- Was able to install OS, update post-install settings to what was recommended
Graphics Issue:
- After installing recommended web drivers, boot hangs and stops video signal to monitor
- only way to boot after that is by using nv_disable=1
- Installed 32GB RAM which is recognized by the motherboard (2 slots)
- System thinks there are 4 slots with only 2) 8GB chips
- So only 16GB seen
- Updated the SMIBIOS in config.plist with 4 8GB entries and set to dual channel (larger entries were not available in select box)
- Entries are unrecognized and they disappear from config.plist
