2x 64gb Neemix Ram
2TB Samsung PRO 860 SSD
Radeon Vega Frontier Edition
PC Power & Cooling 1200W

Silverstone GD09B Case

The Gist:
* Disabled CSM and Serial Ports in Bios
* Set BIOS to UEFI Only

Drivers:
* apfs.efi
* AppleImageCodec-64.efi
* AppleKeyAggregator-64.efi
* AppleUITheme-64.efi
* CsmVideoDxe-64.efi
* DataHubDxe-64.efi
* FirmwareVolume-64.efi
* FSInject-64.efi
* OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi
* SMCHelper-64.efi
* VBoxHfs-64.efi

Kexts:
* FakeSMC.kext
* IntelGraphicsFixup.kext
* Lilu.kext
* Shiki.kext
* WhateverGreen.kext

Config.plist attached.

CsmVideoDxe in combination with Lilu.kext and WhateverGreen.kext seems to have been the trick. Unclear if Shiki or IntelGraphicsFixup are needed.

I was quite surprised to find the onboard Aspeed AST2400 GPU functioning under OS X. I'm still resolving exact details, as this is the only GPU that appears in XRG, even though System Information reports that the display is driven by the Vega and About this Mac suggests that the Vega is primary.

More details soon as I get everything in place.

Is that a problem? There are so many files to post one by one.

Not a problem but some people are reluctant to click external links.

Hello i have the same Motherboard and i really want to instal High Sierra MacOS on my pc can you tell me what step to do that? Thanks.
 
@qnody, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard, CPU and iGPU or Graphics Card.
If you have a prebuilt computer enter make and model instead of motherboard (Mobo).

Hi everybody,
I'm also trying to install Mojave on Z10PA-D8 with 2x E5 2650v3 Xeons.
But I got some problems when booting from USB "Install Mojave" in verbose mode I'm blocked with :
"End RandomSeed
++++++++++++...".

My USB stick got 2 GPT partitions : One EFI with Clover and one JHFS+ with install file and multibeast.
I used Unibeast to copy files.

How can I fix that before going crazy ?
Thanks,
 
Don't use Unibeast or Multibeast. Use fresh Clover install or use OpenCore. You need newest FakeSMC or VirtualSMC, Lilu, Whatevergreen (won't hurt). ++++ happens because of Aptiomem issue or bc you misconfigured something like memory. #hackintosh on irc freenode is a good place to chat realtime and get help on it. Otherwise, I'll try to make some time to post my current OC config tomorrow or soon.
 
When I install last Clover 5099, it freeze when i press enter to boot from the usb installer.
You are the only one I found with the same mainboard that got it working,
Do you have a folder or link with the exact drivers and kexts you have ?
I'm trying to install Mojave but have you switched to Catalina ?
Catalina would be better for me but i'm not sure about stability
 
You need to either modify your bios to unlock MSR 0xE2 or use the corresponding xcpm patches from Pike R Alpha. If you use opencore, those are built in. I'm using Catalina now, but either works fine. I'll try to make some time to assemble and upload my config later today.
