AMD FX 8350 - ASUS M5A78LM LX PLUS - Realtek 8111 kext error kernel panic

[felipe09]

Hi,

I have an AMD FX-8350 and an ASUS M5A78LM LX Plus motherboard, 4 GB of RAM,

 

I've tried the Olarila images—both Monterey and High Sierra—and both get stuck on “authenticate error” after the part where it checks basesystem.dmg

 

I also have a problem when I try to use Parallels with OpenCorePKG to create a USB drive and add the Realtek 8111 Gigabit network kext—it causes a kernel panic and always reboots. What could be causing this?

It could be caused by using an incompatible version of the kext, an outdated OpenCore release, or an incorrect EFI configuration.

I’ve already tried almost all the available versions of the Realtek 8111 kext,

 

my network card is a Realtek 8111E

 

I checked that it was correctly configured with OC AT.

 

I’ve tried the other version of the Horndis kext to download the recovery

 

although when I connect, the download is VERY SLOW – far too slow (19,18 hours on downloading the recovery) . Is there a way to fix this?

Check what KP. Go to /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports and post here all .panic files.

I don’t know how to find that path, but I’ll leave the OpenCore logs here

 

The last file is where I’ve added the Realtek 8111 kext to the configuration

Hi,

Thanks for your help.

I was able to boot up and get it running. I installed Monterey,

 

and I've noticed that the installation is also a bit slow; it took a long time to install even though I had the files on the SD card

Hi,

I have another problem. I was able to install the system, but when I get to the initial setup where I have to choose the country and region, the setup window closes and I can't continue...
