Now you can start the instalation without problem (I guess).

 

 

How install

 

UEFI Setup Configuration and Installation

UEFI configuration
 
- Shutdown and insert the flash.
- Power on with DEL pressed to enter BIOS setup.
- Change value: Periphelrals - Initial Display to IGP
- Change value: Periphelrals - USB Configuration - XHCI Hand-off to ENABLE
- Change value: Chipset - VT-d to DISABLE
- Change value: Chipset - Internal Graphics to ENABLE
- Change value: Chipset - DVMT Pre-Allocated to 128M

- Save & Exit Setup

 

- Now, hold the F12

- In the list, select your flash drive.

- It will show twice. One with UEFI prefix and another without.

- Select with UEFI prefix. Ie.: "UEFI: Sandisk Cruzer"

 

The installer will start. 


Format destination disk

Format the disk with GUID partition mapping and name it "HD".

- Select Disk Utility in the list, then press Continue.
- Click in View, then "Show All Devices".
- Select the destination Disk, then Erase.
- Name: HD, Format: APFS and Scheme: GUID Partition Map

Close Disk Utility.

Select "Install macOS", then Continue.
Follow instructions in screen.

After install

After first part install the system will reboot.

The second part of the installation will begin. This will take 16 minutes.
 

Post installation

Install bootloader
 
When the second part of install finish, the system will reboot again.

After performing the user initial setup and go to the desktop, you need to install Clover on internal disk.

Open the Clover installer inside flash drive that you copied before.

Use same options above but choose the system partition this time.

Now you need to replace the EFI folder inside your destination disk EFI parittion, with EFI folder inside flash card EFI partition.

If the flash drive EFI partition of your destination disk or flash drive is unmounted:

Mount with terminal "sudo diskutil mount /dev/rdiskXs1". To know what X is, use "diskutil list", most likely is 0 for destination disk and 1 for flash drive.

 

Then, eject the flash drive.

 

Last step

 

Move all Kexts from EFI partition to /Library/Extensions, with those commands in Terminal:

sudo cp -R /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.14/* /Library/Extensions/
sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions
sudo kextcache -i /

Restart the system.

 

 

It's done!

 

 

Updates

 

System update 10.14.6

 

- Download and open latest CloverConfigurator

- Open Mount EFI and click in Mount Partition in EFI Partitions list

- Click in Open Partition that appears

- Go to EFI -> CLOVER

- Backup config.plist and ACPI folder to desktop

- Go back and delete CLOVER folder

(If you restart now you can't boot in macOS - DON'T RESTART)

- Download latest Clover and install (link and config above)

- Replace config.plist and ACPI folder from your desktop

 

- Update Lilu.kext, AppleALC.kext, WhateverGreen.kext, HWSensors kexts (FakeSMC, ACPIMonitor, IntelCPUMonitor, ITEIT87x) in /Library/Extensions/

- Run:

 

sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions
sudo kextcache -i /

 

 

- Install macOS Update 10.14.6 and restart

Followed this guide to a T and installed Mojave successfully. Great work!

I do seem to experience major artefacts/glitches in the window server though. Started occurring after switching from IntelGraphicsFixup to the new WhateverGreen. Any ideas?

I'm sorry. Notifications were turned off ...

 

In addition to installing the Kexts, did you do the procedure below?

Displayport not working for me (monitor looses signal when driver is loaded), HDMI fine (even 4K@60Hz on 2.0 port).

I'm using iMac18,1 model, maybe need change that to enable DP port of the motherboard.

I don't have the DP cable. Try and tell me if works.

Tried many different ones (MacPro6,1 and various iMacs) with no luck. I will just reroute the cables and use HDMI.
Now I have an annoying problem with external USB drives being recognized as internal ones (and that forces me to set internal disks as visible on desktop in Finder).
I didn't do a clean install but upgraded from High Sierra (where everything was working fine, DP included), guess my configs must be a bit messed up.:(

I bought a DP cable and I also have problems. It seems that the cable is infinitely reconnecting. I'll see about this later.

