Guys, how do you upgrade without losing your data? I tried but I think messed up a little. I create a USB installer and boot from it and try to install over my Mojave but it always stuck. Are you using a different way?

Hello all my Friends.. i have a Problem with Catalina 10.15 beta1

 

I can not move the icons on my desk, the green cross message comes up, which displays the symbols of other Paritions-symbols, e.g. "copied".

I do not want to copy anything, just change the order, e.g. move from the right edge to the left edge of the desk.

Thanks my friend @Herve ... I thought I had something wrong with the security or access settings.
But something like that, in my opinion, should not happen in a beta 1. Says times do not test the bums of Apple before?

Pulling off a big show and seeing no such flawed mistakes should not happen, even if it's Devloper Beta.

Hi folks, I'm new to this forums just to participate in this discussion. Today I managed to get headless iGPU with my RX580. I also added my basic hardware specs as a screenshot from Mohave. I followed this thread and managed to install (and run) Catalina on my CustoMac to/from an extra partition. However I did that before I was trying to get headless iGPU up and running. To do that I need to activate `iGPU multiple monitor` support in the BIOS (ASUS Maximus IX Hero). Unfortunately I get a kernel panic when I try to boot into Cataline with that BIOS setting enabled, if it's disabled it boots just fine.

 

Does anyone has a suggestion where I can start further investigation. I also need a helping hand to extract the Kernel Panic logs from Catalina as a video recording from the iPad is not fully readable.

 

The reason why I started this in first place was to try if this was the root case why `Sidecar` (using the iPad as an external screen always failed. I observed system logs from macOS and the iPad and there are things like weird frame buffer errors or other things. I'm not sure if this even related to my CustoMac setup or just bugs of the beta OS's.) 

 

Thank you folks in advance.

fakeid was 0x43a014e4, real id is [14e4:43b1]

 

AirPortBrcmNIC.kext caused kernel panic for my laptop.

therefore i determined to use deviceid(pci14e4,4331) of AirPortBrcm4360.kext. then no more kernel panic with airportbcrmfixup.kext

but it's not still work. so until it is fix, we need to whitelist board-patch for airport extreme.

here is patch. thanks rehabman.

Hey guys, I’m on the business trip and nowhere near a computer can any of you check if the cpu_max_limit of 64 cores is still there in the kernel?

I use CCC to clone my working installation to a spare HD. Then upgraded to Catalina on the working installation.

 

If things go wrong, I boot to the clone and clone it back to the original drive, then try again.

Could someone please compile and post the new SMCBatteryManager.kext?  Thanks.

 

Also, does anyone remember what revisions are needed to make RehabMan's VoodooPS2Controller.kext work in a new OS version?  Specifically the Trackpad plugin?  I remember modifying it once a few years ago but can't recall what we had to do.
