Hi guys

I already have a Hack running HighSierra and Clover.

But I think to move to Open Core and install macOS Catalina.

I just wonder if any one have any experience with this model of Gigabyte motherboard.

I must add I use this hack as server to share videos no need audio for example, only network and storage :)

 

My config is as follow

Motherboard: gigabyte ga-h97m-d3h

Processor : Intel i3 3,69 Mhz

Memory : 32 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 (Nvidia Web Driver 387.10.10.10.40.105)

 

System identify as iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) 

Current version 10.13.6

 

Boot drive SSD Kingston HyperX Savage SHSS37A120G

 

Any advice ??

Try this EFI for Haswell, and setup BIOS as url.

Spoiler

11. Intel BIOS settings

11.1. Disable

  • Fast Boot
  • Secure Boot
  • VT-d (can be enabled if you set DisableIoMapper to YES)
  • CSM
  • Thunderbolt(For initial install, as Thunderbolt can cause issues if not setup correctly)
  • Intel SGX
  • Intel Platform Trust
  • CFG Lock (MSR 0xE2 write protection)(This must be off, if you can't find the option then enable both AppleCpuPmCfgLock and AppleXcpmCfgLock under Kernel -> Quirks. Your hack will not boot with CFG-Lock enabled)

11.2. Enable

  • VT-x
  • Above 4G decoding
  • Hyper-Threading
  • Execute Disable Bit
  • EHCI/XHCI Hand-off
  • OS type: Windows 8.1/10 UEFI Mode
  • DVMT Pre-Allocated(iGPU Memory): 64MB

Thanks a lot I finally do the install with macOS Catalina all works perfect ! I'm really impress 

I just have one issue

If the monitor is not plugin in the computer the computer not start.

I don't really need a monitor because I use this Mac as server so I don't need a monitor

Is normal this behaviour ?