 

About the external driver appear as internal i have the same issue, I think the system think the USBs are internal. Look this:

I'll try to fix it.

I have the same motherboard. So, this is what I did to make Audio Work:

 

In config.plist, Devices -> Audio -> Inject = 7

 

Reboot, and you will have audio over HDMI. Didn't test the actual audio ports.

Credits to Hackintosher forum.

 

Actually I don't use HDMI audio. I'm testing audio_CloverALC right now. The audio output works, but input not work because of layout-id = 2 that I'm using in place of layout-id 1 that Mojave drop it.

@NeedForSpeed73 Fixed it!

 

Followed this guide: Intel FB-Patcher v1.5.0

 

- Add USBInjextAll.kext to /EFI/CLOVER/Kexts/Other

- Add XHCI-300-series-injector.kext to /EFI/CLOVER/Kexts/Other

- Add Port Limit Patch (already patched in my guide)

- Restart

- Open Intel FB-Patcher

- Go to General > USB

- Insert and remove a USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 on each port

- All ports used becames Green

- Define alls connectors as USB3, except that used by the Bluetooth on Wifi Card must be Internal

- Select and delete others ports (not green)

- Click in Export

- Move the USBPorts.kext to /Library/Extensions

- Fix permissions and cache

- Remove USBInjectAll.kext, XHCI-300-series-injector.kext and Port Limit from Kernel and Kext Patches - KextsToPatch in config.plist

- Restart

 

In my case that my PC is on the bench and I don't have external ports, I have: HS03, HS04, HS05, HS06, HS07, HS08, HS10 (Internal Bluetooth), SS03, SS04, SS05, SS06, SS07, SS08.

 

Although I followed the procedure to the letter, I had a problem. After reopening the Intel FB-Patcher to verify, only until port 0x15 was appearing with USBPorts.kext that was generated. I needed to open the Kext Info.plist file with Xcode.app and change the port-count tag from <15000000> to <18000000>. 0x18 was the highest port I identified (SS08). Maybe it's an Intel FP-Patcher bug. After that, all the doors recognized normally.

Thanks Eduardo, I followed the your guide and at a certain point, I guess before the "cleanup" of USBInjectAll and XHCI-300 everything was working. THEN, I MESSED IT ALL UP: now no USB3 port work at all with 3.0 devices (2.0 are fine).
How can I revert back and start over? I tried to re-run the USB Mohave installer, but with no luck.

After performing the user initial setup and go to the desktop, you need to install Clover on internal disk.

Open the Clover installer inside flash drive that you copied before.

Use same options above but choose the system partition this time.

Now you need to replace the config.plist inside your destination disk EFI parittion with config.plist inside flash card EFI partition.

The flash drive EFI partition is unmounted. Mount with terminal "sudo diskutil mount /dev/rdiskXs1". To know what X is, use "diskutil list", most likely is 1.

 

Last step

 

Copy all Kexts from flash drive to /Library/Extensions, with those commands in Terminal:


sudo cp -R /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.14/* /Library/Extensions/
sudo chmod -Rf 755 /Library/Extensions
sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /Library/Extensions
sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
sudo kextcache -system-caches

Restart the system.

 

 

It's done!


 
And last but not least

Thanks Eduardo, I followed the your guide and at a certain point, I guess before the "cleanup" of USBInjectAll and XHCI-300 everything was working. THEN, I MESSED IT ALL UP: now no USB3 port work at all with 3.0 devices (2.0 are fine).
How can I revert back and start over? I tried to re-run the USB Mohave installer, but with no luck. 

 

If you followed exactly my instructions and put the genereated USBPorts.kext inside /Library/Extensions, you probably don't fixed the permissions...

 

Run this in Terminal:

sudo chmod -R 755 /Library/Extensions
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Library/Extensions
sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
sudo kextcache -system-caches

If don't work, send me the USBPorts.kext and config.plist (remove your Serial, MLB, etc)

I have the same motherboard. So, this is what I did to make Audio Work:

 

In config.plist, Devices -> Audio -> Inject = 7

 

Reboot, and you will have audio over HDMI. Didn't test the actual audio ports.

