small development... i resigned myself to being a windows user for while and things kept crashing. turns out one of my two g.skill ddr4 sticks is bad and im working on an rma. so i pulled the bad module and have been running on just 16gb for a day or two. might give the 0.8.3 monterey install a...

i'm not using the usb map i did and revised from before. i'm just using the USBToolbox.kext and UTBDefault.kext. its as if no mapping has taken place. im using the Fenvi T919 card and the USB bluetooth module thats on it. as far as i can tell the wifi card works fine from the installer when...

just usbtoolbox and the utbdefault kexts like the usbtoolbox guide instructed. -> https://github.com/USBToolBox/kext now that i have the windows nvme put back in i have access to Win10 and can try to USBmap again.

2.0 ports are a negative. same error.

yeah the last two days worth of attempts were done with only the target NVMe for macOS installed (i had only just re-installed the windows drive this evening before sending those screenshots and pics). i was using usb 3.0 ports the whole time tho. i guess when everyone goes to bed i'll try...

all assumptions are correct real mac to download and restore the installer, macbook pro 2015 running 12.5.1 (updated last night!) using a usb 64 gig datastick pro (usb 3.0). have also used 16gb PNY usb 2.0 drives to same effect yep 64 and 16 USB gets formatted as MyVolume in Mac os extended...

same error using a gibMacOs pulled image. getting desperate i tried moving the NVMe i'm using to the other m.2 slot. same result tho now the installer says my 500gb disk is an external.

downloaded the monterey installer using the app store (not installinstall) on my macbook pro, setup the stick and tried again. this one got further! got past the 12 minute mark and then gracefully rebooted, booted back into an installer and then it started a macOS Update Assistant and that's...

downloaded another monterey image (12.4-21f79), created the usb stick, used the same EFI. and i get the same error when trying to install. the previous monterey image i tried was 12.5-21g72. if this is a bad download then its happened to every one of my attempted downloads for the past several...

started from scratch, reverted mobo BIOS to a pretty old F11 version, and built a whole new 0.8.3 opencore EFI going by the guide again step-by-step. propertree oc snapshot is not putting kexts into the correct order so i had to manually put things like lilu and virtualsmc first cuz it wasn't...

opened the machine up and pulled all non-essentials out (wifi, any extra usb devices, second nvme that has windows) and still won't go. tried with above 4g on and off with the npci=0x2000 argument that i've used in the past. still halts at the same place. tried latest BIOS (F37g), reset to...

latest EFI folder yields the same results. boot from stick, eventually gives me GUI picker. tried the already installed macOS, gives that same screen shot as i posted before. also tried booting into the Big Sur installer but get the same thing. the Recover DMG does load tho and im currently...

well the first thread was for the ailing 0.7.1 post-install issues and this one is for building a whole new 0.8.3 pre-install because the old one got all messed up. i agree two threads for the same issue is bad but since they are technically not the same issue... cisco TAC would say i needed...

i've only ever used the pre-made ones but let's see if i can figure this out now. i think i did that right... 1) "acpidump.exe -b -n DSDT -z" gets me DSDT.dat 2) "iasl.exe DSDT.dat" gets me DSDT.dsl 3) "iasl.exe DSDT.dsl" gets me DSDT.asl

okay, loaded your EFI onto a new drive, rebooted, above 4g is enabled, booted from usb, eventually GUI picker came up, i choose my macOS install and i am stuck here:
