Guys, just a tip, i've a Pentium G3258 (Haswell), and i made the createinstallmedia method, all went fine until i start the usb install, kp after kp. So, if someone have the same issue, just put the FakeSMC.kext on Other folder, DSDT on ACPI / patched folder, use the iMac13,1 Smbios and use WestemereX cpuid on FakeCpuid ( 0206F0 ), doing it i reach the install screen, installed all and now i use the Haswell FakeCpuid ( 0306C0 ) and my MacPro5,1 Smbios as i used before  and all works fine.

I think it's irrelevant, but i've used the flags -xpcm kext-dev-mode=1 rootless=0.

Hope it helps.

  • Certain SATA controllers will still have issues with AppleAHCIPort v329 (eg ICH10, 5 series, 7 series, ASMedia 1061) ---> Disks may fail to initialize, not readable or hot plug may fail.  AppleAHCIPort.kext v328 with version bundle 999.1.1 survives upgrade if installed in /L/E, and is loaded in preference to v329

And it's necessary delete the original one inside S/L/E?

 

Thanks

No, you can leave the original in /S/L/E if you install my modded AppleAHCIPort.kext v328 in /L/E. 

 

Since it has a higher bundle version (999.1.1), it will be loaded in preference to the original kext (v329) in /S/L/E, once you update the kext cache :).

Oh well, I restored Sierra to my system drive.  I will have to continue working on getting High Sierra fully functional before I put it back on my main installation.  The problems?  No brightness adjustment, no sleep, no power off.  All seem to be ACPI-related.  I have my work cut out for me.

For power off issue (and also restart & logoff + Sleep) also happened on my nvidia gf119 as well, till I replaced native NVDAResman.kext with DP1 has. It's little bit strange if also occurred on IntelHD Graphics, but I'm not sure what caused it.

How about a little free app named "Boot Buddy"..? it's just another GUI version of createinstallmedia though, but U could always try it first.

I've used it since 10.13 DP1, at least when I was lazy to open Terminal  :rolleyes:

You have also  Install Disk Creator working good  :lol:  :P

 

 

 

Select USB Drive

Select OS X .app Installer

Fix for ICH10 with High Sierra.

 

I made the binary patch for AppleAHCIPort.kext allowing new kext to work correctly  with ICH10 Sata controllers. Here is:

4585F60F 95C289C8 83E0FE66 85C9780F 84D2750B -> 89C883E0 FE6685C9 0F98C141 08CC9090 9090750B

It can be used with any bootloader who can patch kexts on the fly. Or manually change it in any hex editor or command line.

This is how it looks with bootloader:

And here is the result:

Good luck! ;)

It works here on my 5 series GAP55aUD3 as well :).  All disks detected, even with vanilla AppleAHCIPort.kext v329 loaded...

Hi,

 

i'm having problems currently on updating from the macOS High Sierra Beta to High Sierra Final. Tried everything, OTA Update, Boot via USB Flash Drive. Just nothing works.

I'm always stuck in the loading screen and the picture is just frozen with the Apple Logo and the loading circle. 

 

I have to say that i had some of these crazy problems the time i installed the beta too. I used the EFI folder from @cyberdevs and got it working. After updating i put back my EFI folder and everything worked fine.

Maybe i have the same problem again? I already updated the SMBIOS.

 

I'm currently using these SMBIOS settings:

 

BiosVersion: MP61.88Z.0120.B00.1708080652
Release Date: 08/08/2017
Firmware Features: 0xE80FE136
Features Mask: 0xFF1FFF3F
Plattform Features: 0x04

 

Maybe someone is nice enough to give me his EFI folder so i can try to get it work that way? :)

does anyone tried to upgrade to High Sierra from Sierra with out converting to APFS to maintain HFS+ filesystem using:

 

/Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO

 

because my first try to upgrade it worked and I got every thing working but I notice that my clover configurator

did not recognizes the EFI partition on the installation disk

for some reason so I was using Terminal every time I want to mont the EFI partition

Thanks for your good work @Sunki  ;)

 

It's much hard to create a patch for 7-Series? Would be awesome.  :D

 

Great Job. It's much hard to create a patch for 7-Series and asmedia1061/1062? Do you have hot-plug sata with your patch?  :)

What about 7-series and asmedia? Did it work with the 328 version? Have you tried them with the patch?

 

Yes, hot-plug is working. No, it does not work .. I need to think .. Everything works finally ;)

Something has to be wrong with my system.

I see so many people getting the Update done on the fly.

Of course for some stupid reason it always doesn't work for me.

I just don't get it. My system is broken now too. Only way to start it now is with the 

-x command. Damn