Actually I don't use HDMI audio. I'm testing audio_CloverALC right now. The audio output works, but input not work because of layout-id = 2 that I'm using in place of layout-id 1 that Mojave drop it.

 

@khamsakamal48 Using AppleALC with Lilu I was able to make the onboard audio and HDMI work perfectly. Even with the microphone. The layout-id = 7 worked that a beauty.

 

Guide updated.

Mess is growing: I re-run the Mojave installer and now I have problems with graphics (stutters and very long boot time due to IGPU retrying many times to do something). I attach pics of the USB situation and config.plist. But don't struggle too much on it: next week I will change some hardware on this machine (new discrete videocard) so I guess I'll do a clean install of both Windows and OSX; this one has been upgraded at least two times (since Sierra or maybe even ElCap) and I guess it's full of garbage.

Thanks for your time.

Hi @Luan Eduardo

 

please find my clover folder attached – I set up everything to use as little patching as possible.

 

DP and secondary eth work (needs modded FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext + SmallTreeIntel82576.kext) – running in dual-4k@60hz over here.

 

Also added ig-platform-id through ssdt-2 and some cosmetics (built-ins, device names etc).

 

Also all USB ports, including the front USB3.0 ones, work as expected.

 

Credits to @MaLd0n for the initial patched dsdt-version.

F5

 

btw: not sure if CodecCommander and WhateverGreen is needed – going to check on that next week

 

Edit: Forgot to say that I'm using an original Apple BCM94360CS2 WiFi/BT card via a NGFF adapter..

 

My system only boot with F1, tried F2, F3, F4, F5 and the new F10, and only the F1 works.

 

Tried all the three MemoryFix of Clover, tried with only one Ram module too...

 

Tried serveral UEFI options. IGFX and Discrete Card, CSM on and off, Secure Boot on and off, with everything don't work...

 

If boot with verbose, I stop in this:

If don't use verbose the system reboots in loop.

Hi @Luan Eduardo

It works.No second NIC 

my setup is

i5-8600, 960evo, 32gb, F10

 

On DP I am experiencing some random flickers and video artefacts and the display "reboots" often (goes off and comes back up rapidly).

HDMI appears to be solid atm will test more. 

 

edit:

Changing the DP cable fixed all the problems. Oddly enough the cable works with no problem on High Sierra.

Hi @Luan Eduardo (I'm BR too hehe). Thanks for your post. It helped me a lot.

I hope I can help you too. I used some configs from my High Sierra setup in the mojave one and I managed to make DP and its audio interface work. I didn't tested the 2nd eth interface since I use only wifi. 

I have the exactly same build you have (i8700, z370n wifi, bcm BCM94352Z). I'ts very similar to yours except for some arbitrary device properties and some kexttopatch.

 

I hope it helps you https://www.dropbox.com/s/v4ao0vqdzvk078m/EFI.zip?dl=0

I‘ll post my bios config for this setup early next week as I am not @home right now..

 

@TheMaxx32000 Can you pass me your EFI configuration?

I bought 32GB and started having problems on memtest86. Only solved with F10 version, but with it I can not start macOS, I'm using Windows in the meantime...

Luan EduardoTnx.

All Works, but - "Download the BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext, BrcmPatchRAM.kext and BrcmNonPatchRAM.kext from here" - not correct link

And Bluetooth works only with all kext in package:

BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext, BrcmPatchRAM.kext BrcmNonPatchRAM.kext, BrcmFirmwareData.kext, BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmNonPatchRAM2.kext

 

@alexiley Fixed

@registracii It probably has something to do with Framebuffer.

@ivan_htp Only being able to start the system with the BIOS / EFI version F1. But I'm being forced to use the F10 version because of the new memories. As soon as I can figure it out I'll take a look. Thank you.
