![]() ![]() I've tried multiple combinations of the following boot flags:ĭisabled or enabled the intel gfx injector (with IGFX enabled or disabled in BIOS) Seiki 39" 4k TV (used as a monitor, but only has HDMI inputs) I'm running the following successfully in 10.9 using Chimera: It doesn't seem like the cause of my issue is the same as what is listed. I'm receiving the "Prohibited" sign when attempting to boot into the El Capitan installer. When sitting at the "Still waiting for root device" error, plugging the thumbdrive into EVERY usb port and waiting a few minutes each (people in other forums have reported successful booting by trying other USB ports)ĭoes anyone have any quick fixes for the USB issue? I see a few options and will try them out, so would appreciate any guidance. Booting with ONLY the thumbdrive plugged in (I unplug the keyboard as soon as I hit "ENTER" to start the Clover boot process) In addition to everything below, I've tried the following: Now I just have to figure out how to fix the USB port limit issue. SO: if I can fix the USB issue on boot, then I should be able to get into the El Capitan installer. I might be wrong, but this is currently my working assumption. ![]() I think this is what the prohibited sign is saying: basically it can't find the USB boot device. "Still waiting on root device" is the last line that appears when the "prohibited" sign comes up. I think this means that Clover is deciding NOT to load any of my USB devices.ģ. This happens whether or not I have my USB devices plugged in. "createports: ports limit reached" message for USB. Also, the IGFX boot gets all crazy when I have my 4k monitor plugged in - had to switch to my 1080p TV to try IGFX booting.Ģ. hopefully it fixes itself when the other issues are resolved. When I finally realized that was coming up, I noticed issue 2 (which I think is the cause of issue 3 and ultimately the cause of issue 1 - the "stop" sign). At this point, I'm convinced that the video card is not the root of this problem. This happens whether I'm using IGFX (onboard Intel graphics) or the 650TI BOOST. Garbled text with a "prohibited" sign on boot. Breaking this into a new thread, as it seems like a slightly different cascade of problems than everyone else.ġ. If you are stuck with what settings to use, you could maybe try using Opencore's Sanity Checker to see if it can create a build for you from scratch.Building a CustoMac Hackintosh: Buyer's Guide If you are stuck with what settings to use, you could maybe try using Opencore's Sanity Checker to see if it can create a build for you from scratch. These are some of the most essential files for Opencore (aside from the kexts). This means SATA is set to AHCI mode XHCI handoff enabled, UEFI boot mode, VT-d disabled, CSR Lock disabled, CSM disabled, Secure Boot disabled, Serial port and parallel ports disabled, and Above 4G decoding enabled.Īside from this, also make sure Hfsplus.efi or openhfsplus.efi is added in your OC/drivers folder, plus OpenCanopy.efi and OpenRuntime.efi. You have to make sure they're hackintosh compatible. It worked for me on my High Sierra to Mojave builds.Īnother thing to look out for would be your BIOS settings. ![]() I would suggest try using iMac 18,3 SMBIOS in your case. To get macOS to boot properly on the target version you wish to run, you need to choose the Mac SMBIOS version that closely matches your chipset and CPU. It could be a BIOS setting and often it could be the wrong SMBIOS type. Well if you are getting prohibition signs, it usually means that your setting somewhere is not compatible. I'm not sure about the status of the Catalina Unibeast but MacMan (the one responsible for the Clover tool) is currently finishing the Big Sur Unibeast install. If you didn't know the main hackintosh community like Acidanthera who are behind most of the kexts and breakthroughs we've had over the past decade is now moving towards it as a standard. But Opencore (OC) does have its advantages, in that it is a highly structured program and documented process (following Apple's programming protocols but open source). The reason why you can't install it yet via Unibeast and Multibeast is that those tools aren't ready yet and also because Catalina's memory protection features are very high - this is the main reason why Clover 'seems' to fail and why most folks have opted to use Opencore instead. I can confirm that Catalina CAN work on the 10th gen chip - I know because I've done the install (but just haven't had time to post up the build) using Mald0n's Hackinbeast setup (google this).
