Disable SIP from Clover. That is the NVRAM protection

nvram -c clears my nvram. its just the error though

 

Hi

I've same issue with csractiveconfig=0X3E7 in config.plist: Error clearing firmware variables: (iokit/common) not permitted. However SIP is desactivated.

 

So, I reboot into recovery partition. In terminal: nvram -xp (display all variables). Type nvram -c without issues. Re-type nvram -xp no more data... Reboot/ All work fine.

 

You can also use latest app created by cyberdevs @Moviemakergr tell you in a previous post

Hi all,

 

I'm having some GFX glitches on Mojave... it all seems to work fine, even with games... (QE/CI is enabled) however the glitches are very noticeable with google maps on safari...very noticeable when zooming in and out ...I remember I had this issue with High Sierra at the time and I think some Lilu plug-ins fixed it (InterlGFXfixup or 4600Azulpatcher) however it's not working on Mojave...this is a has well laptop with intelhd4600 gfx card... I'm running the latest clover with the latest Lilu and now the whatevergreen kext instead of IntelGFXFixup...

 

Thanks for any help!

Test is done.

Works fine here with Core2 Duo E7400 CPU with only SSE4.1, without SSE4.2.

Replace only one file from 10.13.5.

/System/Library/UserEventPlugins/com.apple.telemetry.plugin

Thank god........ they fixed the stupid TextEdit and Preview closing bug using the hotkey CMD+Q. That was so..... freaking annoying.

Successful clean install of Mojave DB5_18A347e on my legacy BIOS Dell XPS1530 (Core2Duo Penryn with Geforce 8600M GT).  

 

Installation was on HFS+ partition following @Asentientbot's instructions (booted into my High Sierra partition and launching patched OSInstall.mpkg).   On first boot into Mojave, I used single user mode to rebuild the prelinkedkernel and system caches ...

 

Spoiler

 

Patch the installer
1. Get a copy of the install app and open Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg
2. Copy the folder Packages somewhere you can edit
3. cd to the folder and pkgutil --expand OSInstall.mpkg Expanded
4. Open the folder Expanded and open Distribution in a text editor
5. Find the function InstallationCheck(prefix) and put return true; at the very beginning
6. Remove the text installsOS=true from the same file
7. pkgutil --flatten Expanded Patched.mpkg
You will now have an install file "Patched.mpkg" that you can double-click and install to a HFS+ partition.

 

Patch the installed system to boot
1. On the partition, copy boot.efi from /usr/standalone/i386/ to /System/Library/CoreServices
2. Open /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist in a text editor
3. Make Kernel Flags as <string>-v -no_compat_check keepsyms=1</string>
This will make the disk bootable, bypass the prohibitory symbol (\) and show symbols in kernel panic logs (If it panics, let it reboot and pick your High Sierra partition; it should automatically show the log in "your computer was restarted because of a problem" dialog once it boots.)

 

Fix the kernel panic on Penryn systems
Patch /S/L/UserEventPlugins/com.apple.telemetry.plugin - replace "Mojave" with the name of your partition.

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x28\x07\x00\x00\x85|\xC8\x06\x00\x00\x85|g' /Volumes/Mojave/System/Library/UserEventPlugins/com.apple.telemetry.plugin/Contents/MacOS/com.apple.telemetry

Patch USB
Replace from High Sierra:
/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBHostFamily.kext

 

Recognize the Tesla GPU
Copy from High Sierra:

• NVDANV50HalTesla.kext
• NVDAResmanTesla.kext
• IONDRVSupport.kext
• IOGraphicsFamily.kext

This allows changing the brightness and shows the correct display in About This Mac

 

Enable the framebuffer and acceleration
Copy from High Sierra:

• GeForceTesla.kext

   patch this kext from terminal 

sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x48\x8b\x07\xff\x90\xc0\x00\x00\x00|\x48\x8b\x07\x66\x0f\x1f\x44\x00\x00|g' /Volumes/Mojave/System/Library/Extensions/GeForceTesla.kext/Contents/MacOS/GeForceTesla

 

• GeForceGA.kext
• GeForceTeslaGLDriver.bundle
• GeForceTeslaVADriver.bundle

On first boot into Mojave, fix kext permissions, rebuild prelinkedkernel and system caches in single user mode

/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /
chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions
chown -R 0:0 /System/Library/Extensions
touch /System/Library/Extensions && kextcache -u /
reboot

Just updated to beta 5. Once again as usual each update removes my sound drivers (see below) and requires me to reinstall them. Other then that all went smooth. 

[PMheart]

Hi,

 

New patches for 10.14 Beta 5 (18A347e)

Enjoy.

[Matgen84]

Hi

All works fine after update to Beta 5.  Except: eficheck dump files generated by macOS, like Beta 4 update. What is it? Any solution. Please.

Thanks 

 

It seems that this error only occurs during the first session after the update. I do not have this problem on High Sierra. I don't understand why?

Changed the address book? Here this update does not appear at all

No issues with Beta 5 so far. Gear icon under Settings/Privacy and screensaver preview are fixed.

Audio MIDI is working fine until I hit red circle to close it. Then I get crash report. If I close it using CMD+Q, or from menubar, no crash. I left it open for over an hour and played with it, no crash.
