For ASUSPro B9440UA / B9448UA this is the working solution so far. Still in process of polishing and getting additional services to work. Some useful utilities are also included.

Sound works 100%, screen brightness adjustment works 100% in Control Panel and halfway using Fn keys. Battery stats work via iStatMenu, sleep works (sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0). For wifi you will need a wifi dongle or a very tiny original apple module.
The problems with booting were apparently due to CPU cores getting out of sync. Got it fixed by installing a relevant kext.

You will need to know how to install EFI onto the hard drive. Use the BootIce utility under Windows to change the default boot record.
Good luck!

The following was made for AsusPro B9440UA i7-7500U 16Gb RAM configuration.

Sounds promising. Will check it out when I am back from Barcelona. Thanks.
