@CaseySJ
First of all, I'd like to thank you for all the efford you have put into this build and in helping people getting it up and running. Maybe I'm a little late, but I now decided to use this build for my new hack and - of course - I wouldn't be writing here, if everything worked as I expected... I hope you can give me some advice.
So, first things first: Hardware
- Gigabyte Z690 Aero G (DDR5 version though)
- 2x16GB DDR5-6000 CL 36-36-36-36 Trident Z5 (RGB yuck); the case says "Intel XMP Ready", I don't know, if that matters somehow
- Intel Core i5 12600K
- WD Black 1TB .M2 (in the CPU-slot)
- AMD RX 6600 XT (Gaming)
As I am using a RX 6600 XT, I am trying to install 12.6.3 macOS Monterey (21G419, currently latest).
First thing, I had to do a BIOS-update because the whole machine didn't even start into BIOS with this CPU and RAM. I thus updated to F22. I don't know if this still lacks the Thunderbolt settings, but I don't have a TB card and don't really care about those.
About BIOS and the settings you listed:
There was no option regarding BAR-support so I suppose, my RX 6600 XT does not support that.
Internal GPU is DISABLED.
My available old hackintosh machine, where I do all the edits, only runs on Mojave, so I cannot use HackinDROM for updates (not supported).
I used your prepared 0.8.3 EFI from post #1,779 and OpenCore Configurator for Version 0.8.3 in order to:
- generate new platform info (generic only, 'MacPro7,1', I tried 'MacPro1,1' but the installation then tells me that installing this version on that platform is not supported)
- rename my GPU and GPU audio (DeviceProperties)
- add '-v' to the boot-args (NVRAM)
- set Misc->Debug->Target to 67
- (left Misc->Security->SecureBootModel on 'Disabled')
As I am installing Monterey 12.6, I chose SSDT-UIAC-Z690-AERO-G-ALL-PORTS-HS14 and set the XhciPortLimit quirk.
Now, trying to install (USB 2.0 drive in one of the two USB 2 on the backside), installation stalls at "HID: Legacy shim 2" (s. attached picture).
And now I don't know how to continue and hope you can help me somehow...
I am attaching:
- photo of the stalled screen
- my config.plist
- some OC-log file that was generated automatically
- my DSTD dumped on Windows 10 (which runs fine from a seperate SSD)
Thanks in advance for your time and help. I really appreciate it!
Regards,
Jo
