viking1304 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Sierra works fine (posting this message from it), but can't boot High Sierra installation. Already prepared install USB two times, but there was no difference. E7450 with discreet graphics using official High Sierra from store EFI_4200.zip, E7450_A15_Disabled-840m.zip and Clover Boot 4220. Any idea what I might be missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted September 26, 2017 Administrators Share Posted September 26, 2017 most likely you need APFS.efi driver for clover and FixHeaders clover patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 26, 2017 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2017 User create installer method. Note: Untitled" is name of your USB Installer, rename it as you please. All data will be wipe! sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --nointeraction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking1304 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Thank you very much. This is faster and easier method to create USB installation than to mount dmgs, restore and copy/paste. I guess my question might be misleading. I was able to boot installation from USB, but I am still not able to boot it properly and completely. If I enable Legacy Option ROMs it crash almost instantly If I disable that option t takes longer, but installation fails with another message Then I tried to update IntelGraphicsFixup (with RehabMan-IntelGraphicsFixup-2017-0819.zip) but still didn't managed to boot it. One more info that might be important - I am also using latest versions of IntelGraphicsDVMTFixup.kext and Lilu.kext since I restored my BIOS defaults. Those two works just fine in my current Sierra installation. Maybe I should try without those two and with 96MB patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 26, 2017 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2017 Try this Config config-HS.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking1304 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Looks like Enable Legacy Option ROMs must be off, since I am getting exactly the same error as before if I try to enable it. If that option is off, I am getting this error: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted September 26, 2017 Administrators Share Posted September 26, 2017 hmm looks like you need to run lilu and plugins with there beta flags. shows lilu not loaded because of unsupported OS. or compile the kexts from latest sources Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 27, 2017 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2017 latest versions are HS compatible Lilu.kext v1.1.7 IntelGraphicsFixup.kext v1.1.6 IntelGraphicsDVMTFixup.kext v1.1.8 AppleALC.kext v1.1.4 https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/releases https://github.com/vit9696/Lilu/blob/master/KnownPlugins.md Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted September 27, 2017 Administrators Share Posted September 27, 2017 yeah bur version 1.2 and up has HS set as native 1.7 needs beta flag to work with HS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking1304 Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 yeah bur version 1.2 and up has HS set as native 1.7 needs beta flag to work with HS Add -lilubeta to enable Lilu on unsupported os versions (10.13 and below are enabled by default). If I understand correctly this is same as this flag is for versions above 10.13. But doesn't mean that I am right. I cleaned USB again and started from scratch. I updated those kexts from Jake's post to latest versions. I also put new config that Jake posted. Just added that flag to boot options in config over Clover Configurator and will take another try. I will report results soon. EDIT: Architecture couldn't be recognized! PCM_BOOT 0 = <ptr>, PCM_BOOT 42 = 0x00000011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
