Same boot loop in clover and opencore. In one of my laptops I use ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext because voodoo doesn't work on it. I have the same KP. Disabling just the keyboard plugin, I can boot. I suspect something is changed related with keyboard approach in beta 15.2.

Link for ApplePS2SmartTouchPad.kext ?

Where can we download this kext?

This I understand. What I don't understand is why is so hard to say please when you ask for something?!

Thanks to the advices of the patient developers of Insanelymac (aka Gandhivelopers in my case) I was able to update without problems. If it wasn't  for these  f.. graphics problems and these damned black boxes on mail and co..it would be perfect. 

Hello,

 

Successfully updated from 15.1 but I do get that on every boot the updatenotificationmanager window pops up which asks for my admin password and then it is gone. However it is annoying. Does someone else here have the same problem and what is the solution for that?

@mnfesq I am not in the habit of installing beta OSes. If you all have a kernel panic log to share and more specifics about which kext is causing issues, I can take a look.

 

As you may have seen from above, we all are having trouble with the keyboard kext.  I cannot get the mouse or trackpad kexts to load with the keyboard kext disabled as well.  Here is the kp log file created upon reboot.  I also saved the system diagnostic files created upon reboot but they exceed the size limit I can share here. Thanks for any help you can provide.  Unless you instruct me to do so, I will not also create a bug report on Github as I don't want to submit duplicate requests on this. Thanks.

I am going to wait until 15.2 is out of beta as nothing pops out to me as wrong with VoodooPS2 itself. May need to wait until new sources come out for IOHIDFamily/xnu - a reserved function is getting called that shouldn't be.
I'm a little hesitant to make changes for a beta.

Understood. I will be reverting back to 15.1 so that I can use my laptop without the BT keyboard that is driving me crazy because it is not full size.  I look forward to a resolution of this issue and only hope that 15.2 does not have 6 betas and 2 RCs before it comes out in final form.  Maybe it will be resolved in the next beta.

This was the problem for me.  I disabled all of the VoodooPS2Controller kexts and plugin kexts and it installed just fine.  Unfortunately, you cannot re-enable them after installation.  I am currently using a Bluetooth keyboard/trackpad and it sucks but I'm sure the kext will be updated soon now that it is clear that this is the kext causing the problem for many of us. For me, the error message was with the trackpad only.  I will try to isolate a specific kext/plugin and see if I can maintain keyboard functionality and only disable the trackpad.

 

EDIT:  Disabling the Trackpad plugin kext was not enough. With the other VoodooPS2 kexts, enabled, it still hung when booting up.

 

@1Revenger1 FYI

 

BTW, Here are the error messages I received just prior to restarting.

Same for me on my Lenovo T490 Notebook. In the end, I disabled almost every kext besides the bare minimum of kexts and the installer still crashed early. I have no clue what the issue is.
