When the dsdt tables you edited are compiled, it gives dozens of errors. Which patches are you using? The error continues the same. Isn't it necessary to patch Opencore AHCI? There is no solution for this error on the internet. From where?

Your error shows that AHCI is successfully initialized....Maybe its your graphics card

Hatanız AHCI'nin başarılı bir şekilde başlatıldığını gösteriyor....Belki de bu sizin grafik kartınızdır

The graphics card is connected via PCI. Why does ACI freeze on approval? It's never happened to me. Does the issue require a config.plist patch? Can you help me find a solution? Or should I try Clover bootloader?

Anyone had success with Dual Xeon setup? I've been trying to install Sonoma on HP Z820 (X79, Dual 2680V2), but could only succeed with single CPU setup. Dual CPUs would give random lockup during booting (not KP), before reaching desktop.

Me and my friend wasted so much time in this dual CPU Setup but it never works. It only works with Single CPU unfortunately

There is one exception, I was successful with HP Z620 with 2x 2680V2 (but forgot the detail if the Sonoma was installed with a single CPU 1st, then added 2nd CPU back - Z620 is using CPU add-on card so it is easy to add/remove 2nd CPU. But I will do a separate test to verify if I could install Sonoma with dual CPU). Z820 is a different story, if the 2nd CPU is installed, Sonoma could no longer boot (random lockup before reaching desktop).

 

Follow up: I was able to install Somoma 14.3 on HP Z620 with dual CPU configuration (2x2680V2). Occasionally, I still experience a random lockup during booting, but rebooting was normally successful. Once boot up, it runs without issue.

Hey all, I've been trying with no success, even just using the EFI as is, but when I select my EFI drive in the BIOS Boot Screen, it goes nowhere, shows no boot options, no errors pop up, and open core log is blank.

I tried the USB mapper in Windows to get the kext, but I'm guessing I updated my config.plist incorrectly. I also tried going with MP6,1, but no luck. I'm good with just having Monterey on it, but I've stalled out. 

System specs:

E5-2667v2

ASUS P9X79 Pro

XFX RX 5600XT

Currently trying to boot to a SATA drive, but eventually would try to install to an NVME. secure boot is off. 

 

The above boots Windows and Linux just fine, so the hardware is solid. config.plist is below, if that helps.

 

config.plist

I understand nothing. What did you do?

[BrushEatingGoat]

I downloaded the EFI zip in the OP, mapped my USB drives, and tried to add that USBmap kext to my config.plist. I also changed the system serial to go with a 6,1MP. Copied it all to the EFI drive on a properly formatted SATA disk, and then tried to boot to that EFI partition. In one instance, I saw a boot option list, but I wasn't fast enough to select a drive before it went with my Windows install on another drive. Haven't had any luck since then, and no errors are showing. I'm somewhat familiar with OpenCore, as I have it installed on my 5,1MP to run Monterey.  I even tried doing all this through the GitHub instructions for OpenCore, but I'm just hitting a wall somewhere every time. Unfortunately, my available time to troubleshoot is pretty limited these days, but I'd love to get macOS going on my Ivy Bridge-E system for photo editing, as the 5,1 is quite a bit slower in that regard.

Update:

 

 

You can use the following EFI to install Ventura or Sonoma. First use the EFI as it is. If it does not work then use SSDT-X79 and check. If that doesn't work then you can use my DSDT if you have Chinese X79. If you have your own DSDT then you can use that as well.

 

You need to enable AppleCpuPmCfgLock, AppleXcpmCfgLock and AppleXcpmExtraMsrs if you are getting kernel panic.

Those who have AMD Graphics can try this

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First of all a great thanks to @MaLd0n for all the help that he gave me by editing my DSDT.

 

This guide is for those who are using X79 Motherboard and are

1. unable to install mac

2. Unable to boot if they enable HYPERTHREADING in thie bios.

3. Having random reboots while booting.

4. Powermanagement Issue.

 

You can use this EFI for Mac OS Monterey or Big Sur

 

Installation:

1. Download the EFI Folder given in this guide and do the necessary changes mentioned in the Changes to the Config File section given below.

2. I am not going to cover how to install Mac. For that you will get lots of guides online.

3. I am Just going to give you my EFI folder. Use it and it will boot and install without any issue.

 

 

You need to do the following after downloading the EFI.

 

Changes to the Config File

1. Please add you own Platform Info

2. You can use the following  USBMap.kext to get the USB Working if it is not working for you then you need to follow the steps given below.

