quebert Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Installed it the other day, sometimes it'll work for 4-5 hours before it locks up and I have to reboot. Specs: ASRock Z77E-ITX Intel i5-3570k Intel HD4000 GPU 1 8gb Crucial Ballistix stick Samsung 128gb SSD UEFI Clover boot, still booting off the USB stick I made, haven't gotten around to installing an actual boot loader yet. Wanted to wait until I have the locking up issues fixed. I did a stock Niresh Catalina install, the only thing I've modified was I injected a kext to get my ethernet working. With it working for 3+ hours I doubt it's overheating, plus it'll lock up even when I'm not doing anything, but I can run something CPU intensive for a good hour with no issue. You'll have to excuse me I'm a life long DOS/Windows guy so I'm still very much trying to adjust to OSX. I did look at the system logs and when it's locking up I see a fsck_apfs_error.log, so i thought it was maybe something to do with my SDD. But I'm not able to decipher the log file. Here's a few lines from the log, the rest looks the same just repeated. dev= uuid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 vers=1412.11.7 result=0 fp=0 fl=-1 repairs=0 time=0 iter=1 fsck_apfs completed at Sun Jan 24 01:29:19 2021 dev=/dev/rdisk1 uuid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 vers=1412.11.7 result=65 pl=156:1 fp=2 fl=156 repairs=0 time=0 iter=1 fsck_apfs completed at Sun Jan 24 01:32:22 2021 dev= uuid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 vers=1412.11.7 result=0 fp=0 fl=-1 repairs=0 time=0 iter=1 fsck_apfs completed at Sun Jan 24 01:32:22 2021 dev= uuid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 vers=1412.11.7 result=0 fp=0 fl=-1 repairs=0 time=0 iter=1 fsck_apfs completed at Sun Jan 24 01:32:22 2021 I did look on here for a FAQ on what to put in a post if you need help, I apologize if there is one and I was just unable to find it. I'm really tired from lack of sleep + trying to get this working so I'm running on fumes. If there is a posting protocol I'll look for it when I wake up and have brain energy. I went thru my BIOS and disabled XMP and set my memory to a lower speed - seems to be something that came up a lot when I Googled potential reasons it'll lock up. I know for anyone to help me they'll need logs or file lists, please let me know. These are the files in my EFI/Clover/ktext/other XHCI-unsupported WhateverGreen VoodooPS2Controller USBInjectAll NullCPUPowerManagement Niresh's Extra Lilu GenericUSBXHCI FakeSMC FakePCIID FakePCIID_XHCIMux FakePCIID_Intel_HD_Graphics AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebufferInjector_3e9x When I did the install I didn't touch the section that lets you chose other kexts to install.

quebert Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Thank you for replying, I suspected as much lol. I wanted to get my feet wet before I jumped into trying Opencore. I'm going to go read up and get crackin on building an Opencore installer. I know that's what I should have done from the start. I'll format the disk and start over, from all my reading online Opencore would be the best route to go here.
