My goal is to run a dual-boot setup, with two dedicated graphics cards (disabled Intel HD630 iGPU):
When I try to boot with both cards seated, I reach a black screen, no automatic reboot, reachable via SSH. Verbose runs seemingly until the end (no retry notices). System version is High Sierra 10.13.2; The web drivers are no longer installed.
How can I let macOS ignore/disable the secondary card? Do I have to use a "helper card" as described in some earlier AMD threads to boot on integrated graphics?
EDIT FROM THE FUTURE: If anyone stumbles upon this thread with the same task: I decided to ditch NVIDIA cards altogether. One of the most important things in building a high performance Hackintosh always to know properly supported hardware — and proper sometimes has to mean natively as well. If I'm upgrading in the future, I'm going to pick cards like the AMD Vega or just a second RX 580.
