rea1l1 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hey guys! E6440 i7 12 GB DDR3 A13 Intel&ATI graphics Last post I made was about a complete failure to get to the installer screen - turned out that motherboard was on the way out and after I replaced it the system gets there no problem. So I'm not a complete idiot! Yay! I managed to get Catalina booting and everything working (audio, video, mouse) with the help of one of the installer & post installer EFI packs on here. IIRC the post mentioned that SSDTs (or DSDT?) were included to deal with a usb issue. I am guessing that my lack of custom DSDT/SSDT is what is causing these freezes, and I'm planning on diving into producing them when I get the time to dive into that rabbit hole, but I was just wondering if there could be anything else causing this problem. Also booting with ktexts in clover EFI folder, not other suggested system folder. Thanks for all your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rea1l1 Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 For readers... I had to run that quite a few times to get it to go through right. Restarted to Clover and pressed F2 and F4 to generate various logs so this script could copy them. Install required: sudo mount -uw / Folder was placed on desktop with zip file. debug_30554.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted March 11, 2020 Moderators Share Posted March 11, 2020 Upgrade Clover to latest v5103 Update Lilu.kex and Whatevergreen.kext to latest Get rid of GenericUSBXHCI.kext, no use after Yosemite Replace ACPIBatteryManager.kext with SMCBatteryManager.kext since you're using VirtualSMC. ACPIBatteryManager.kext is paired with FakeSMC.kext. Not sure if sleep and wake works with VoodooHDA, if not, then replace it with AppleALC.kext and use layout-id = 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rea1l1 Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Completed those tasks and still randomly freezes after a few minutes run time. Also, sleep doesn't work (HDD light goes wild). Also tried swapping out VirtualSMC with FakeSMC and no change. Also after reading about sleep issues the results of the following commands: pmset -g ls -la /var/vm Quote System-wide power settings: Currently in use: standbydelaylow 10800 standby 1 halfdim 1 hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage powernap 0 gpuswitch 2 disksleep 10 standbydelayhigh 86400 sleep 1 autopoweroffdelay 28800 hibernatemode 3 autopoweroff 1 ttyskeepawake 1 displaysleep 2 highstandbythreshold 50 lidwake 1 total 4194304 drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 128 Mar 6 09:56 . drwxr-xr-x 27 root wheel 864 Mar 6 09:58 .. -rw------- 1 root wheel 1073741824 Mar 14 00:24 kernelcore -rw------T 1 root wheel 1073741824 Mar 6 12:45 sleepimage Thank you. debug_5811.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted March 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 18, 2020 Did you try and disable hibernation? See our FAQ section where it's described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rea1l1 Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 Disabled hibernation. Still freezes after a ~10 minutes of use and sleep still makes the HDD indicator go wild. :< So close yet so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
