[Stable] Nicoras' Mac: H370M Bazooka + Vega 56 | OpenCore-based

[esapode688]

Has anyone succeeded having the same config with NVMe Drive ?

My Config:

- i7-8700
- Samsung 970 EVO 250GB (with latest firmware)
- Sapphire Pulse RX 580 4GB
- MSI Bazooka H370M
- 16GB Crucial DDR4 2666 MHz

Built UniBeast installer USB with Mojave 10.14.6, plugged into a USB 3 port, downgraded BIOS to .10, selected UEFI in the BIOS, Disabled Windows 10 support, Applied the NVME FIX (as described here _. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...-vega-64-updated-10-14-6.275272/#post-1940477 )

Booting Mojave installer in Verbose mode, it gets stuck at "using 16384 buffer headers and 10240 cluster IO buffer headers"

Haven't really tried that. The best I thing to do is blast a question to the problem reporting forum!

I've gotten Catalina 10.15.2 Installed and working

Things I'm trying to fix:

- USB 3, I can't seem to find the SS ports while testing and looking at IOReg
- For some strange reason, at every reboot I get "couldn't allocate runtime area" and I need to retry 3 times before getting it to boot

Merry Christmas everybody!

Has anyone got a USB kext for this motherboard ?

Hello, I have a question about the motherboard. Actually I do have your same processor (i5 - 8400), except that I own the MSI H370 Gaming Pro Carbon. Do you think that using your EFI folder makes me able to run Mojave / Catalina? And... unfortunately I’m on iGPU atm, Sold my 1060 recently and will buy RX 5700 XT. Anyways, I’ve tried to make it boot multiple times messing up with configs etc... can’t get to the installation screen as after the verbose boot everything turns black (but the PC does not restart or stop). Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Hi mates, I just tried to update my Hackintosh Mojave to Catalina but it crashed. Now I am trying to install from 0 but all my tries end with no success.
I used UniBeast 10.0 to create a USB bootable, I used the EFI version 1 (the one I used with mojave and it worked fine) but I have got 2 problems:
- The install option is doesn't appear, just REINSTALL (see the picture one)
- I do not know why after some tries, I cannot choose my Samsung M2 Evo SSD to format in Disk Utility; I don't know what did I do wrong.
I also tried the EFI v3 for catalina version but, It must be wrong because is not recognise from clover, I cannot choose the option "install catalina from usb catalina"


Please any help???

Is there any problem with EFI folder for catalina? (it is not recognise by installing it)

Any suggestion?
