Gemini44 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I'm sending my opencore files with tools (propertree, GenSMBIOS). I'm using dw1820a, i removed pci section in config.plist file, but kexts still in efi. I changed smbios info, if you want, you can change again. This is my latest working opencore efi sample. I followed this guide for opencore post-install settings. That you must not forget, if you changed anything in opencore folder via propertree, for instance add/remove SSDT or kext, use "cmd + control + r" keys. This key combinations are arrange the config.plist file easily. And then cmd + s for save. After change efi, if your device not boot, clear NVRAM in opencore boot menu. There are many resources on opencore on the internet. Before you edit the efi file in NVME, always do it with a usb stick. Otherwise, the running system may become not boot. If usb efi boots normally, copy usb efi folder to nvme efi. Hope it helps. Optiplex_Opencore_05_10_2020.7z 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini44 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Just copy my efi folder to your usb efi, boot usb and then reset nvram. (I don’t know Mojave boots, I didn’t try, I’m using catalina 10.15.7). After that it might be boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucahappy Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Bios settings? I'll need to format disk in Macos journaled? I don't know why when I've format disk the disk utility Windows close fast.... I think that something of Windows partition is still on nvme because with Clover on boot don't start Macos but start bios Memory test Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini44 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Bios settings similar to the one in this link. In bios settings, you have to choose EFI/Boot/Bootx64.efi for installation. Then, you need to format AFPS in Catalina setup via Diskutil. After installation, boot via usb efi, you will be rearrange nvme efi folder. First install Catalina.

sukarechhe Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 @Bronxteck I have created USB with opencore and getting issue while selecting NVme it's asking to upgrade your firmware to select APFS partition and while created MacOS Extended it's asking to change partition to APFS. Any clue on this ? Kindly shed some lights on this .... Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
