Hi, I would very much appreciate some help because I'm stuck. I'm following this guide, and in section
B1.) ASUS BIOS Configuration after setting all parameters according to the guide nothing happens at boot. The monitor does not start, no picture.
Hardware:
ASUS PRIME X299-DELUXE
i9-7900X
GTX 1050 Ti
The the
Thunderbolt EX3 is not installed on the motherboard.
I have tracked down which BIOS setting causes this problem:
8.) /Boot/Compatibility Support Module/
a.)
Launch CSM: Disabled
If I instead leave the
Launch CSM: Enabled, I get the post screen and can go into BIOS.
I wonder what can cause the problem when setting
Launch CSM: Disabled?
I'm using the
X299D.CAP, the most recent ASUS Prime X299 Deluxe BIOS Firmware 1401 with an iMacPro Splash Screen, found under
B.) Mainboard BIOS. The firmware was flashed successfully and the Splash Screen is shown.
Another question is why this guide is not using
UniBeast? Should I do that? I have prepared a USB flash according to the instructions, using the
Clover Configurator.
It is unclear to me if I shall copy the
EFI-Folder (that was prepared and placed on the Desktop of an original Apple Mac Pro), to the USB flash by just drag-and-drop to the root, placing it next to the macOS installer APP, or if it needs to be written to the USB flash in some special way and location?
I followed the guide in
C.) Important General Note/Advice and Error Prevention
up to point 7 but did not do point 8. Is it important to do point 8? Its confusing what I shall do there.
In point 10 I got compilation errors but fixed them by removing some code sections that is not for the target architecture anyway. I only need it to compile for High Sierra. But, will this lead to trouble when trying to upgrade later on to Mojave? I removed code related to Mojave (I think) because it did not compile.
The guide does however not mention what to do with the built kexts in step 10? So I did not copy them to the USB flash yet.
