How to build your own iMac Pro [Successful Build/Extended Guide]

[gonghaobaogang]

Yep - thats ok. Your sig says you have a MacBookPro.
Can you SSH to the hackintosh? Do you know its IP? If so SSH to it and follow the steps to remove the Nvidia driver here.

So I suddenly realized that I don't have a wifi card for this build yet so no SSH. But I used the way that delete all the kext file in recovery mode and launch the uninstallation when I get back to the OS. I think that can completely delete all the Nvidia drivers like in SSH? When I reinstall the driver follow your method. It reboot again. With SIP fully enabled.
When I try to boot in secure mode it just hangs when a line called PCI XXXX check.

- Remove -lilubeta and -nvda_drv=1 from your boot args;
- Move the NVWebDriverLibValFix.kext, NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext and Lilu.kext out of /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other (or just put them in a directory called backup);
- Make sure config.plist doesn't contain nvda_drv=1 (boot arg) or NvidiaWeb (system parameter);
- Set CsrActiveConfig to 0x0;
- Reboot
- At the Clover loader screen hit spacebar and select Safe Mode then boot with selected settings
- install the nvidia web driver - you will get the GateKeeper prompt - if you don't something is wrong

Dear @kgp:

Some minor typo corrections: sometimes you use "not" when you mean "note":

* First line of section C): "Please not the following"...

* "c.) Not that the only XCPM"

* "Not that for performing"

* "take not of values"

And another typo:

* "Note the in the" (?)

Thanks for the very complete guide!

If I choose Safe Mode it will stuck in this line.

PCI configuration begin.



Safe Mode always not work for me, so sad.

What drivers are in driversUEFI64?
So it boots OK normally but not in Safe Mode?

Default kit from KGP

Thus, My build need Lilu.kext to boot. Otherwise it will stuck on "APCI:Executed 6 blocks of module-level executable AML code".

Thanks for the diagnosis.

No - this is a transient issue. Lilu.kext isn't making your system boot. What kexts do you have in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other?

Looks like but it just freeze and I cannot boot into OS.

FakeSMC.kext
IntelMausiEthernet.kext
Lilu.kext
VoodooTSCSync.kext

These 4 kexts.

Why Lilu.kext?