USBMap.kext.zip 1.8 kB · 316 downloads

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the above file is not working then you need to create a USB Mapping file in Windows or Mac.
Steps for creating USB Mapping For Windows or Mac

i. Download USBToolBox (This is the tool to create USBMapping).

ii. Run as an Administrator if you are on Windows.

iii. Select Discover Ports (Press D)

iv. Now take a USB Drive and insert the USB Drive into every USB Ports one by one. (This step is very important please don't skip it. This will highlight all the ports in whichever you are inserting the USB Drive)
v. Go Back (Press 'B')

vi. Now select the option 'Select Ports and Build Kext' (Press S)

vii. Select 'Enable All Populated Ports' ( Press P)

viii. Select 'build UTBMap.kext' (This will create a UTBMap.kext file)

ix. Now download USBToolBox.kext

x. Now copy the UTBMap.kext and USBToolBox.kext file into the EFI/OC/Kexts Folder

xi. Add these kext entries in the kernel Section.

xii. Now when you boot into the Mac you will have all the USB Working properly.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. SSDT-X79 included in the EFI folder already has everything needed so please don't change any settings in config. It will go smoothly.

4. Reboot

Enjoy....!!!

 

Note: For some motherboard using CpuTSCSync.kext causes Kernel Panic,

Solution: Use VoodooTSCSync.kext instead

 

Bios Settings: 

1. If you still have issue with USB while using my EFI then go into the Bios and Disable EHCI and XHCI Handoff or vice versa.

 

For PowerManagement do the following:

1. Create SSDT-PMC, SSDT-PLUG from windows using SSDTTime.exe

2. Create SSDT-PM using ssdtprgen method

3. Place these files in ACPI folder and also enable them in the config.plist. 

4. So you should have SSDT-PM, SSDT-PMC, SSDT-PLUG (Optional) ACPI and  SSDT-X79 (Note: For some users SSDT-X79 is breaking power management so disable SSDT-X79 and add SSDT-EC.aml and SSDT-UNC.aml instead))

5. Enjoy your PowerManagement

 

 

 

 

For Sandy Bridge CPU please enable 2 options in the Kernel > Patch Section 

751AB9 to EB13B9  

3E7539 to 3E9090 

7513B9 to EB13B9 

Patches_For_SandyCPUs.plist 13.55 kB · 168 downloads

The entries are already added just enable it. This is needed for Sandy Bridge CPU to get PowerManagement Working

 

Once again please don't change anything in the config other than what is mentioned above

 

Audio:

Follow my guide in the link to get the Audio Working

 

 

OR 

 

You can try to use one of the following SSDT-HDEF Patch. It may or may not work for you. Also you would require SSDT-HPET.aml along with it which you can create using ssdttime app.

SSDT-HDEF.aml or SSDT-HDEF-edited.aml

 

Downloads:

EFI Folder:  This one is with themes 

If the new EFI Doesn't work then use the old one

Updated EFI with Open Core 0.7.7 (28-01-2022) (With themes) 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Old EFI with Open Core (This one has themes)

 

 EFI.zip.  (This one doesn't have themes you can add it later)

 

Bonus: 

 

Those who are using Huananzhi-X79 Deluxe board can use the following patched DSDT which has all the necessary patches. Even the Audio patch so no need to use SSDT-HDEF.aml

 

DSDT_Huananzhi_X79_Deluxe.aml 31.95 kB · 124 downloads

 

Troubleshooting:

 

Multible Reboot: Some times it takes multiple reboots to get into the system. It gets stuck in the following  then follow the below given solution.

 

Updated Solution:

 

Just use this simple patch

SCK_Patch.plist 48.11 kB · 137 downloads

 

or

 

 

1. Open your DSDT in Rehabman's MacIasl and remove SCK1, SCK2 and SCK3

2. Also remove unused Cores. For Eg. If your CPU has 12 threads then only keep the first 12 CPU Cores and delete the rest like this. It depends on how much threads your CPU has and accordingly remove the rest. As my CPU has only 12 threads I have only kept the first 12 and will be removing the rest that I have shown in the image below.

3. Save this file as DSDT.aml

4. Place this DSDT.aml in the ACPI Folder 

5. Reboot.

Now there will be no random reboots while rebooting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello

I have X79 nonatree, e5 2650 v2 8 cores 16 threads

Works only with 1 core both in Big Sur and Monterey, even if turning off HT in bios, it runs better. But..

