Hello everyone.
I hope you’re all having a good day.
I’m trying to do a clean install on MacOS Catalina 10.15.5. But I’ve not been able to even boot into the USB installer.
My System Specs are:
_ASUS X99 Deluxe II
_intel i7 6950X Broadwell-E
_AMD RX 5700 XT Anniversary edition
_128GB of DDR4 RAM @ 2400MHz
_ASUS Thunderbolt Card
_Bootloader Clover r5119 (latest version)
_The drive I’m trying to install to is a NMVE Samsung 950 Pro
I’ve been trying for a couple of days as I was having some issues relating to the Memory Fix (AptioMemoryFix). But I solved those by changing the FakeCPU in my config.plst. I actually don’t know if it was that that fixed it since it’s together with a million other things I tried including trying to change boot loader to OpenCore. For now I prefer Clover.
Now the boot process is going quite a bit further but I’m having some Kernel Panics and reboots at the point shown in the picture. I tried googling the issue before bothering this forum and several things but no luck yet.
To troubleshoot the issue I’m currently doing the following steps:
_I disconnected all not essential drives, I only have the target drive plugged in
_I removed all the PCI-e Cards other than the GPU.
_I Used all the suggested BIOS setting (no OC or other extra)
_Left only 2 modules of RAM out of 8 in the correct slots (per MOBO manufacturer Manual)
_ALL external peripherals are disconnected. Just my monitor, keyboard and mouse
_the monitor is connected to the GPU via HDMI
_Plug the USB Installer into a USB2 port, and even creating another installer on a spare drive and connecting internally via SATA
I have a MacBook Pro where I can modify the EFI folder and do the necessary changes.
I must point out that the Hack was working amazingly for the past 3+ years with a GTX 980 Ti (last working OS High Sierra). Since I was having issue in booting into the installer from the start I ditched the old EFI folder and build a new one
I’m attaching the photo of my Kernel Boot and my EFI Folder.
If anyone can help me I’ll be very grateful. I bet it’s an extremely stupid fix I overlooked due to being tired.
Thanks in advance
