X58 and OS X El Capitan? (X58A-UD3r)

Usal ! Glad you are now able to start Windows without having to initiate the Clover boot menu twice.

I finally fixed mine by deleting the "boot" folder in the EFI partition and then and only then can I boot into any of my Windows installations without having to cycle the Clover boot menu twice.

Another fix that also worked for me, and used by me over a long period was to format the EFI
partition as a MS DOS partition. That is however cumbersome and not the Clover standard way
of going about its installation/setup.

Replacing the deleted EFI "boot" folder into the EFI partition forces me to again cycle the boot
menu twice before access to Windows, from the Clover boot menu, is possible.

The problem is therefore repeatable on my GA-X58A-UD3R V.2.0 mobo with bios version FH.
With the EFI "boot" folder in place I could always boot into OS X and El Capitan in particular,
although the timer countdown indicator was always missing. Removing the EFI "boot" folder,
miraculously reinstated the timer countown feature enabling me to use "Wake on Lan" remotely,
with the knowledge that my machine will actually boot into the opsys and not waiting for user
input, beyond the set timeout period, at the Clover menu.

It appears to me that not all configured options in the Clover config.plist file are being applied
with the EFI "boot" folder in place. :)

I don't use a DSDT.aml in the "patched" folder, and everything is working well. including sleep
and audio (toledo patch), sometimes the machine reboots when I want it to shutdown, will look
into that some other time though, unless somebody has a ready made fix which is easily
applyable/instalable, for that.

Hi Guys

Someone managed to operate the two USB3.0 connectors on the GA-X58A-UD3R motherboard V2.0? There is already some Kext?

SUCCESS.

I have a GA-X58A-UD3R V2 (FF). I have things working well. Sound, sleep, shutdown. etc. Let me know if anyone has questions.

I am attaching the DSDT.aml and config.plist I'm using.

Third party driver for the Renesas chip driving USB3.0 ports on this board does not exist at this time.
 
Hi,

After using 10.8.3 for years, I installed El capitan on my X58A-UD5/i7 930/Geforce GTX 470. I followed tony's instruction.

Installation and post installation processes seemed ok. I got sound worked, and the os seems to work smoothly.

But my machine couldn't boot without USB. Actually I get Clover boot menu. But at the main OS loader screen it gets stuck. It freezes when the loader bar gets fully loaded. I enabled inject nvidia.

Anyone experiencing the same issue? What could be done? Or Am I making an easy mistake?

PS: I wouldn't care if the followings are working or not: USB3 support, iMessage or FaceTime login etc. My machine is a dedicated to one job.

Here's my config:

Having trouble I can't figure out. If I try to add any boot flags (like -v) to the boot process, it starts to load then hangs and reboots. The last thing on the screen before it hangs is IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 64:87.

Any thoughts/suggestions?
 
I copied the USB EFI contents to HDD EFI folder. Now It's booting from HDD. But I think it's not a solution right? What can I do further to get fully complete El capitan?
 
Guys, simple turn off bluetooth 3.0 controller on the bios. That solved my " boot1: /boot5 " problem and now i have successfully installed El Capitan on my GA-X58-Usb3.0
