I have a E6500 CPU Penryn P9700 2.8 Ghz 4 GB RAM (2+2) 250 GB SATA HDD BIOS A29 (Latest), all settings default + SATA set to AHCI Nvidia NV160 256MB UXGA 1920x1200 DW1397 WiFi Bluetooth card installed Audio IDT 92HD71 I'm trying to Install High Sierra 10.13.6 on it and ... it doesn't work. Freshly downloaded Install macOS High Sierra.app Version 13.6.02 Using createinstallmedia + Clover r4920 (Clover guide, non-UEFI steps), it boots, HDD formats fine, Installer starts then it dies with "corrupted media" Using macOS High Sierra Patcher.app + Clover r4920 (another guide), it boots, HDD formats fine, Installer starts then it dies with "not compatible with this computer" Used various E6500 Bootpacks form all over - same result every time. startosinstall doesn't want to run either - cannot communicate with helper. Using the same Install macOS High Sierra.app image + Clover (Clover guide, UEFI) i have successfully installed a E6430 so the OS image is good. No idea what am i doing wrong - any advice is welcome. Thank you very much.

Hello I have been trying to get OSX installed on my Alienware 15R4 for quite some time. It is successfully installed and i'm actually posting this very post using the same. There are a couple of problems though. This install has issues such as the nvme kernel panic issue. I have tried following multiple posts but it doesn't help. I have tried multiple ssd patches none of them work. Present config that i have is mentioned below: Alienware 15r4 i7 8750H , 32gb RAM, GTX1070OC, gsync display 120hz, 2ssd's(Hynix301 and samsung 981), 1TB SATA(only used for data). OSX is installed on Hynix partition and Windows is installed on samsung. Error that i whilst i try to copy files from samsung ssd to hynix ssd is mentioned below: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Start of MEssage<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< *** Panic Report *** panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff7f97390e2b): nvme: " NVMe: Command timed-out and request found in the completion queue\n"@/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/IONVMeFamily/IONVMeFamily-356.71.1/IONVMeController.cpp:5184 Backtrace (CPU 2), Frame : Return Address 0xffffffa3d2f7bb60 : 0xffffff8014a6d1c6 0xffffffa3d2f7bbb0 : 0xffffff8014b95a74 0xffffffa3d2f7bbf0 : 0xffffff8014b87d44 0xffffffa3d2f7bc60 : 0xffffff8014a1f1e0 0xffffffa3d2f7bc80 : 0xffffff8014a6cc3c 0xffffffa3d2f7bdb0 : 0xffffff8014a6c9fc 0xffffffa3d2f7be10 : 0xffffff7f97390e2b  0xffffffa3d2f7be30 : 0xffffff801509eb7c 0xffffffa3d2f7bea0 : 0xffffff801509eaa6 0xffffffa3d2f7bed0 : 0xffffff8014aa6624 0xffffffa3d2f7bf40 : 0xffffff8014aa6185 0xffffffa3d2f7bfa0 : 0xffffff8014a1e557 Kernel Extensions in backtrace: com.apple.iokit.IONVMeFamily(2.1)[1170C79B-9E09-3CD3-970B-C419EBF9037F]@0xffffff7f9737c000->0xffffff7f973bbfff dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleMobileFileIntegrity(1.0.5)[9AC0F895-00AA-35E6-A561-4FF35C9281B8]@0xffffff7f95d37000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.9)[70EA0775-DFBE-3132-9001-F5A9C20D0CF3]@0xffffff7f95294000 dependency: com.apple.driver.AppleEFINVRAM(2.1)[F35A52E2-CF80-3BA9-92B5-25EFE216094F]@0xffffff7f97371000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOStorageFamily(2.1)[F27A8A2A-6662-3608-83BD-415037509E01]@0xffffff7f960de000 dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOReportFamily(31)[D2F2FBDF-4EE4-38BA-99F5-B699F886F413]@0xffffff7f97330000 BSD process name corresponding to current thread: kernel_task Boot args: -lilubeta kext-dev-mode=1 -wegbeta -alcbeta  Mac OS version: 17G6030 Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 17.7.0: Wed Feb 27 00:43:23 PST 2019; root:xnu-4570.71.35~1/RELEASE_X86_64 Kernel UUID: E385ABD9-67BA-3CA7-9436-8F52D9C5634C Kernel slide: 0x0000000014800000 Kernel text base: 0xffffff8014a00000 __HIB text base: 0xffffff8014900000 System model name: MacBookPro14,3 (Mac-551B86E5744E2388) System uptime in nanoseconds: 96990501825 last loaded kext at 10228475039: com.nvidia.CUDA 1.1.0 (addr 0xffffff7f95f18000, size 12288) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<EOM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

Hello everyone! I have recently updated my xps 13 9343 from sierra 10.12.6 to high sierra 10.13.6. I know my all files are converted to apfs format and I need apfs.efi or apsfdriverloader.efi in EFI clover driversUEFI64 folder to load partition. I have dual boot Windows 10. Once I place those files to that folder, clover won't boot as all. Without those files I can only see Windows partition. So now I am stuck half way. Is there a conflict? What could be wrong?
