Harry Hard Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Thank's a lot for the good tips, specially for the fact, that the 2609 doesn't support hyperthreading. In 2-3 days I will switch to a SSD drive, before that I will give it a try (in the moment the system is working very nice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrielss Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Hi , I have a PM issue . CPU speed is not going to below 2.9Ghz. Geekbench Multicore score is 17000.

bilbo Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 do you have enabled the "runtime powermanagement" enabled in your bios? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amadeusex Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 @Gabrielss I myself have encountered a similar behaviour. The only thing I can recommend is trying to redo the whole Power management procedure. Even better make a complete backup of Your (so far) working configuration beforehand. I wish I could be of more help to You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbo Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 8 hours ago, Gabrielss said: yes , it's enabled I checked your files, and I can't see anything wrong. Reading again my own guide, , maybe something is not clear enough for non standard cpu models users (like you): -To generate the ssdt with ssdtprgen, and the tip of drag to desktop the ssdt1-cpu-def to avoid the error "No ACPI Processor declarations ...", the ssdt1-cpudef has to be the ssdt patched provided in the stuff folder, needed for boot from the first step, not the original extracted with F4. Maybe is this the problem? Did you get some error in ssdtprgen output? which command did you use to generate the ssdt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ho520726 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I was successfully install Mac 10.12. But once I got kernel panic, I don't what happened and I tried to reinstall and found that I can't patch RQ_and_HDEF file anymore, also I can't use AppleALC Kext. And Now I upgrade from Mac 10.12 to Mac 10.13, he same problem remains. Anyone know what is going on there? Is my motherboard broken? The one showed the message with "busy timout[0], (60s): 'IOFireWireLocalNode', happened after I patched RQ_and_HDEF and used AppleALC Kext. The other one, showed the message with "busy timeout[0], (60s): 'IOHDACodecFunction', I used AppleALC Kext without patching RQ_and_HDEF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my EFI folder for High Sierra. I've got the same cpu's - My best guess is that You could use it as is - Just generate a new serial number. https://drive.google.com/open?id=18QfKuoykb-aomQV7W6nnOEL-tTNBoeMp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilbo Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Maybe legacy / EFI boot issue? Check your bios settings and your boot options. If you use legacy boot, the settings to install clover are sighly different that the described in the guide.

amadeusex Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) @ho520726 The best course of action in cases like this is to take it from the top and try to install from scratch - It might soud tedious but a couple of hours worth of reinstalling is better than days of troubleshooting!

Planeshifter Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Thanks again Bilbo, for your great guide! I was afraid I'd have to do a full install from scratch, instead of just upgrading to High Sierra, but dreading to go through all that again, bought a backup SSD so I could freely experiment, and with success! I have an Z620 with 2x E5-2690 v2 and an NVidia K4000 GPU. First I made a clone to my 2nd SSD using Clonezilla, which copies everything needed, including the EFI partition, so the disk could directly be used to boot from. Much easier than using any other tool, and it's free. Then I removed all disks from my system and booted from that cloned disk. I updated Clover to the latest version (5.4.1.1), using the settings that Bilbo supplied in the "First boot" section. Next, I copied all the new and/or updated Kexts from Bilbo's ZIP file, from the "Final" folder. I left the 10.12 folder intact, and put all the stuff in the 10.13 (not 10.3 as is erroneously stated in the instructions) and "other" folders. I also copied the Uefi64 drivers folder. All other things stayed untouched: my own, working pllist.config (or whatever it's called, I'm not currently behind my Z) and SSDTs/DSDTs, or to keep it simple: I kept everything the same except the Kexts in 10.13 and "other" folders, the Uefi64 drivers, and the new Clover Configurator. After these changes, I rebooted to see if everything still worked, which it did. Then I did the installation of High Sierra , keeping the file system as it was - I didn't want to take the risk to change that as well. Leaving out the "--converttoapfs NO" tag will probably do the conversion to APFS if you do want that. /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO I'm happy that the upgrade completed succesfully after several reboots. After that, I used the App Store to upgrade to 10.13.6, a download of almost 3 GB - not that it appears to bring that many useful changes :-) Thanks Bilbo, and thanks to all others in this great community for sharing their knowledge!

I mean, with a clean install, you'd also have to install all your applications again, download all content again, copy over all your files - it's a lot more work. And Sierra actually worked very well for my purposes already, so there was no need at all to undertake something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amadeusex Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) Another convenient way to clone your hack is super-duper. It works while running Macos without any glitch. The built-in migration assistant is also a big timesaver whenever you're performing an upgrade. It saves you a lot of time and works flawlessly.

Thanks to xuy_ The change is open info.plist of AstekFusion2Adapter.kext , and change IOMediaicon property (into IOKitpersonalities) from "SASadapter.icns to Internal.icns".
