The Tahoe Day Wallpaper is also a live Screen Saver.

Quite a pleasant addition in this Beta.

Yes absolutely it was really necessary

Everything working like a charm... AppleHDA, USB, etc...

On the OLD:  computer: I have not been able to finish the update of the computer in this beta 3 and in the 2 using a MacPro 7.1 in beta 2 I chose to remove the SSD and place it in a USB-SSD adapter and on my NEW: computer finish the update it stays in one part see photo I will continue investigating before removing the SSD

 

 

 

solution to disable the WhateverGreen.kext kext

Edited July 7, 2025 by kaoskinkae

[kgp]

With the official release of opencore 1.0.5 and the official release of the latest Lilu-kext-family-package (Lilu.kext 1.7.1, WhateverGreen.kext 1.7.0, AppleALC.kext 1.9.5), flawless update to Tahoe Beta 3 even with WhateverGreen.kext enabled during the update. With WhateverGreen.kext, I am using boot argument: agdpmod=pikera.

 

Note that I did not revert the OCLP-Mod Root Patch before the update to Tahoe Beta 3 ( and still flawless incremental update to Tahoe 3 Beta via system settings) and thus OCLP-Mod automatically detected the missing root patch after the update to Tahoe Beta 3 and automatically reinstalled everything. Just that straight! Thanks, @laobamac_yyds!

 

 

 

 

 

 

With respect to the findings above, my latest EFI-Folder distribution v1.0.3

In my own hackintosh for some reason mac os  updates are not found by software update (an issue that persists on me at least from sequoia) and I always need to download the full installer to install any update.

 

Is it because it is skylake based?

[kaoskinkae]

 

Beta 3 installation using a MacPro 7.1 on an OLD: computer: use an installation USB when using an imacpro1.1 on this computer to complete the update it is necessary that the WhateverGreen.kext kext is disabled on the beta 3 installation USB but I have applied the AppleHDA patch perfectly

I am just using the latest release of RestrictEvents.kext and a compatible SMBIOS setting like MacPro7,1

And it did not work with enabeled WhateverGreen.kext, when implementing the latest official release of opencore and the Lilu-Family-Package? See my post above. In my case it worked now perfectly, while I always had to disable WhateverGreen.kext, when booting the macOS Tahoe installers.

Yes. For a smooth update on the RX500 series, WEG.kext must be removed. Using this kext also prevents access to the Recovery disk.

Changing from 19,1 to MacPro 7,1 for Tahoe stopped automtic updates on my Z690 lol. Possibly it's just a bad serial number.

Anyway, I tried the new WEG - was using NootRX. but I just get a black screen after boot. I tried -wegnoigpu but still the same. Back to noot now.

Apart from that the update was flawless.

Is there a quirk or boot arg I need to make with WEG?

I am just using -v  -lilubetaall darkwake=0 keepsyms=1 debug=0x100 agdpmod=pikera -amfipassbeta restrict=1 revpatch=pci,sbvmm -rtcfxex, although I think -lilubetaall might not be even necessary.   

 

 

Under UEFI -> Output I have just ProvideConsoleGop enabled.

many of those boot flags aren't necessary unless you are debuging

Nel mio hackintosh per qualche motivo gli aggiornamenti di mac os non si trovano dall'aggiornamento software (un problema che persiste su di me almeno da sequoia) e devo sempre scaricare il programma di installazione completo per installare qualsiasi aggiornamento.

 

È perché è basato su Skylake?

no!

SecureBootModel - Disable,

bootArg  revpatch=auto,sbvmm + RestrictEvents.kex

I'm just using "alcid=12 keepsyms=1 watchdog=0" with Noot. What do you think I need to make WEG work?

[asdfghjklzxcvbnm]

thanks everyone I will check it out with the next beta (now I am installing beta 3)

I am also having issues with WEG. I have tried it with various boot args and black screen. I tried to change to WEG because Nootrx.kext hangs on a black screen after boot for about 15 to 30 seconds before it loads the desktop.
