[Guide] Intel Skylake NUC6 (and Skull Canyon) using Clover UEFI (NUC6i5SYK, NUC6i7KYK, etc)

[RehabMan]

Hello.

I'm planning to make a mod using my old iMac G4 employing the Intel NUC 6I3SYK. Can you please verify that graphics in this NUC are supported as well? (Intel HD Graphics 520). I ask this 'cause everytime I read the list of boards supported are refered to i5 models.

Thanks!

Follow the guide and test. I think most people are running higher end NUCs with HD640/HD650.

Thanks!

Should I worry also about the ssd m2 HD and RAM stick? Or being just "elements" of the board the compatibility is assured?

Any change requires all new problem reporting files.

ok, here they are.

ok, here they are.

Please read "Problem Reporting" carefully.
CLOVER.zip should not be 17MB.

Don't forget to enable SSDT-DisableDA.aml as mentioned in post #1 regarding update procedures.
The reason is that often partially patched AppleHDA and HDMI/DP audio enablement causes problems.
By injecting SSDT-DisableDA.aml, you disable "hda-gfx" injection which disables HDMI/DP audio, which avoids the crash.
After update, install_downloads.sh, boot without caches, rebuild cache/etc, you can then boot normally without SSDT-DisableDA.aml (it is excluded by default with config.plist/ACPI/DisabledAML).

Ok, I ran install_download.sh, in clover options menu unchecked drop SSDT-DisableDA.aml + selected boot without caches, but nothing changed. Still immediate reboot.

No "Problem Reporting" files attached.
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.
