STLVNUB Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) Well have Installed Catalina using DOSDUDE1 Catalina Patcher. Does not boot, I will setup REFIND so I can load the APFS refi driver Mojave works fine but that is a HFS Install.

STLVNUB Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 Bugger using refined. I use Clover with only boot and sMBIOS in config, no kexts and full APFS efi in drivers. Plan is to adjust SMBIOS to iMac18,1. Interesting this iMac, its great for a 10 year old machine Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/340019-catalina-on-older-hw/#findComment-2687382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ricoc90 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Never tried to install Mojave/Catalina on my 2008 unibody macbook, but did so on my mid 2011 macbook pro and the performance was pretty bad to say the least.
