I have a HP 800 G2 mini, i7-6700. I am struggling with the Clover boot from @deeveedee but hope to get it working. I have used OpenCore for my latest Hackintosh builds. Here is my working EFI using OpenCore 0.5.8. SSDTs have been generated with DSDTTime on Windows. USB ports patched with Hackintool. As you see when you boot there are only 13 USB ports available. Not sure about wifi/bt until I get a compatible Broadcom BCM94360NG that I have ordered. Should work OTB. For now I don't see the device listed in USB ports. Audio is patched so inputs and outputs work.Hi I'm new to the hackintosh environment. But since I have a macbook air 2017 and switched from windows to mac I wanted to learn more about mac OS. Now I've got a free HP Elitedesk 800 TWR G2, I5 6500 with 24 gb ram and a samsung 850 Evo, and I'm trying to install Catalina 10.5.4, directly.
I have updated the bios to 02.47 Rev.A, and putted the bios settings according to: https://github.com/sakoula/HP-EliteDesk-800-G2-6700#bios-setup
A installation usb of 32gb with https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/unibeast-install-macos-catalina-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.285366/ .
I have used the install usb on the HP and it goed to the clover boot as per screen. Then it starts with the apple logo and the loading and when the loading part seems to be fully loaded, it stays on that screen for more than an hour, nothing happens.
Does someone could give me some advice? How long does this normally take?
Thanks for the help.
In fact this is a very fast boot (faster than Clover in my experience). I am using SMBIOS iMac17,1. My solved issues are:
- Can use both DP ports but not at the same time. VGA port is too unstable, gave up for now
- Sleep issues. Not even monitor sleep works, so I have disabled sleep on my machine for now.
