macOS 10.15 Catalina is Now Available on the Mac App Store

Direct upgrade from Mojave to Catalina using App Store. No issues so far. Took about 30 minutes total, of which about 20 minutes was just a black screen with HDD activity lights blinking. Patience is the key. Only preparations made were the usual create a bootable backup (I use CCC), update kexts (Lilu, WhateverGreen, AppleALC) using Hackintool. So far so good, no obvious issues as of yet. Thanks again!

EDIT: FYI, Clover version used is 4961

If you attempt the installation in verbose mode and see "apfs_module_start:1683", see Post #264.
 
As explained some pages before, update went fine on my old Asus Z97 Pro but I have to disable Asmedia USB 3.0 ports in Bios or the computer won't go to sleep, it just goes blank and reboots after a minute. Once Asmedia USB ports are disabled, Sleep/wake works perfectly like it did in Mojave.
If someone have sleep problems, it might help.
 
Update smoothly like a real mac but no Bluetooth. Just download last BrcmPatchRAM.

I’ve already tried that, didn’t work. But thanks, anyway!
