[work in progress] Gigabyte Z390 M | Intel 9600K | UHD 630

[einnutzer3]

Hello,

this will be my 4th Hackintosh, it's the first one, i truly "built". My older Hackintoshs were always built by my dad and had a life as Windows-PC's before i got them and "hackintoshed" them. I always had builds with Nvidia-cards, but I came to liking Intel-Graphics (on Linux) recently.

For my build I used:

• Gigabyte Z390 M Mainboard
• Intel 9600K CPU
• no extra GPU, so I'm with the UHD630
• 16GB RAM
• 500GB Samsung 970 Evo
• 120GB HP EX900
• a BitFenix Prodigy M case (not satisfied with the quality, i'm using a Nanoxia for my next build again.

Today i received the last part of my order and assembled the machine. A testing with linux went fine.
A first try to "just boot" a UniBeast Catalina failed. I am still reading about (to me) "new stuff" like Lilu.

I'd like to use this thread to document what i tried and hopefully what worked.

If someone has a nice Idea where to start for me or a very similar build I'm happy with a link

As far as i understood, I'm stuck with non-working-graphics at the moment. As it's getting late I take a break and try again after work tomorrow.

If someone has a nice Idea where to start

Search for "still waiting for root device" or "prohibitory symbol".

Thank's a lot! Your knowledge in hyroglyphs helped me a lot today, i just got to the installer, but it doesn't install yet.
I post an update once i know more.

I believe I'm stuck with something from either PCIe-SSDs or APFS, as i can boot to install but the installer always fails.

BIOS settings ?

Got a solution: A new Display. No Problems when booting from DisplayPort.
