[SgtSaber]

Hi. I try since a week to install El Capitan on my Desktop PC.

[Dwarfy]

Use this guide.

 

You need FakeSMC.kext, AptioFix2, test2.efi. HFSplus-64.efi. And you need to make a specific config.plist. 

 

best step by step help will be on the chat. 

[SgtSaber]

THX

 

Now I am at step 4

 

Step 4:

Now its time to add all the kext, patched

DSDT (if you use one) and

SSDT (if you use one)

the required kext is FakeSMC, 10.10 shown in below pic but add a new folder and name it 10.11 for El Captian

 

 

Where can I get this?

I can Google four it but dont know witch is the right four my System.

 

Or that is not system-related?​

 

​

 

 

​

[Dwarfy]

No need for SSDTs and DSDTs for install, do that for post install.

 

here is fakesmc.

[Dwarfy]

If you have problems making a config, delete the config-sample-small.plist and the stock config.plist and then add this.

Use this guide.

test2.efi? isnt that suppose to be the aptiofix2, or i missed something

[Dwarfy]

test2.efi? isnt that suppose to be the aptiofix2, or i missed something

Apparently some x99 systems don't get into the installer if they have too many PCIe cards. Test2.efi helps. 

 

Test2.efi

[SgtSaber]

Is this the fake smc?

HWSensors.6.19.1406.Binaries.dmg

[SgtSaber]

Starting / installing from USB doesn´t work.

Here some pics from Clover

I chose Install in Clover menue .... than comes the apple ... pc reboot

 

Someone an Idea why I cant install?

[Dwarfy]

Is this the fake smc?

HWSensors.6.19.1406.Binaries.dmg

No, but it contains FakeSMC.kext

[SgtSaber]

Now it looks like this ....  

Any Ideas?

[LockDown]

check your usb drive as you are getting SAM hence the waitting for root device

[SgtSaber]

I dont know what u mean.

IT testet in USB 2.0 and 3.0

I testet in Front USB and back side

 

[Dwarfy]

Try with cpus=1 

try without test2.efi

try changing the AptioFix 

[SgtSaber]

Maybe you see something wrong.

[Dwarfy]

Disable ASmedia for the install. 

[SgtSaber]

I tryed different settings in bios.

 

Sam Multimedia: READ or WRITE failed

Missing Bluetooth Controler

 

 

[SgtSaber]

Will try tomorrow to handle IT

[Dwarfy]

Delete test2.efi and add lowmem driver. 

[Fljagd]

Will try tomorrow to handle IT

in bios must disable the serial port (com) not ASmedia

[SgtSaber]

@Fljagd Thx.

Test IT Sonday

[Fljagd]

@Fljag Thx.

Test IT Sonday

Cool 

[SgtSaber]

It doesn´t work

 

No Idea what i do wrong, but there must something i do wrong
