JerC 0 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Hey I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I have a 2009 Dell PowerEdge R710 Rack Mount Server. 24GB 1333MHz RAM 2x X5650 2.66 6-Core Intel Xeon CPU NVIDIA GT-710 GPU Motherboard Chipset is: Intel 5520 https://i.dell.com/sites/csdocuments/Shared-Content_data-Sheets_Documents/en/R710-SpecSheet.pdf An EFI folder would be AWESOME! I heard that someone was able to do this build before, but they didn't share their EFI... I am also open to OpenCore. I am trying to install High Sierra on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hervé 2,139 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 New members are restricted and can only post in New Users Lounge section. This, to control spam and avoid new members posting in the wrong place. See here for details: Your Dell server is a Westmere platform that shares characteristics with 2010 MacPro5,1. As such, you may install OS X/macOS up to Mojave and no reason why Catalina wouldn't be supported too. Back in May, you had posted this. Why don't you post a zipped copy of the Clover folder you used back then for High sierra? Apart from possibly updated Lilu + WEG + AppleALC kexts, things should remain the same for Mojave/Catalina. Of course, your GeForce GT710 graphics card must be a Kepler model, not a Fermi one. Here too, post the full/exact specs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iLennart 2 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 You might try to follow this guide for Opencore as Hervé mentioned there are some limitations regarding the GPU generation, because Nvidia sold two different cards under the name GT710 --> https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config-HEDT/nehalem.html#starting-point Quote Link to post Share on other sites