I have removed all unused CPUs

Try all possible work around here 

Cpustscsync maybe broken on macOS Monterey · Issue #1676 · acidanthera/bugtracker (github.com)

Tried CpuTscSync.V1.5.3, CpuTscSync, VooDooTSC, TScAdjustReset kext , ResetTSCAdjust.efi,  with no luck,

1. either KP or reboot loop on Monterey

 

2. (actually work on Big Sur on supplement monitor  sorry for ugly guy, the PC is him ) system freeze before logon screen on Big Sur

I think it is still TScSync problem on Big Sur

Can you please have a look at my attached origin DSDT

Me and my friend wasted so much time in this dual CPU Setup but it never works. It only works with Single CPU unfortunately

I have successfully installed Mojave on Dual Xeon E5 v2 motherboard (JingSha/Kllisre Dual X79 + 2x E5-2630L v2 Clover), Mojave/Catalina (Supermicro X9DAi + 2x E5-2670 v2 OpenCore) and High Sierra/Mojave/Catalina on a dual X58 (Asus Z8NA-D6 Clover). On a ??? (without name) "X79 Server" board with 2 E5-2697v2, never success, but these mobo doesn't work very well in Windows, then no hope for MacOS.

 

With Catalina, it is necessary to add MCEReporterDisabler.kext in the EFI because Apple add a reporter to avoid install of 10.15+ on dual socket systems.

This kext doesn't work with 11 Big Sur and higher. I have try (on X9DAi) with an other SMBIOS (iMacPro), Monterey or Big Sur boot without MCEReporterDisabler.kext but the system freeze completely after about 1 minute, if I works with or not.

I think there is a problem with XCPM, probably I should set another setting? I would like also try solutions of these tread, because Sleep is working, but not Wake.

Trying this (and upgrade with the two E5-2697 v2 of the X79 Server) is on my (long!) to-do list

 

The JingSha/Kllisre Dual X79 needs patches for the RAM. The BIOS shown 12 banks of RAM per CPU and the mobo have only 4 per CPU. These cheap chinese mobo (and X79 Server all well) doesn't have a optimized BIOS... It doesn't have Sleep in Windows nor MacOS.

I try flash the BIOS of X79 Server with the one of a similar HuananZhi, but the chip is too small 😕

 

Dual processoring is less useful now, because most of the tasks optimized for Multithreading (Cinema4D, ffmpeg, ...) run better now on graphic cards than CPU

[jfdemiddeleer]

I want also try the patches of this threads on my JingSha X79-P3 mobo.

 

I had a lot of difficulties to install Mojave on it, because the core count of the Xeon E5-2667 v2 are special (80, 82, 84, 00, 02...) and it was a long way to find how edit the DSDT.aml file

Strangely, these CPU work very well in an real MacPro6,1 but I have recently seen the E5-1680 v2 of a real MacPro having the same core count problem in Hackintoshes.

With another CPU (E5-2630L v2 or E5-2697 v2) there is no need of this kind of DSDT editing

 

For now, the X79-P3 work relatively well with Mojave, except Wake. Sleep/Wake work in Windows, but if I remember it correctly, not in Linux. I always think this is due to VIA USB 3.0 chip who use the Intel driver for work (on some Hackintoshes, adding an USB 3.0 VIA card broke the working sleep as well) but this tread let me hope another solution.

The FrescoLogic FL1100 USB 3 chip use it's own driver and doesn't make problem

 

DSDT needs a lot of patches (for CPU, but also for SATA and USB) and I doesn't know if the patches of these thread can work

 

Since I have added SSDT to enable Turbo Boost (up to 4,0 GHz), the inboard soundcard (ALC 889) doesn't work. Probably I should use the patches of these thread :

Then, the computer will be obsolete (due to long delay) when we have a perfectly working Hackintosh 😆

Hi all, @RoberT_XeS, I finally managed to install Monterey on my X79 rig. @MaLd0n says it's the last stable/compatible version for this platform, so I'm wondering how you're doing with Sonoma on your X79 setups, on a day to day basis. No issues? Thanks 🙏

Where did I say that? I told you yesterday that the problem was the kext tsc HERE and if problem is AVX2.0 CPU instruction u can use CryptexFixup

I have very old hardware run new systems HERE

 

 

 

 

 

 

[noisegate]

Ok cool! In April 2023 I asked you what OS I could install on this hardware and you said Big Sur or Monterey. So I mistakenly assumed that they were the last iterations I could go with, for compatibility reasons. MY BAD 🙂

 

I’m currently installing Sonoma, I’ll let you know. Thank you again @MaLd0n, your support to the community is priceless 🤘🖤

Hi Everyone,

 

I recently acquired a JINGSHA X79-P3. 
The boot sequence under Mojave goes well but the usb doesn't work and I'm forced to use another machine by controlling the screen in remote mode.
USBMap under windows or USB InjectAll does not make usb working? Perhaps another issue ?
Any advice is welcome
Best regards

 

Ps: DSDT mod for E5-2667-V2
