My first Mac Powerbook 165c is power on but 128mb hard drive crash. I'm here with my HP Z800 & HPZ840 Hackintosh.

The best Distro is Manjaro Linux Gnome.

All these posts with pics of the golden age of Apple OS, got me feeling all nostalgic and young again.

Awww Bro you're just a youngster!!!! Well maybe not quite, but I am beating you by an extra 3 years. Long may we reign to see the next Apple OS and perhaps the inevitable (hopefully not too soon) death of Hackintosh.

Im here too See this old screenshots

Glad to See @Andy Vandijck and @spakk are still on the scene.

@Anto65 Grazie!! 🇮🇹 🇧🇷 Hi all, im using a program release from our friend and coder, @chris1111 its very useful https://github.com/chris1111/Download_Install_macOS/releases/tag/V1 Enjoy

Mieze So, just tried out your driver with a X540-T2 that I got from eBay for a whopping $25......fantastic! Works great, and very fast - considerably faster than the Aquantia I have been using. Great work! It worked in Ventura, Sonoma (14.5 B2), and Ubuntu/Mint. I had a bit of trouble in Windows 11, but was able to find a driver and work around there and once that was done, it was working in all of my installed betas (the machine I use them on is an Intel Z790 Asus motherboard and I don't really use that for production needs, just for betas of various Operating Systems). The main point is that 10G adapter is working on all of them, and working extremely well in my two Mac installations thanks to you. Thank you!

I needed a spare HP EliteDesk Mini, so I picked up a very cheap 800 G4 Mini that includes the AMD dGPU. Looking forward to creating an EFI for it that works with the RX560.

@eSaF The saying goes "let sleeping dogs lie", with that one just cannot be "bitten". Greetings Henties

@loganMac - It really was unnecessary to clean install to get rid of the two problems you listed. As @Mirone advised clearing out the files from /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports Folder would have solved the 'Shut Down Popup' problem. The Processor problem is related to wrong or incorrect data in the config.plist. Happy you got sorted with a clean install but going forward, hopefully you won't have to solve every problem that way.

Which Sonoma would be good after applying the change? The same 14.4.1?

@loganMac, Fix First problem: Set processorType = 4097 in your SMBIOS. Fix second problem: go to /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports delete all files, or delete those files that are related to the warning.

Well I've Got My Early 2008 iMac Running With Monterey On 2GB Ram Not Too Shabby, I Will Be Upgrading The Ram And Throwing An SSD In As Well

I know several errors in System Information since Tiger time so I trust ioreg.

Update done, but this update i must install via installAssitant.pkg file, can't upgrade as normal

Uoooowww!!! Very Nice!!!

Done

I'm Putting Together Some Files That ARE Needed If You WANT To Go The Snow Leopard Path YOU CAN'T BEAT THE 3D DOCK!! I'll Post A Link Soon Nice Pictures

Are you sure you aren't iDeneb author? 😅

There are good news to report since the last update 10 days ago. As Intel is going to stop production of the X540 this year, many retailers are selling out their inventory of X540 based cards offering rebates on these adapters. On AliExpress there are several offers for X540 adapters below 20€ so that I decided to give it a try and ordered one of these cards last week for a little bit more than 10€, shipping included. At first I was quite sceptic about the card's quality, in particular as the retailer mentioned that it may not work with certain mainboards and that the adapter runs very hot, but after it arrived last Monday, I am extremely happy with the purchase and can confirm that the card is more than worth the money. Here is a photo of the card: The quality is quite good, although there has been some dirt on the PCIe connector, but the heatsink is adequate for such a power hungry card. Nevertheless, it runs quite hot when both ports are active so that you can't touch it anymore but that's not unusual for passively cooled X540 adapters. Besides the second RJ-45 connector, there is a jumper (see the red arrow) to disable the second port allowing you to save power (and limit heat dissipation) in case it is not needed. Unfortunately the retailer didn't lie when he mentioned that the card may not work in certain mainboards. My Asrock H97M-Pro4 will immediately shut down on power-on with the card installed. Therefore I installed it in the PEG slot of my MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Plus and it worked perfectly without a single issue. Maybe it's because a powerful Gaming mainboard is designed to cope with the power consumption of high-end GPUs? Both systems are equipped with a 400W PSU. Anyway, you need a good airflow in your case when using such a card. Running stability tests I haven't noticed a single connection drop but after two days of testing you can't tell anything about long term stability. I wouldn't use this for my home server, in particular because of the power consumption (according to Intel the X540 the typical power consumption with one port active is 10.8W and 17.4W with both ports active), but for a test system or first steps with 10Gbit Ethernet it's the perfect solution, although I would recommend the X520 with a DAC cable, provided you only have to bridge a distance of up to 5 meter because it's the cheapest and most power efficient solution (~0.1W per active port) or a 10GBase-SR SPF+ module with a multi-mode fibre cable, which also consumes less power (~0.6W per active port) than 10GBase-T (~3W per active port). As a result of my testing I was able to fix some issues and improve IntelLucy. The result of my work, version 1.0.3 has been published a few minutes ago and is available in the download section or on GitHub. Also, I would like to thank you all for your support of the project and your testing efforts. Have fun❣️

