I wanted a high end computer for photo editing and deep learning.
I didn't use Multibeast, because I had problems with Audio.
All kexts, except the once for hardware monitor, are installed in /Library/Extensions/.
I just copied the kexts into /Library/Extensions/ with Command+C.
After that you must run these three commands in Terminal step by step, then restart:
- sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions
- sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions
- sudo kextcache -i /
