Hello! I am trying to make a Optimac ( Dell Optiplex 9020 Ultra Small Form Factor (USFF) ) - I went this route due to less cost and it seemed more documented and easy because this is my first attempt at a hackintosh. - It has all compatible parts, I'm not using any extra hardware just the vanilla ultra small form factor that they have built many guides around here. So I know it's not my hardware, but I can post the specs if need be. I followed this guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...-radeon-rx-570-lg-4k-ips-monitor.277811/#bios to the "T". The only thing I may have messed up are the kexts and other files. I only downloaded and added their "0.6.9 OC EFI.zip" at the bottom of the page but they had several other ones available.
I'm using opencore, I had to make this with disk part in windows 10 because I do not have a mac machine. Using 8 gig usb 2.0 flash drive.
Now the problem is it is getting stuck at 2 minutes left and giving me a "pkdownloaderror error 8" error. I have tried it 3 times and once it went through without the error and rebooted several times only to wind up back at the opencore install (flash drive) screen. I also tried to boot from the drive but that gave me no OS found type of command line.
Random question: at what point do I take out the opencore flash drive?
Thanks in advance!
