X79 Deluxe - 4930K - RX580 >> what version of MacOS can I install?

[noisegate]

Hi @MaLd0n,

 

I'm currently using 10.14.6. Would like to know which version will run best on my setup. v12? v13?

Also, is it still possible to do a Clover install? It works for me and I know what to do...

 

Thanks!

Hey there @MaLd0n,

 

I'm struggling with a Clover Monterey install. Here's what I'm getting after booting into the USB stick with your X79 EFI on it.

Here's a dump of my current Mojave install. Thanks for your help!

@MaLd0n Hey bro, I've been trying to add/remove kexts but I never seem to find the right combo. If you have any pointers I'm all ears... Thanks!

[MaLd0n]

U need paste or remove kext into kext folder and add entry on config.plist

[noisegate]

I copied the kexts to the USB EFI, I'm not sure which I should actually use

what should I add on config.plist?

Can I use the exact same kexts and config.plist entries for Mojave and Monterey?

Thanks

Hi @MaLd0n

 

No luck so far, either from your Clover or OpenCore EFI folder. I'm trying to do a clean install on a new drive but I still end up with a kernel panic. Here's what I tried:

 

CLOVER:

Adding/removing a few of my Mojave kexts to the ones from the X79 EFI folder:

AMDRadeonPro.kext

AppleIntelE1000e.kext

EFICheckDisabler.kext

FakeSMC.kext

NoVPAJpeg.kext

 

Adding/removing some of the Mojave boot args that are not in the Monterey config.plist

dart=0 keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 shikigva=32 shiki-id=Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94 alcid=1

 

--

 

OPENCORE:

Initially going with your Desktop IvyBridge EFI -> failure

Removed agdpmod=pikera in boot-args as I don't have a NAVI card

Going with the setup from this thread:

 

Here is what I'm getting when I try to boot with OpenCore:

Thanks

@MaLd0n bro PLEASE can you help me with a proper EFI folder? I can't boot into Monterey or Big Sur installer. I always get a panic, I don't know what to do... Sadly your IvyBridge-E OC/Clover EFIs are not working for me, I've been trying for months, now... Thank you 🙏

[MaLd0n]

Save acpi for me. Let me check.

[noisegate]

THANK YOU very much @MaLd0n

[noisegate]

Sure, here's the whole folder from RunMe.app @MaLd0n

[MaLd0n]

Press F4 key on boot screen. ACPI tables is generated on origin folder.

[noisegate]

Oh my bad, there you go @MaLd0n

[MaLd0n]

USe this efi folder and reset nvram EFI x79.zip

Error? Post one photo in error screen.

[noisegate]

Thank you SO MUCH bro. Do you suggest going with Monterey or Big Sur?

EDIT: So I tried booting into your EFI but mouse / keyboard are unresponsive, so I can't navigate the menu and eventually get back into Clover.

NB. I currently have Big Sur on the USB drive

I used to have a dedicated Windows 11 SSD but I don't use it anymore. Here's what I'm getting with the Clover EFI:

Thanks a lot @MaLd0n, I need to go but I'll try this one as soon as I can.

Between Monterey and Big Sur, do you think one will be more stable than the other on my config?

[MaLd0n]

Is updated! LEt me know.

[noisegate]

@MaLd0n well, I'm getting this, but nothing else happens 🙂
