I’ve succesfull installed Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6 on my Asus G73sw.
Specifications:
- Intel 2630QM-I7 / HM65

- Nvidia Geforce GTX460m


 So what is needed to install Sierra on a Asus G73sw?

1)       Install Clover with Mac OS Sierra on a bootable USB

2)       Copy FakeSMC.kext , USBInjectAll.kext and VoodooPS2Controller to USB\EFI\CLOVER\kexts\Other\ folder

3)       Copy HFSPlus-64 , CsmVideoDxe-64 (needed full resolution in Clover) and OsxAptioFixDrv-64 to USB\EFI\CLOVER\drivers64UEFI\ folder

4)       Install Mac OS Sierra

 

After the installation you reach the desktop.

FIRST install Clover with the following settings:
                - Installation for UEFI motherboards
                - Install Clover in the ESP
                - Drivers64UEFI ->
 OsxAptioFixDrv-64
                - Drivers64UEFI -> CsmVideoDxe-64
                - Install RC scripts on targetvolume
                - Install Clover preference panel

 

Copy HFSPlus-64 to EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/ folder

 

After that, install the following kexts with your favorite kext installer:


                - FakeSMC.kext                    ->            Always needed
                - VoodooPS2Controller          ->            Needed to use your keyboard
                - USBInjectAll                      ->            Needed to use USB2.0 ports
                - ACPIBatteryManager          ->            Shows batterystatus
                - AsusNBFnKeys                  ->            Needed to use FN keys
                - AppleALC + Lilu                ->            Needed to get audio working
                - RealtekRTL8111               ->            Needed to get LAN working (can’t test, LAN card defect)

 

As last, copy the DSDT (many thanks to MaLd0n for creating the DSDT file) file to EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/PATCHED/

 

Reboot and see what is working:

 

-          Nvidia Geforce GTX460m         ->            Config.plist

-          Wifi                                       ->            DSDT

-          Audio                                    ->            DSDT + AppleALC + Lilu

-          USB2.0                                  ->            USBInjectall

-          Batterypercentage                  ->            DSDT

-          Asus FN keys                         ->            AsusNBFnKeys

 

And what is not working:

 

-          USB3.0 (Fresco Logic xHCI(USB3))

-          Keyboard backlight

-          Brightness FN key

-          Cardreader

-          Bluetooth

 

As last, I’m unable to generate a SSDT with ssdtPRGen.sh from Piker-Alpha. I’ve got the following error (see attached picture):

 

The MacBookPro10,1 SMBios has an board-ID that is not compatible with my Sandy Bridge laptop. So I tried a few things:

-          Change the SMBios to MacBookPro8,2

           Reboot -> Black screen

-          Changed the SMBIOS to MacBookPro8,2 and add the below to KextToPatch
           com.apple.driver.AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy
           BA050000 00
           BA000000 00
           Prevent AGDP from loading
           Reboot -> Apple bar won’t load

-         Changed the SMBIOS to MacBookPro8,2 and changed productname to iMac13,2
          Reboot -> Apple bar load but get a blackscreen

-         Changed the SMBIOS to MacBookPro8,2 and changed productname to iMac13,2 and add the below to KextToPatch
           com.apple.driver.AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy
           BA050000 00
           BA000000 00
           Prevent AGDP from loading

          Reboot -> laptop boots good

 

With the MacBookPro8,2 SMBIOS and the changed productname I’m still unable to generate an SSDT.

 

So, can someone help me to:

 

-          Generate a correct SSDT

-          Get USB3.0 working

-          Get Keyboard backlight working

-          Get Brightness FN key working

-          Get Cardreader working

-          Get Bluetooth working
