[ref]amadeusex[/ref], Thank you so much for sharing. This project is on hold for a minute, but I'll definitely check it out.

Thanks, I will try it and let you know. I have not done anything with the DSDT.aml.zip file you sent me yet as I'm not sure where it goes. I'm reading and learning as we go! [edit] firewire rear port is working for hard drives, but the isight is not recognized. It's the original one. Maybe it's not supported in Mojave. No big deal as I have a modern Logitech. Man, there's a lot of details to get right.

OK I went through the steps to verify that I have Realtek ALC262 for my own benefit. I open the resources folder and have layouts: 7,11,12,13, and 28. I tried 7 first and rebooted. That gave me sound from the internal speaker, but not from any of the jacks. I will try the other 4 before moving on to your next steps. Thanks again. Added in 10 minutes 33 seconds: OK layout 11 worked! I will run Hackintools next and post that export. Thank You! Added in 22 minutes 42 seconds: From Hackintools PCI tab export: pcidevices.txt Thanks again!

As requested, Sir. Send me Locus-Solus.zip

Holy cow that fixed a bunch of stuff. Thank You! I have to run out shortly but will take a deeper look tonight and do some more reading to see what I can fix. Things working now: - Asus usb wifi adapter - ethernet port 0 - airplay to Apple TV - rear USB3 ports Things kinda working: - firewire 400 both ports front & rear (isight & external drives light up, but OS doesn't see them) Things definitely not working: - headphone jacks - ethernet port 1 - front USB3 ports - PS/2 port for my mechanical keyboard (man I wonder if I have an adapter somewhere) - any kind of system sound - only airplay works - HP Thunderbolt 2 card GeekBench single 2244 multi 31705 Right in the pack with iMac Pro 8 core and nMP 12 core on multi core I am stoked! Will make a list and tackle these one at a time. Thanks a million! If I can get this sorted, I may treat myself to a barebones Z840 and build it up. Thanks again!

Hi, not sure if this thread is still active. I replied to MaLd0n here: https://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=9301&p=85167#p85167 But I'm trying to follow the forum guidelines. Please see attached DSDT. Thanks! Send me admins-Mac-Pro.zip [edit] thread is obviously still active - my browser was only showing old pages. Thanks!

Send me admins-Mac-Pro.zipOK I reinstalled and booted to the desktop again. Per the instructions I downloaded the clover 5,6,7,8,9 series folder and replaced my clover folder. I also ran the DSDT and it is attached. System will not boot now. last 3 entries are: RTC: only single RAM bank (128 bytes) HID: Legacy shim 2 AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: (built 23:24:33 Apr 25 2019) Initialization complete then it hangs. Thanks in advance! Will drop you some beer money from the office next week.

Thanks MaLd0n, I did something and now it won't boot Let me get back to that spot and I will extract dsdt and post today.

Update: I had some more time to tinker with this and finally got it booted to the desktop. A lot of things don't work: ethernet, audio, thunderbolt, internal storage (booting from SSD on USB2). But it's progress. Now I'm this far I'll get reorganized today and seek some help. What kind of problems are you having?

No progress, although to be fair I've been just reading and trying stuff. Haven't posted to ask the experts for help. Background: I need Macs with GPU power to do some forensic work. I paid to have similarly specced Z820 Hackintoshed for the office. It is fast as hell! I wanted to test the feasibility of hackintoshing and maintaining a fleet of them myself. Obviously a no go - too much time and tinkering so far. I'd have to go the paid route again (if I can find the guy). Have you tried ESXi 6.7?

Hello All, first post, hope I'm in the right forum. I'm here to document my build from start to finish and see if it's viable for me to personally build and maintain a handful of these for a project. At least until Apple release a new Mac Pro. Z820 non v2 BIOS 2 Xeon E5-2687W (8 core 3.1GHz) BIOS J63 v03.94, 7/10/2018 32GB RAM DDR3 RX 580 GT 1030 HP Thunderbolt 2 card 240GB SSD (Windows) 1TB SSD (Mojave) 2 300GB 15k spinners for misc. handful of USB drives for booting, images, etc. I tried bare metal with ESXi but it kept hanging on install. If this goes well, and we finally get Nvidia drivers, I have a couple of GTX 1070s ready to replace the 580.
