OpenCore Panic ASUS TUF Gaming B460M-Plus Comet lake

[truedaz]

Hello friends,

I've been running my hackintosh for years now and have decided to upgrade it. I have the following Hardware in the new case:

1. ASUS TUF Gaming B460M-Plus
2. Core i9-10850K. 3.6GHz
3. Crucial Ballistix BL2K32G32C16U4B 3200 MHz, DDR4, DRAM

I have not purchased a graphics card at this time as I read that on board graphic should function fine. So all in a very simple build that I read is all compatible with Big Sur & Catalina.

I installed my current OS Catalina with Cover so I've been trying out OpenCore (following the guide carefully) to setup BiG Sur but it keeps stopping during boot.

I have tried the following methods:
- build following the guide; https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config.plist/#creating-your-config-plist
- original and edited versions of: https://github.com/akarsh1995/ASUS-TUF-Gaming-B460-Plus-i5-10400-Opencore-Hackintosh-Build
- original and edited versions of: https://github.com/shinrai2/ASUS-TUF-GAMING-B460M-PLUS-RX5600XT-Hackintosh-Opencore
- generating with OC Gen X
- This guide: https://manjaro.site/how-to-create-opencore-efi-easy-way-using-oc-gen-x/
- I have tested and cleared errors show on: https://opencore.slowgeek.com/
- I've been over my BIOS settings a number of times from the guide

The method which got the furthest seems to be an amended version from the above - I've attached the config.plist and the ACPH folder for ref

There seem to be a few errors I see in the Verbose:
ACHI Error: method parse/execution failed [\_SB.PC10.XHC.RHUB] ... Namespace lookup error

and it finally ends on:
[PCI configuration end, bridges 4, devices 11]


Please can you help identify what is stopping boot?

Objectives:

1. Ideally to boot to the Big Sur installer I have on ISB
2. if not, im happy to stay with Catalina from my current SSD, I just need to know what changes I need to make to my EFI folder and how I can apply it the the current SATA drive.

Thanks for all your help in advance - really pulling my hair out here

Thanks - I've updated my profile details to the new hardware

HI,
I've been back through the OpenCore guide: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config.plist/comet-lake.html#starting-point

I have completely rebuilt the config.plist file now based on the recommendations n this guide and not used OpenCore Configurator.

The end result is the same. I was seeing the same error as quoted:
There seem to be a few errors I see in the Verbose:
ACHI Error: method parse/execution failed [\_SB.PC10.XHC.RHUB] ... Namespace lookup error

and it finally ends on:
[PCI configuration end, bridges 4, devices 11]

I added more debug boot args to help identify the issue (all recommended on the guide):
-v keepsyms=1 debug=0x12a msgbuf=1048576
-wegnoegpu -liludbgall io=0xff igdebug=0xff acpi_layer=0x8 acpi_level=0x2

Now the result is it reboots during boot.

I've attached the boot log file and complete EFI folder for ref. Please help - I know this mobo and CPU can work.

Thanks!
Daz

probably only boot arguments you need:
-v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100

make sure your bios settings are correct

reset nvram

also test by disabling SSDT-RHUB.aml

Thanks for your advice. Sorry it took a while to respond - I've been trying your advice and debugging with trial and error :

Steps taken:
- checked BIOS settings
I used this guide and made some changes that I'd missed:

Desktop Comet Lake | OpenCore Install Guide

I could not find the following in my TUFF BIOS, so I have not been able to make these changes:
'Intel Platform Trust'
'VT-x'
'Execute Disable Bit'

- set the boot args to only '-v keepsyms=1 debug=0x100'
- reset NVRAM
- I added the following boot args because I read they could help:
cdfon - to help with blurry resolutions
wegnoegpu - Used for disabling all other GPUs than the integrated Intel iGPU

The result:
you were right, I think the main thing I was missing was the reset NVRAM - I didnt understand before that I chould do this each time I change my EFI config.

Current state:
I was able to start the installer! - however it had a pink screen. I've read about this and its because im using HDMI instead of Display port.
I now have 2 problems:

1. installer reboots
2. pink screen

Problem 1: installer reboots
Although the installer completed. When booting to this 'install MacOS' partition to continue install, the machine reboots within a few seconds. I've googled but have no solution for this yet.

Problem 2: pink screen
I've amended my config.plist as described here to try to enable HDMI port:

Desktop Comet Lake | OpenCore Install Guide

and here: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/gpu-patching/intel-patching/connector.html

but the pink screen still remains. I've read info here, but its beyond me at this point: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore...l-patching/busid.html#parsing-the-framebuffer

For reference the integrated graphics on my i9 CPU is:
Intel UHD Graphics 630

I will attach recent logs, EFI folder for reference.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Hi friends,

just wanted to update for anyone reading. I have fixed all issues and posted my EFI here for ref:

GitHub - truedaz/OpenCore_ASUS-TUF-Gaming-B460M-Plus_i9-10850K_EFI: OpenCore configuration for ASUS TUF Gaming B460M-Plus, Intel core i9 i9-10850K

OpenCore configuration for ASUS TUF Gaming B460M-Plus, Intel core i9 i9-10850K - truedaz/OpenCore_ASUS-TUF-Gaming-B460M-Plus_i9-10850K_EFI

github.com

My solutions were:
1. installer reboots
I think this was actually all due to using a HDMI cable although I did make several other kext changes in the EPI folder (see above link). The default is for DisplayPort so I bought one and it then it got to the installer.

2. pink screen
You will always get a pink screen too with the HDMI until you amend the framebuffer as referenced in above git repo above.

Hope this helps someone
