Hi, Guys!

Is it possible to run Sierra under AMD Athlon X2 270? It has SSE4a, but no SSSE3.

 

When not, what OS is working perfectly on this CPU?

 

P.S. Video - Radeon HD6670

 

Thanks in advance!

Here your cpu, look under cpu features,  you have to be patient until a new kernel is built for older amd cpus:  Cpuboss.com/cpu/AMD-Athlon-II-X2-270

Getting the error:

 

CPU disabled by guest operating system

 

Specs:
AMD FX 8350

XFX RX 480 8GB

 

Not sure if GPU was needed, but added it just incase.

 

Did everything correctly as you are supposed to when trying to run Sierra; adding vmdk file, adding smc.version = "0" etc.

I did notice that the vmx edits itself back if that could be a cause I don't know. Thanks for any help that can be provided. <3

Ahh so you are running it in a VM. How have you set it up? Is this the installer or is it a premade one?

Premade one I believe. The download says "macOS Sierra 10.12 files" and it's an 8GB vmdk. I set it up as you are supposed to by using the patch files, and removing hard disk and adding the 8GB file.

It'll be premade for Intel though. You'd need to somehow mount the virtual hdd and replace the kernel. And depending on the bootloader used boot without caches but if Clover is used this won't work. You are better installing physically unless someone else has a better idea.

You mean like installing fresh (brand new OS)? I was just wanting to add to VM for xcode and such. If there isn't a kind of simple way to do it then it's all good just saw a few people have gotten it to work so thought there was a different ISO or something.

You'll probably find an El Capitan VM image somewhere. Installing to a VM with AMD isn't that easy.

Do you mind linking me? Everywhere that I have checked so far hasn't worked for me. I'll give whatever a read, curious to get this working but if a ton of stuff is needed to be done then I just won't attempt it. :P

Hi,  I get solid freeze if I try to download files or access shared fold over network.

 

I've tried both Bronya and Shanee's kernel, same thing.  I can not find anything in the logs.

 

I deleted all network devices and put the back.  Did not see to do anything.

I tried add-on Intel card and onboard ethernet.  Same thing.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you

First install the current Enoch bootloader, normally not with the option ESP, then replace the first Extra folder

 

Edit:

I do not know if your motherboard needs  VIA or NForce drivers, I add in the appendix another Extra folder (Extra_2) with the appropriate chipset drivers. if the system should not boot, then exchange the folder against the other and start again.
 

Try with using enoch bootloader

i ,thank you , i have installed sierra , but after the instalation , when  i reboot , i have black screen and reboot juste after :

"setting Legacy USB OFF on xHC

XHCI Legacy OFF done

Setting Legacy USB off on controller

Yeah you'll need to copy it to System/Library/Kernels and the kexts into Extensions. If it's easier download this and put the folder onto the root of the USB, https://www.dropbox.com/s/dc02ihzhjldcdxz/Sierra%20Post%20Install.zip?dl=0

ok so i work, ahem yes and no , i can entrer on welcome screen but my mouse and my keyboard not responding , but if a touch my mouse i have this message "AMFI: allowing exception handler for "WindowServer" (122) because SIP is disabled." any idea?
