Hackintosh Guide with Clover Bootloader on Serie 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

[pepe21]

Hi [ref]MaLd0n[ref]

I read the WhateverGreen FAQ and followed the steps, but it didn't work on my machine.

I used the EFI folder you provide me and I updated the WhateverGreen.kext and Lilu.kext. After that Iput away the DSDT.aml from the patched folder because I couldn't make the system work correctly.

After I removed the DSDT.aml from the patched folder, I configured my config.plist with some modifications and now it seems to work as expected, except for one little but weird thing.

On Chrome, there's a weird glitch with the icons when I mouse over them. I attach some screenshots above.

Although the Graphics section on About this Mac is showing the correct information:

Do you know what's happening? How can I fix it?

Also, do I need an additional DSDT? Could you help me with that?

I attach the Send_me file so you can see my EFI.

I've tested with iMac19,2 and iMac18,1. Same result.

With the last DSDT.aml the problem gets worst:

What does the DSDT do?

Here is the Send_me:

[ref]MaLd0n[ref] same result but without verbose boot log.

Also I need to unplug and plug my monitors so the system can recognise them and provide video to them, otherwise there is no signal.

What is the DSDT.aml doing? What fixes?

Thanks!!!

CSM support is disabled on my motherboard BIOS config.

If I active it, the result is the same.

I have a trouble with pen drive installation bootloader. I think is because my SSD HD is M.2 but plugged in PCI-e x16, so after install OSX by pen drive the Clover Boot don't recognizes SSD Drive to continue installation by it.

I have the same trouble with High Sierra new Olarila images, but with an old High Sierra 10.13.6 img (torrent download) i had successful. After pen drive installation, the bootloader recognizes SSD normaly and continue install perfectly. Unfortunately after install i can't success on install clover BL in SSD HD. Well, i tried with inumerous form and noone run boot, whatever that i do the MOBO always tell-me that have no boot devices then the pendrive.

I tried install windows 10 home to and a i have a same problem, after pen drive installation no boot from SSD HD, I'm pretty convinced that the problem is because i using an adapter M.2 to PCI-e.

Well, by the logic if the cloover bootloader configured in HS1.13.6 img working, so maybe i can make a specific pen drive boot for Mojave with the right configuration or kext to recognizes my HD SSD, or maybe some modification in a cloover bootloader of Mojave instalation. Is it possible?

 

MOBO: Gigabyte GA-B85M-D3H

Processor: Core I5 4690 3.5v

Hd Ssd Adata M.2 512gb Xpg Gammix S11 Pro Pci-e Gen3x4

This is the adapter image:

The problem is the MOBO doen't support M.2. I wrote to gigabyte and they r tell-me this, so i solved my problem instaling a SATA HD and wala, clear instal, runing and booting without the pen. 

Now i can't configure the ethernet, this is the unique thing that doesn' work yeat, sound and video r ok. can help-me to solve the ethernet?

 

Ahh yeah, i tried to install windows and many linux distro to test a bootloader and no-one works. lol
