Lattepanda Alpha

[biodork]

This post is in regards to the Lattepanda Alpha single-board computer, which you can read about HERE.
The board has:
Core M3 7Y30 processor
8GB RAM
64GB MMC built-in storage (comes with windows)
Ethernet, wifi, bluetooth
M.2 M-Key slot
M.2 E-key slot

Into the M.2 slots I have installed:
Samsung 960 EVO 500GB NVME SSD
Adapter and BCM94360CS2 WiFi Bluetooth

I was able to successfully install OSX Mojave right out of the box- no settings changed in the bios, using a Unibeast 9 installer USB.

Post-install, I have everything working as expected, with the exception of the internal graphics HD 615 (reports as 3MB, still need to work on that) and sound (another thing to work on).

I installed the latest version of Clover and a few kexts, and now have it booting without using the install usb. More on the kexts and settings later, because I may need some help with the graphics issue.

FYI, I'm sure the built-in MMC SSD would work fine for an install, but I wanted more space and a faster (MUCH faster) drive.

I also left empty partition space and did a clean install of Windows 10 on the Samsung 960 drive, which also boots flawlessly.

This board interested me because it's tiny and has so many features. Very similar specs to some of the Macbook Retina 12" laptops.

Just wanted to post here that it works, and I expect with some tweaking of the settings (I may need help with this) the graphics should work as expected too.

@biodork, Became hyper-curious about this little guy over the last few hours. How does sleep do? Functional?

There's a youtube video going around -- and it has full acceleration on it. I'm just looking to see if sleep works - cause that's definitely gonna tip me over the edge into buying this tiny little weed. Heh

Can you confirm it can go to sleep successfully?

Hi.
Can you share your clover file and write what kind of kexts you use?

What kind of adapter you used for the Wifi? I bought this one:
