I solved the trackpad issue : I booted the computer to the Recovery partition listed in the Clover Menu I launched the terminal I mounted the EFI partition with mkdir /Volumes/EFI and then mount -t msdos /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/EFI cp -rf /Volumes/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/ApplePS2Controller.kext /Volumes/Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions And I restarted. Sound is gone now, I might have deleted another kext ... Thank you Hervé for your help.

Sorry about double posting, I realized that my post did not really belong to this "macOS sierra installation on E5450" but fits better to the "[sOLVED] E5450 El Capitan Success" here : https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/9058-solved-e5450-el-capitan-success-need-some-minor-help/ since it is the thread that I followed. About my problem, I do have Clover but I don't really understand what it is. I can boot to the recovery partition and run a terminal from there. Would it help ?

I posted an issue here : https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/9401-macos-sierra-installation-on-e5450/?p=66943 I haven't been able to read all 116 pages of this thread.

I tried to make my touchpad work using instructions here : https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/1948-elan-focaltech-and-synaptics-smart-touchpad-driver-mac-os-x/ I deleted (I should have backed up) all *ps2* files in my /System/Library/Extension folder and I used Kext utility to put the Kent ELAN v4.0.5.zip in the same folder. I rebooted, and now it crashes. I don't know which trackpad I have (I took my chances with ELAN). I have El Capitan and not Sierra.

Now I don't remember exactly which kexts I installed. I'm sure I installed only two of them to have Bluetooth AND WiFi.

I don't know if you noticed it but two (FakePCIID and FakePCIID_Broadwell_wifi) of your links point to the same url. I have used only the first two one and I have Bluetooth and Wifi with my DW1560.

OK, so now, I think I can tell that everything is working. Would you like me to create a new thread specifically for my configuration ? This is a Dell Latitude E5450, 14" 1366x768, Intel Core i5-5300u with HD5500, BIOS A13, I have an old SSD OCZ Vertex 3 in it. I did have the following issues (solved using Dell Latitude E7450 El Capitan Clover UEFI Only guide page) : EDIT 1: I have bought and received my DW1560, bluetooth is working, so is WiFi. I'm not sure if I have 5 GHz enabled. /dev/disk1 (internal, virtual) need to set DVMT to 96MB sound not working non beta version of ssdPRGen.sh Bluetooth/Wireless not working Working: Full QE/CI Audio with patched AppleHDA using Fix for 10.11.5 Ethernet USB 3.0 Webcam Fn Hotkeys (at least brightness, sound volume) Sleep, Processor P&C-States with Native power management HDMI Video Battery management. I'm not sure how to test. All I can say is that is can be recharged correctly and Os X can monitor current, voltage, and capacity. I don't know how long the stamina of the battery is supposed to be. Original Intel 7265 card for Bluetooth and WiFi was replaced for a DW1560. Not tested yet (update will come) mini Display Port SD Card reader I haven't checked SSDT for my CPU with AppleIntelInfo.kext, I used the beta version with Broadwell support of ssdPRGen.sh Not working: HDMI Audio Thank you Jake Lo.

Thank you for the third time. Maybe there will be a fourth time now. I've used the ssdtPRGen.sh beta as you mentioned. It seems to success. I placed it under /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Patched. The problems I have now is that the machine can't boot directly. It boots to Clover. Then, In Clover, I select "Boot OS X from Macintosh SSD", it does something, I see the white Apple logo and the progress bar but then it reboots. The only way I have to boot is to boot with the <Your USB Installer device> , then to Clover, and finally to Macintosh SSD. This is identical to steps 12 and 13 of the 2: Install OS X El Capitan chapter. I followed the 3: Post-Installation. Did I miss something ? The network works fine. Wifi doesn't work (Intel 7265 I think) but you mentioned DW1560 so I'll look into it later. Sound doesn't work. Special Fn keys doesn't work too. Maybe I shouldn't be doing this stuff when it's late !

Hi again. I have good news. I was able to install 10.11.5 thanks to your advice. The two variables to change were also located at 0x15b and 0x15c. Right now, I'm stuck on step 10. Generate own SMBios and SSDT. The script ssdtPRGen.sh tells me : Error: Unknown processor model ... Aborting ... Done My processor is the i5-5300U, broadwell architecture. I'm not sure that there is a Mac with this architecture right now. Is there a workaround or do I have to wait until ssdtPRGen.sh is updated ?

Ok, I'll try this later when I go back home. I'll do my best to make this Latitude E5450 work and come back to this thread to post the results. Thank you for the premium support !

Hi all, I have a kernel panic. Something wrong with the GPU drivers apparently. The trace tells that it crashed at AppleIntelController.cpp:20887. I tried to install El Capitan. I combined the bootpack correctly I think. I followed the guide here https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/8506-dell-latitude-inspiron-el-capitan-clover-guide/&do=findComment&comment=58699. Any idea ?
