Montelli Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) Greetings, Hackintosh High sierra has never let me down over the years. I just think it's time to update it to use new software ... What should I do to update it? (bootloader is clover) do I have to format everything and start over or can I use what I have? But above all which version do you recommend me to switch to with my configuration: i7-8700K Asus Rog Strix z370-E Coolermaster Seidon 120mm c3 plus Asus rog rx 560 O4G Gaming Hd Western Digital Black 1TB M.2 Nvme Samsung 960 Evo 250GB DVD-Rw LG-GH24NSD1 Evga g3 Super Nova 750W 80+ Gold G-Skill F4-3200C16D-16GTZ Zalman Z9 Neo White Case thank you in advance Edited November 17, 2022 by Montelli 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I think your hardware will work fine in Ventura. Just update Clover to 5150. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797357 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just update Clover to 5150. thank you for response, I know this is a somewhat peculiar question... But what is the likelihood that Ventura will work? do you say everything will work, or will I have to replace hardware? because I would like to avoid spending any more money for hardware 😅 Edited November 17, 2022 by Montelli Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I just see many reports on the forum and this hardware is always full compatible with Ventura. You probably have to make new tuning of boot process according to new system and new bootloader possibilities. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797362 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It's been over four years, and I wouldn't want to be wrong because I think I've forgotten) and after updating cloover can I update mac os directly from the appstore?

Thank You Be sure your config.plist is similar to revision 5150. You may upload it here for me to check. Or just check it by CloverConfigPlistValidator_5150. May be you need additional SSDT-PMC, put it to EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched/ folder SSDT-PMC.aml.zip 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797371 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montelli Posted November 17, 2022 Author Share Posted November 17, 2022 sorry, Where I find the CloverConfigPlistValidator_5150 ? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797376 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anto65 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Try Clover-5150-EFI.zip ... copy your SSDTs to CLOVER > ACPI > patched ( including the one mentioned by Slice if it's not there you have it ) The drivers are already there Kests are ok (in case add the network one you use) in CLOVER > kexts > Other The Tools folder is ok If you use any theme copy it in CLOVER > themes Finally copy your config.plist in CLOVER ... configuring the Booter and Kernel Quirks (IF YOU USE CLOVER CONFIGURATOR MAKE SURE IT IS UPDATED) Verify the plist with CloverConfigPlistValidator_5150.zip rename Clover-5150-EFI > EFI Try booting maybe from a bootable usb...if that works copy the EFI to the disk 2 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797387 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montelli Posted November 17, 2022 Author Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) thank you for the answer, kindly, what is the actual method to create an UEFI usb, I have to go with the command from the terminal, can you tell me which was it? Unfortunately it's been a long time since I made hackintosh...

Anto65 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Open the terminal drag in the validator below the plist ... enter If everything is ok you should have this as output Your plist looks so wonderful. Well done! Regarding the usb, if it's just to try the new updated EFI on the fly, you can format it as I indicated If you want to do a clean install with the full installer etc. follow Slice's instructions Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797475 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slice Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 10 hours ago, Montelli said: ok thanks, this is what it gives me: what should I do? Very simple. Just see the messages. DropOEM_DSM in the section ACPI->DSDT not more exists. Use rename _DSM -> ZDSM The key "Log" is the section Boot is replaced now to key "Debug". The key KernelCpu in the section KernelAndKextPatches is obsolete. You don't need it so just erase it. Search <string>yes</string> and replace it to <true/> Thats all for migration. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/#findComment-2797554 Share on other sites More sharing options...
