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

[johnnyx86]

Hi @johnnyx86

I tried to create a fresh new config.plist for my NUC6i3, but it still has kernel panic right at the start of the booting process. Here attached is the screenshot.
What intrigues me is, Catalina 10.15.6 works using Clover, yet digital audio not working yet.
Did you ever come into this panic as well? What did you do at that time?
It will be very helpful if you are willing to share your config.plist, though.

Thanks again. View attachment 481250

Hello i replied to your post but inadvertently mentioned somethings I should not mention. Anyway here is my EFI folder working flawlessly for my Intel NUC6i3SYH.

I removed the Platforminfo, which you need to fill. Hope my EFI helps you since we have the same hardware.

Forgot to mention that I am using OC 0.6.0, which I compiled myself.

you can use the sanity checker, as already done here to fix some issues:

also check your bios settings

@Feartech
I do the fix based on the sanity checker, as well as refresh setting on my BIOS, and it works. Thanks a lot for the pointer!

@johnnyx86
Thanks a lot on the EFI. I am curious, I still has problem with no digital audio (audio over DP/HDMI). Do you have similar issue? I compare your EFI with mine and the device properties on the IGFX is same. Also, sleep is not working, i.e. blank screen after wake.

Edit 26Jul20:
Solved the audio problem. It requires FakePCIID and FakePCIID_Intel_Audio for Digital Audio to works.

Hi Johnny,

Your EFI can perfectly boot load my 10.15.6 which fresh installed with Clover. Thanks for your share.

Cheers

Hi,

No longer using hackintosh.

Now full-time on Windows 10.

You may want to look at other side that may be able to help you.

Good luck.
