Working on my first build in awhile:
Components
CPU: i7-6700K
GPU: EVGA 970
Motherboard: GA-Z170MX-Gaming 5
NVMe: Samsung 960 Evo 500GB
BIOS
1. Load Optimized Defaults
Secure Boot Mode disabled
XHCI Hand-Off enabled
Serial Port disabled
VT-d disabled
(Note: NVMe shows up in BIOS)
I've used Unibeast 6.2.0 to create a USB installer of El Capitan. I was having trouble creating a bootable installer with clover directly.
In order to have NVMe drive show up in diskutil/installer
* git clone https://github.com/RehabMan/patch-nvme
* Copy KextsToPatch from NVMe_patches_10_11_6.plist to KextsToPatch in EFI/CLOVER/config.plist on USB
Now I'm able to install El Capitan to the NVMe drive just fine, however when I try and boot the new install from the USB it will load for awhile and then error out with a circle with a cross through it. Booting with verbose mode doesn't help much as the screen gets garbled when the circle with a cross shows up.
Things I've tried (possibly incorrectly)
* Copying the USB EFI partition to the new install's EFI partition.
* run ./patch_nvme.sh 10_11_6 to generate HackrNVMeFamily-10_11_6.kext and install at /S/L/E [1]
* run ./patch_nvme.sh --spoof 10_11_6 to generate HackrNVMeFamily-10_11_6.kext and install at /S/L/E [1]
* installing osxupdcombo10.11.6.dmg with the above
Any suggestions on what to possibly do next to further debug things? It seems to start booting off the NVMe but I can't seem to figure out what's killing it. Please let me know which files I should upload to help clarify my setup.
[1] renamed NVMe_patches_10_11_6_sec2016-003.plist to NVMe_patches_10_11_6.plist (Real mac is on 10.11.6)
