Just put it on a USB stick, reboot, press F12 and select the USB stick.
-
@infonow you have it installed, have you tried my original OC & config to see if it is any better?
-
Plug it into the TRX (or install it internally), but boot from my OC EFI on a USB stick (F12). OC will then see the transplanted installation and allow you to load that. OR Just replace the whole Clover EFI with the OC one.
-
You should be able to boot a system transplanted from another machine, just use the EFI for the TRX4, not the one from the other hack. Can you get hold of an RX580 for example? Get one from Amazon, try that and then return it. That way at least you eliminate/confirm it is a graphics card problem.
-
Do yo have an external USB drive? If so you could do a Carbon Copy of your running system (real Mac / another Hack?) and then try and boot to that on the TRX4. That was the way I first started, couldn't install straight away. I put another M.2 drive in my Hack, Carbon Copied my running system and put that in the new one. I could then boot that and do a fresh install from that to my new M.2.

Check the label on the box it came in, it will say Rev 1.0 or Rev 1.1. It will also be screen printed on the MB somewhere. As Fabiosun says, disable the SSDTs. My system boots with and without them (I haven't got round to testing everything works without them yet). It isn't getting to a point where kexts would be loaded.
-
If you loaded the profile then everything is ok. You don't by any chance have the Rev 1.1 of the motherboard do you? I don't know what the difference are between Rev 1.0 and 1.1. 1 more thing you could try is to remove the X.M.P profile in the BIOS. I can't think of anything else atm.
-
One other thing to try could be to move the GTX to slot 2 or 4. I think we have run out of possibilities atm but the GTX is natively supported so should be OK. Which slot is your M.2 installed in? I've just noticed you have a Gigabyte M.2. Some M.2 drives aren't comparable with macOS (due to the controller chip on them). Do you have another brand you could try, or just a normal SSD (remove the M.2 first)?
-
No, that won't make a difference, until you try to sign in with your Apple ID. Big Sur has just this minute appeared in the App Store so you could download it from there, might be easier.
-
I don't think it will make any difference, who knows until you try, but you can use the attached to download Big Sur (run gibMacOS.command). Once downloaded run the downloaded install assistant and it will create the installer in your Applications folder. Copy that to your USB. That last config file I sent you, I forgot to remove my serial numbers etc, please change them to yours. gibMacOS-master.zip
-
As it is Catalina rather than Big Sur that you are wanting to install, try changing SecureBootModel from Disabled to Default. (in Misc | Security)

Big Sur 11.0.1 released, 20B29.

I must get my eyes tested 😂😂

Why have you got config.plist in Bootstrap? There should be a file called bootstrap.efi in there.
-
That is right for the EFI. The next thing I would try would be to select ClearNvram, but do it 3 or 4 times. Then press the space bar and select the reset nvram option. It should then reboot automatically.
-
Is that when you select the Install macOS Catalina / Big Sur or before that. If after, please check the config.plist and ensure that SecureBootMode is set to Disabled. EDIT:- Attached is my latest config.plist that is booting my system just fine. I don't think it changed but just in case here it is. config.plist.zip
-
@info I've just got home. I'll post a bios settings profile for you to load shortly. EDIT:- Attached is my bios profile, unzip it and copy to a USB stick. Boot to your bios setup and select Advanced. Select the last tab on the right and then the 'Load Profile' button at the bottom of the page. Select the USB stick and then the profile file (called TRX40Profile). Then select "Save and exit". Immediately after it reboots, go back into the bios and go to the same tab. Save the profile to one of the 10 entries and give it a name. TRX40Profile.zip
-
Nothing to add or change. Just make sure you have the latest F4l BIOS. I don't expect there to be any changes needed. RC2 boots fine and will probably be the actual release version, only tomorrow will tell.
-
On my real 16" MBP, up until this evening this used to say "macOS Big Sur Beta" The beta has now disappeared and the file size has also grown from 11.xx GB to 12.19 GB. If you put your system info in your signature, it will be easier for others to help you as they will know what components you have. Most of us on here have done that as you will see on every post.
-
Sanity Checker is just a rough guide and most of what it flags is irrelevant to TRX40 (and a lot for Intel systems as well!). Trust more what you read on this thread as we have all been there and have booting/working systems.
-
Big Sur Release Candidate 2 (20B28) is now available to download via your developer account (or gibmacOS-master etc). EDIT:- No problems with the update.

Anybody else's Catalina system, that is not enrolled in the beta program, being offered the latest Big Sur Beta (Release Candidate / GM)? This is also happening on my real MBP that has never been in a beta program.

I've never used MatLab but you can try one, the other, or both of these:- Apply the AMD Adobe patches to Matlab (change what folder the scripts looks for to patch, ie change Adobe* to MatLab* or whatever it is called) If memory servers me right, which it doesn't always do 😀, PS etc use some of the same MKL libraries as MatLab. Use a script, as below, to launch MatLab, try values 5 or 2.
