You need to insure OCLP is the 'Nightly Version 0.6.9' and not the released 0.6.8 version which I can see from your pic (which is for real Macs) for it to work, if I am understanding your query.

thanks the installation worked, but when it restarted I don't see any change in graphics, it remains without gtx970, do I have to add kexts or modify the boot-args?

In case you missed it, your GPU is not supported in macOS Sonoma or any other previous versions like Ventura, Monterey, Big Sur, Catalina and Mojave

Only macOS Sierra and High Sierra are supporting nVidia Web Drivers.

The last Mac that has a nVidia GPU is the 2013 iMac which has a Kepler chipset that Apple officially supported until macOS Catalina and your GPU is Maxwell which Apple never used in any Mac so that won't apply to you.

 

 

But if you'd like to test that and prove that it works be my guest.

Yes. My bad I edited my post, it is Maxwell but it only worked with nVidia Webdrivers right?

Is Intel power Gadget working in Sonoma? Or is it just me having a borked install...

By the way, I run Sonoma purely for the amazing screen saver / background lol. I love the way it animates then slowly grinds to a halt when screensaver stops.

I happened to have the app when I upgraded to Sonoma. It worked for me but I uninstalled it anyways.

Hi all

 

On my Z390 rig, macOs Sonoma show up Desktop and Finder, very slow at start, compare to my Z77 (Monterey). Has anyone else noticed the same thing?

Disable TRIM.

Apple publish Beta every fortnight : Beta 5 > 08/08/2023, so probaly Beta 6 > 23/08/2023.

Sorry about that. Today, Apple released beta 6 for iOS, iPadOS, and WatchOS. That's why I mistakenly thought that macOS was also included.

Hi mates,

I patched Fenvi T919 with OCLP and setup all required kexts with OC, the speed is too slow, not more than 468K/sec, am I having this issue?

I don't patch yet my Fenvi T919. So I can't answer to you. At this time, I use my Intel 9560 ac with AirportItwlm Preview 05.

I am not having that problem with mine, there are lots of factors that can affect down load speed. Has anything changed from before Sonoma, are you multi booting so that you can make a comparison in another OS?

Me either... works flawless on my second Mackintosh

Hi eSaF, nothing has been changed, with Ventura and below the card is fast as 24MB/sec, the only issue is with Sonoma, dunno why is this.... had intel 210ax before for Sonoma and was working fast, yes am on Multi booting

Hi guys good night,

I have installed MacOS Sonoma beta 5, but I have some annoyances that I want to erase, my Sonoma ssd don't boot without the USB installer and after boot it takes 10 seconds with the beachball to enter after the password.

For that reason I want to make a new USB installer and after trying various times the results is this picture below...

Anyone knows how I solve this?

Thanks

You should make sure to erase the whole drive where you are going to install in APFS and GUID partition map. Disk Utility makes the EFI partition for you.

Or create manually,

 

Just go to disk utility, choose view, show all. Now, select the physical disk at the root level. Choose "partition". It will give you a warning, choose to partition anyways. Now create a 300MB partition in the format FAT (FAT32). Name it EFI. Run the operation

Once you're done, place your EFI folder in the EFI partition

Edit: this is not the best way to recreate an EFI partition, it's just the easiest.

After many trials and errors my M5A(FX-6300) can boot Sonoma with Clover 5151 now !

The key issue is related to my GPU RX-560 which need RadeonDeInit to avoid blank screen before login desktop and also fix previous unable to wakeup from sleep issue at Ventura/Sonoma now !

Hi @MorenoAv

With Disk Utiliity, the USB key must be format macOS Journalized with Table Partition GUID. ESP is created automatically.
