[solved] ASUS X541UAK - Can't boot Busy timeout

[Euro321]

Hi,

I have a little problem with my ASUS X541UAK. I can't boot to the setup screen. I reached the installer, formatted the SSD, rebooted, it said Completing installation and now, all I get is:

busy timeout[0], (240s): ""AppleACPICPU"

I searched this forum for the problem and I found some outdated solutions for El Capitan and Sierra but for Desktop for Haswel era and I tried to apply them but nothing. Same problem.

This model has:

Intel Core i3 7100U
4 GB RAM
Kingston 60 GB SSD

Kexts I use:

FakePCIID
FakePCIID Intel HD Graphics
FakeSMC (latest version)
Lilu
VoodooI2C

the config.plist is attached to the post.

I tried with Rehabman .plist but the same error.

Do you have any idea how can I patch the DSDT for the elantech touchpad ? I tried I2C Vooodoo kexts but nothing still doesn't work so maybe there is something with the DSDT.
