Mtkhan Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) Hello Guys! I'm trying to upgrade my Mackintosh by installing Mojave on my Previous build of HP Z400 running perfectly with Sierra. I'm stuck at this error saying "macOS could not be installed on your computer" I've added the same kexts as before in my previous builds and I'm not sure why its also not showing my drives in Disk Utility. I'm thinking the error could be of because this, please let me know If I'm wrong. I'm attacking the screenshots please see these; also I'm adding my plist file its been setup using enoch bootloader. I was using kexts "AHCIPortInjector.kext" & "IOAHCIBlockStorageInjector.kext" in my previous builds. But not sure if its working or not? as my usb is working either using these or without. Using SmBIOS of Mac Pro 5.1 and its working fine in previous builds.Please help me figuring this issue and suggest the solution for this error? I want to get this figured as soon as possible. Many thanks in advance!

Mtkhan Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) Hi Thanks for reply. Let me try this and get back. One question though, 6.1 is showing LGA2011 and mine is LGA1366. Wouldn't it clash?

PPCnostalgic Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 HP Z400 W3690 24Gb DDR3 Nvidia Quadro K2000 SM951 256Gb Mac Os Mojave 10.4.4 installed. Frequent boot failures, the progress bar appears at the Apple Logo but doesn't start 5/10, while verbose mode booting failures decrease to 2/10. Force restart(s) needed. I've noticed this behaviour since High Sierra while with older systems (Sierra, El Capitan....) I never had this issue. Can someone who's running Mac OS High Sierra or Mojave confirm this problem on booting? Thank You to everyone will read this post.

Many thanks in advance! Hi Guys, apologies for not been able to update on this issue. I recently tried to check the issue again and was able to get all drives. Now all drives are showing but still see the the same Installation error "macOS could not be installed on your computer > The installer resources were not found." I'm also attaching a log file for anyone who is able to see the issue and guide me here. Please check the log file here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Jo6xCqboH4lZ3IMmZVvNVoEYGwVO-8MI/view?usp=sharing Many thanks for helping. Cheers!
