Hey everybody,

My old Hack died earlier this week. Just got my new hardware setup: MSI X99A SLI PLUS, 32GB RAM & GTX 970.

I've created a GUID Unibeast drive. Trying to boot from it, I get to the Clover boot selection screen. Selecting it, up pops the Apple logo, followed by the void symbol.

Obviously I'm doing something wrong, most likely incorrect BIOS setting. Just can't find it.

Might be... What boot flags? Post your config.plist. Did you search MSI X99A SLI PLUS?

MSI X99 Sli Plus / 5930K / GTX 970


kduvernay, I have searched. Only found a couple of examples. No one mentioning what's happening to me. But I only have a vague idea of what I'm doing. I did not think I needed a config just to boot the installer.


Booting -v from Unibeast I see:

OsxAptioFixDriv: Starting overides for System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi
Using reloc block: no, hibernate wake: no
Error allocating 0x12140 pages at 0X0000000018095000 alloc type 2
Couldn't allocate runtime area
Boot failed, sleeping for 10 seconds before exiting.

SOLVED - see following post.

Hi again,

Guess what? I got most everything up and running! There might be a USB 3 crashing issue, but I'll solve it.

Stock 3.5 Ghz 5930K, 32GB RAM, SSD & GTX 970. Do these scores look about right?

What boot-args are you using besides -v? X99 requires npci=0x2000 boot-arg
What System Definition are you using? On the X99M Killer I find a reboot will always result in same error message and I have to boot with a USB to get back in. OTOH, if I shut down, then restart there is no problem booting.

I just wanted to thank everyone contributing to this thread, since I just updated my X99 build to El Capitan and everything is working as it should. I followed the steps in lokicat's post (#31) and used the same files and settings (except of course for the SMBIOS values ;-) ). USB3 and all my devices including a firewire audio interface and a bunch of external HDDs are working just fine.

Hey,

did anybody fix the random reboot issue on the GA-X99-UD4 rev. 1.0 with 10.11.2? I've been using lokicate's files from post #31 and changed the CPU speed to 3,5 GHz since I don't really feel the need to overclock my system. I'm using clover r3330.

Here are my specs just in case:

GA-X99-UD4
Intel 5930k
Gigabyte GTX970 G1 Gaming

I would appreciate any help in the matter.

Did you have to do anything different than the default instructions there? When I build my UniBeast El Capitan install key and reboot, I get circle with slash...