AMD kernel patches are good

No issues. Everything works.

👍

Thank you for the help. The reason I did clean installation because maybe I did something wrong causing a bug on my side. For me, I don't mine starting fresh because I don't have any app installed on my computer plus I can better track where my mistake started.

The messages are related to DVD drive.

Thank you Chris1111

Hi Chris1111, do you know if MediaTekl wifi 7 and intel wifi 7 kext files are ready for Hackintosh or still in progress!

It wakes every two hours for a 30 seconds. I still can't prevent this.

No INSTAHackintosh Is All I Did, BUT They May Have Used It

I should notice that HDAU name forces AppleHDA to attach to the device. As it doesn't work then you may rename the device to HDMI and then use VoodooHDA with setting <key>IONameMatch</key> <string>HDMI</string>

@jalavoui By any chance, can I modify the code as follows and also add the GPU Sku Bypass patch? I took the Sku Bypass binary patch from NBlue, added, modified, built, and applied the patch for kextIntelICL, but booting stopped. void IGFX::ForceCompleteModeset::processFramebufferKext(KernelPatcher &patcher, size_t index, mach_vm_address_t address, size_t size) { // AppleIntelFramebufferController::hwSetMode skip hwRegsNeedUpdate static const uint8_t f2[] = {0xE8, 0x31, 0xE5, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0x84, 0xC0, 0x74, 0x3D}; static const uint8_t r2[] = {0xE8, 0x31, 0xE5, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0x84, 0xC0, 0xEB, 0x3D}; // GPU Sku Bypass Bad Hack in IntelAccelerator::getGPUInfo static const uint8_t f[] = { 0x41, 0x8B, 0x84, 0x24, 0x88, 0x11, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x8B, 0x8C, 0x24, 0x90, 0x11, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x89, 0x8C, 0x24, 0xCC, 0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x89, 0x84, 0x24, 0xD0, 0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x83, 0xF9, 0x02, 0x74, 0x4D, }; static const uint8_t r[] = { 0x41, 0x8B, 0x84, 0x24, 0x88, 0x11, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x8B, 0x8C, 0x24, 0x90, 0x11, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x89, 0x8C, 0x24, 0xCC, 0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x41, 0x89, 0x84, 0x24, 0xD0, 0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x83, 0xF9, 0x02, 0xEB, 0x56, }; KernelPatcher::LookupPatch patch { &kextIntelICLLPFb, f2, r2, sizeof(f2), 1 }; patcher.applyLookupPatch(&patch); KernelPatcher::LookupPatch patch2 { &kextIntelICL, f, r, sizeof(f), 1 }; patcher.applyLookupPatch(&patch2); } I tried applying the Sku Bypass v2 patch instead of the bad hack, but it still stops booting.

OFF Topic maybe controverse To me a SSDT Full Hack will never be up to a full patch DSDT I speak from experience on all the HP laptops that I have had and believe me that I have had many We will never know the real reason why Rehabman switched to SSDT when he brilliantly used the DSDT Full patch to its full potential; like @MaLd0n DSDT patch I have my own idea as to why but I'll keep it to myself. People who have never used DSDT full patch on their laptop cannot understand but the day you do it and get there you will understand.

Fernando, thanks for posting this. I just got two of these from work, they were going to recycle them. I figured I'd give macOS a shot, and found your post. You didnt mention if the WebCam works? Can you confirm? Thanks again for your time posting this EFI.
