Yeah, finally got bare metal Catalina installed. 😀 Turns out that it didn’t like having 2 graphics cards in the machine during install - with just the one it flew along nicely. After the install I put the other one back in just to check but it didn’t miss a heart beat. The 2nd card was an Nvidia 1050, which I know can’t be used in Catalina but was installed for Proxmox when I was trying to get that to work and passing through the RX580. i have the usual restart issue that everyone else seems to have, but have now seen the other SSTDs that @iGPU has shared and also a new config file that works with Catalina and Big Sur. I will have a play with those later in the week. I did try an install of BS (with my Catalina config file) but that just hangs after the first reboot. If anybody wants my IOReg file to look at to compare between different motherboards just let me know, I have the Gigabyte Xtreme. There are a lot of files floating about in this thread and it can be hard to keep an eye on what is what and remember to update as things are discovered and files are modified. Would it be a good idea to have somewhere, maybe a sticky post or section in the downloads section, where new/updated files can be upload/downloaded to save everybody jumping around looking for things and trying to remember what each one if for, eg common SSDTs for all boards and then those specific to MSI, Gigabyte etc etc? Just an idea but could be a pain to administer depending on how it is done. Anyway, thanks for your help guys, glad to be finally up and running. Now to try the Adobe fixes later this evening.

Ah, OK. Good luck, you have got further than me so far. 🙂

Thanks for replying. I have reset CMOS and NVRAM a number of times and have CSM Disabled and Above 4G Encoding Enabled. When I get back, I'll try removing all the other NVMes and SSD/HDDs and see how it goes.

Catalina, Mojave and Big Sur will not run with a Nvidia 1080 graphics card. You need an older supported Nvidia card or an AMD one. @meina222's EFI is a few pages back, you can download it from there.

Not getting anywhere fast here I changed to a Catalina install rather than Big Sur. I am now getting “can’t perform kext scan: no kext summary” and then ”** in memory panic stackshot succeeded ** bytes traced 4064 ••” When I try with BS again I am now getting the same message and I don’t reach the [Configuring PCI] that I got to yesterday. I am away for the weekend but will try again next week Aaaarrrrrrggggg

Getting further than yesterday thanks to @meina222 but still no joy. Stops at [Configuring PCI] when trying to install Big Sur, and just stays there. Waited up to 10 minutes but it doesn’t progress any further. Will try with Catalina tomorrow but I don’t hold much hope of it progressing beyond this point, but who knows.

Thanks, I’ll try it tonight.

No luck so far for me, just error messages. I am on a different MB so will strip out as much as I can from the config.plist and try again. Have already tried without the SSDTs but exactly the same errors.
-
Much appreciated. Thanks. As soon as the weather here in the UK cools down a bit I'll start my 'playing'. I have a different MB (Gigabyte TRX40 Xtreme) to everyone else on this and Fabiosun's Proxmox thread so hopefully I can get it working.

This looks exciting. I haven't managed to get Proxmox working fully/correctly yet. I can create the Hack, use the Proxmox Console or VNC or Remote Desktop into macOS but not pass through my RX580 properly. Whenever I do that the Hack either fails to start or if it does I no longer have Console, VNC or RD control - the monitor flashes for a brief second and then displays a message saying no input is being received and goes back to sleep.. I've tried numerous different Proxmox configs but I haven't managed it yet. I would much prefer to run it as Bare Metal, either Catalina or BS as I am far happier in that environment than Proxmox. If someone would be willing to upload their full EFI I would be forever thankful. I've tried so many various things under Proxmox I'm pretty sure I've screwed everything up and need a nice fresh one that is known to work well.

Have a look HERE, at Step 13 Spoiler. There is a script in there that you can add to your CCC clone job to automatically clone your EFI partition to your CCC disk's EFI. There is a TEST_SWITCH so you can run it without actually copying the files but it outputs a list of what it would copy. Just change the switch to 'N' so that it does the copy if you are happy with the test.

My motherboard and CPU should be with me next week, so I am looking forward to building my first virtual Hackintosh. I have got through about half of this thread, so hopefully I will be uptodate by the time I start my build. So much information here, thanks guys, but I will have probably forgotten most of it by the time I am up and running. I have already downloaded the OC_EFI_Maker to get my OC.ISO built, with the latest kexts etc. but am wondering if I need any SSDTs like I use on my Z390 MB and i9-9900k CPU. I haven't seen any mention of SSDTs so I am guessing that I don't need any or I have to make my own. A pointer as to where I can get any prebuilt ones, if I need them, would be gratefully appreciated. Cheers.

Thanks for letting me know so quickly. I have now changed my order to the 3970x.

I am just about to embark on the ThreadRipper/macOS journey. I have bits on order and am awaiting delivery but I have 34 pages of this thread to read first. I know absolutely nothing about Proxmox so this will be an 'interesting journey' and who knows, by xmas I may have a working (Mac) system 🙂 I have a Gigabyte motherboard and the 3960x on order. Hopefully this will be a good combination for my Hackintosh. My 'old' i9-9900k Hack will be going to my daughter for her university degree work in Digital Animation. Building that has at least educated me a little in hackintoshing. Wish me luck 🙂
