Barncore Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I've cloned my old imac's system onto an external HD using Carbon Copy Cloner. The old system is Sierra 10.12.6. It has all of my audio/music work on it from the past 8 years. It’s essential for my career that i have my old HD moved onto my new system.My new Hackintosh is: i7 8700 cpu, Gigabyte Z370N Wifi Motherboard, onboard graphics (uhd 630). High Sierra is OS on the boot drive. Mounted in the new Hackintosh is a 250gb nvme ssd and a 1TB HD. I want to move what’s on this external HD onto the new 1TB HD. What’s the best way to go about this process? Do i need to edit anything in the EFI? Or BIOS? I will try straight cloning it from external HD to internal HD while being logged into the internet nvme ssd. But is there anything i need to know before i do?I tried to plug the external HD straight into into my new Hackintosh via USB and boot with it. No dice. It loaded for quite a while with the apple logo and then when it got about 65% in it went to the error screen: This gives me the impression that clone may have problems too. Can somebody fill me in on the information i require to get this to work? Thanks so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barncore Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) I already did have Clover installed, EFI was set up and config was done. I was talking about cloning to a secondary HD. Anyway CorpNewt helped me solve it, and what fixed it was faking the CPU ID + adding a kext called XHCI-unsupported. Now i can choose to boot either my 10.13.6 nvme ssd or my 10.12.6 HD. Stoked!
