pastrychef's Asus ROG Strix Z370-G Gaming (WI-FI AC) build w/ i9-9900K + AMD 6600 XT

Hello. I have problems downloading the Mojave installer. The system itself starts well, but the installer does not. If you disconnect the RADEON RX 580 graphics card, the installation download works correctly. I used 5027 and 5114. If the video core is working, do you have to change something in the clover settings for the RADEON RX 580?

You shouldn't need to do anything extra for RX 580.

A black screen does not appear every time. But it is annoying. Although the system starts always without problems

It sounds like you are using HDMI... Try using a good quality DisplayPort cable.

Is this a problem due to HDMI? I only have a monitor. Can the DP adapter solve this problem?

Try lowering your refresh to 30Hz and see if the problem still occurs.

When I tried, an active adaptor didn't help. YMMV.

Note that I have 14 XHC ports. I also have 4 PXSX ports, and it's my understanding those aren't impacted by the 15 USB port limit of MacOS.

PastryChef: Can you directly comment on that, please? Is that correct? I'm still on the Asus Z370-G Gamine board with the 'Asus' 3.1 controller adding the top 2 red USB ports...

Correct. The only ports that are counted towards the 15 limit are the XHC ports.

Hey Pastry...
I don't know if you've heard yet, but Apple has included a major bug into 10.15.5 that badly affects copies made with Carbon Copy Cloner....

Hi @pastrychef

I'm using BCM94360CS2, and I can not use my Apple Watch to unlock my Mac (but approve by watch works).
The Bluetooth works fine for my machine, and my USB fix does not affect to it
uia_exclude=HS08;HS09;HS10;HS14;HS12;HS13;USR1;SS08;SS09;SS10;USR2

Do you have any suggestion where I can start debugging?
