Puba Cajhen Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) Hello, I get a wild idea to install mac osx Catalina on my grandfatherish GA-P55M-UD2 motherboard with 16 GB of RAM, i5 760 Intel CPU and Radeon RX 480 graphic card. Is this hardware compatible to do that such a thing and what setup is recommended for installing it? Thanks in advance for your answers and suggestions.

Hi, I could install macOS Monterey in the same motherboard but with different CPU and GPU. Check my GitHub repository and see if it can help you. https://github.com/ru379/BigSur-Monterey-on-Clarkdale Edit: If you install macOS Catalina instead of Monterey, it's much more easy to make it work I spent lots of hours making my hackintosh work with Monterey.

You can try using the Opencore EFI in the GitHub link I shared with you and see if it works on catalina, if it does please tell me and I can add the compatibility in my repository.

Is this solvable ? Are you using Clover or OpenCore? And you are trying to install Catalina, right? Check if you have injected intel graphics or ATI or nvidia option enabled. If yes, disable it because you GPU is natively compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried with Clover, like MaLd0n suggested, injection of intel, ATI, nvidia graphics are not enabled. Will try open core installation with your efi folders in it. The operation should be done like so: 1. make bootable USB with Catalina installed 2. mount EFI folder 3. copy your efi folder inside it 4. make necessary changes with open core configurator 5. boot to installation Probably I missed something. Thanks for help, appretiate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
