Customac mATX question

[knastvaerk]

Hi guys
I have purchased the components recommended on here as CustoMac mATX.
I am now wondering if there is a installation guide for this build? and which OS version is recommended at this point with the least problems?
Hope you can give some advice for this build.

CPU

Hi Again Pastrychef
In your guide: Should one just use the same USB drive for doing the MSR unlocking and then format it for the OSX install after? or how is it to be understood?

 

[pastrychef]

Should one just use the same USB drive for doing the MSR unlocking and then format it for the OSX install after?

Yes. You can do that.

 

[knastvaerk]

Yes. You can do that.

Finished my build now, and begun trying to update to bios from f5 to f9g with a usb stick but already having problems ... it says "Bios ID check error" when I choose the update file.. You have any idea how to update?

I just did it through BIOS via a USB flash drive.
