Thanks for the reply.

I've placed VoodooTSCSync.kext in clover>kexts>others, and have modified it to 19:

<key>VoodooTSCSync</key>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
<string>org.voodoo.driver.VoodooTSCSync</string>
<key>IOClass</key>
<string>org_voodoo_driver_VoodooTSCSync</string>
<key>IOMatchCategory</key>
<string>VoodooTSCSync</string>
<key>IOPropertyMatch</key>
<dict>
<key>IOCPUNumber</key>
<integer>19</integer>
</dict>
<key>IOProviderClass</key>
<string>AppleACPICPU</string>
</dict>

ok

What about the ACPI replacements?

e.g. SLOC -> ARPT might do something in your case you don't want at all..

SLOC -> ARPT is disabled at the moment. That would be the next step.

Ok, understand how to ACPI replacement. But what do I have to replace?
PXSX cannot be correct. So which Value have to be replaced to ARPT?

Hi, I have a question related to section D3.3 (making the USB installer bootable)

The line: cd /Volumes/USB_VOLUME
Should I replace the name USB_VOLUME with the name EFI or Install macOS High Sierra as this becomes the new name of the USB drive?

No issues known..

I can confirm! No Shut down or Restart issue at all on my ASUS X299-A PRIME!

It's the name of your USB. So in your case "Install macOS High Sierra".

Maybe I found an error. Can someone check with IO Reg if there is an entry of SBUS? I just searched, there is no entry for this, not @PCI0 or somewhere else.

Maybe thats the reason of shutdown/reboot problems. (I have a prime X299 Deluxe, and having this troubles too)

Thanks for the replies. If the LiveDash is that valuable then I'll go with the Deluxe on my own build. And thanks to @kgp for putting together such a comprehensive document.

If everything is properly set, there are no shutdown/reboot problems! Please don't start with a global conspiracy about the SBUS implementation. The SBUS is not visible in the IOREG.

Good luck in solving your system configuration errors
