is quite difficult to configure. If a discrete GPU (AMD RX or Vega) is used, then both 0x3E920003 and 0x3E9B0007 will work fine, allowing the iGPU to be fully accelerated but with no display output. When the accelerated AppleIntelFramebuffer attaches to this iGPU, it seems to disable video output, but when the default framebuffer attaches, we get video output, but it's not accelerated.
