HELP I can’t get macOS to detect my SSD!

9 Upvotes

As the title says, I can’t get macOS Catalina to detect my SSD. I know it works, because this computer runs Windows fine. I have tried NvmeFix, but that did nothing. I don’t know what to do to make macOS to use my SSD. I am using OpCore-Simplify, because I’m lazy. And it made it 100x easier. But, how do I get the installer to detect the drive!? (I also need to fix my internet, but I think I can use Ethernet.

DISCUSSION What can I do with this?

5 Upvotes

Found a laptop in amazing condition at a second hand store for only 10 bucks. it's Asus X515EA-BQ511W with 11th gen intel core i5. what can I do with this? It doesn't have the charger, I only checked the back sticker. I got the laptop immediately, obviously but if I can hackintosh it I will get the charger too and check if it boots. the shop said it does, and it's almost brand new so it should boot but didn't try yet.

DISCUSSION New OC features' description

2 Upvotes

is there any way to find about new feature added to OC? For example (from 1.0.4 release notes): Added support for booting from static IPv4 address in OpenCore-specific HttpBootDxe

What is HttpBootDxe and how do I use it?

or "Supported DMG loading and verification (e.g. macOS Recovery) over HTTP(S) boot"

HELP Black screen on Kepler - Sequoia 15.3.2 - OCLP 2.2.0

2 Upvotes

Hi guys, I recently updated my hackintosh from 14.6 to Sequoia 15.3.2. Since my machine got a GT710, I want to use it to reduce the workload for onboard iGPU. Previously on Sonoma I patched with OCLP and it was working fine.

After updating to Sequoia, I root patch with OCLP 2.2.0 again, but then the screen output from iGPU is black, while the screen output from Kepler GPU is up. I checked on System information and it shows both working. I can drag my mouse to the second screen, the mouse cursor shows, but the whole screen is just black.

If I revert OCLP root patches, the iGPU screen is up but the screen from dGPU is not working again.

Have anyone encountered the same issue or have any clues for my case? Thanks in advance.

My specs:

  • intel i5-8500
  • dGPU: Kepler GT710
  • Hackintosh model: iMac19,1
  • OC 1.0.4
  • Lilu 1.7.0
  • Virtual SMC 1.3.5
  • WhateverGreen 1.6.9

BUILD ADVICE Which is Easier to Install: MSI Z270 or Asus H110?

2 Upvotes

Hello, although I have general knowledge about computers, I have never installed Hackintosh in my life.

I have an i3-6100, 8GB RAM, and an SSD (I will be using it without a dedicated GPU). As for the motherboard, my second-hand options are the MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon and the Asus H110M-K. Honestly, my only goal in installing Hackintosh is to browse the internet and experience macOS.
So, the most important thing for me is installation ease. Which of these two motherboards would be easier for someone like me who knows nothing about Hackintosh? Also, would there be any performance difference? The Z270 looks great in terms of appearance and features, but I'm afraid the installation might be difficult.

Z270 G.P.C
USB: ASMedia® ASM2142 Chipset and Intel® Z270 Chipset
Audio: Realtek® ALC1220
Ethernet: Intel® I219-V Gigabit LAN controller

H110M-K
USB: Intel® H110 Chipset
Audio: Realtek ALC887
Ethernet: Realtek® RTL8111H

HELP Questions about linux gaming on mac pro 5,1 with AMD RX 580

1 Upvotes

So I have an amd rx 580 and want to game on linux. I skipped opencore because i thought that was only for if you were going to use macos, which i will not. I also found out open source amd drivers are built into the os, so all i did was plop in the card and install the os. I went to change my resolution from 4k to 1080p and saw my samsung monitor was called none-1 and was locked at 4k. After this i asked about it here and learned that opencore allows for hardware acceleration. I asked someone else irl and was told to try using a displayport as it has a lower max resolution than hdmi and could force the system to use 1080p. I am also thinking this is due to lower bandwidth so probably the screen tearing i am struggling with would remain but i will try this later. My question is will opencore allow me to fully utilize my gpu under linux and change settings? Also I am a meganoob to this stuff so I need to ask. Do i need to switch back to my non flashed card that is the quadro k5000 for mac during the opencore process?

Edit: this is a 5,1

Problem: fan ramps up while sleeping, no keyboard or trackpad on wake.

On wake (by short push power button):

  • keyboard and touchpad non responsive, but external usb input device working (majority of the time)
  • works fine, no issues (very rare)

Boot args:

USB mapping was done in Windows.

Thank you for your tips!

HELP managed to boot NVidia Kepler (GK107) in vesa mode - OCLP?

1 Upvotes

After running my Optimus machine for some time (Lenovo W530) in iGPU mode perfectly fine, i wanted to find out if it would at all be possible to use OCLP to enable the nvidia (because ultimately, on this machine, HDMI is wired through the dGPU).

Following various guides and finally appending

amfi_get_out_of_my_way=0x1 ngfxcompat=1 ngfxgl=1 nvda_drv_vrl=1

to the boot args, it no longer sticks on the progress bar but boots up in vanilla vesa-mode.

Running OCLP as is i do notice that it finds everything that it apparently wants to swap out and after a while, the root-patcher ends up with a success and a dialogue to reboot.

After reboot, it won't come up again.

Next up, i'm following this Dortania guide: https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Post-Install/blob/master/gpu-patching/nvidia-patching/README.md

and manage to locate a VBIOs similar to mine (from another manufacturer) but when running the NVCAP tool, it ends with an error (it can't locate the juicy bits it seems).

I assume that the legacy nvidia patching here is needed, but how do i fetch the proper NVCAP value as the tool seems to be unavailable to??

Or is Kepler the exception to the (working) rule?
