[fabiosun]

pay attention 

in my case and only tested with other bootloader this PR new patch is not working..

I can use the one posted on insanelymac by algrey (useful only for OSX greater than HighSierra)

So if you want try @your own risk as usual with a solid backup to recover 😉

Follow your instruction and adapted with your config-patch.plist it still can not boot beta2 or beta3 of Monterey.

It can boot 10.13.x~12.0 beta1 only.

post your config.plist only

 

you should also post a debug..just in case 🙂

 

[fabiosun]

no @jsl2000

has your cpu  8 cores?

if so with 0 patch you use in your config it is no good

now I am solving a problem caused to me from new patch and the experiment

but patch you use has no mask

so you have to fill better replace

if 8 cores

8-1=7=07

then also count should be to 0 in that initial patch

 

@jsl2000you have also to enable quirk:

ProvideCurrentCpuInfo

 

[fabiosun]

jsl2000

sorry 

only one of this

are the same patch only a different revision

 

and both wrong

Thanks for your prompt reply and help.

Mine is Ryzen 1700X (8C/16T).

So what's the correct patch for this ?

@jsl2000

I see too many patches in your previous config

try to reduce and then try to use 0 patch with a value of 07

Now you have 08 in replace

then you have also to enable quirk I have said

Thanks again ! You are my hero !

This brief version can boot Monterey beta2 now !

I'll try to boot beta3 after update it.

[fabiosun]

great Thank you @jsl2000

remember proper credit to this forum on "others" 🙂

 

[fabiosun]

@jsl2000I know you use also clover bootloader..

with that bootloader same patches plus 2 more.

Obviously converted with right names 😉

 

by the way you can also refine your 0 patch, but in this moment I couldn't advice to use PR ones because I have not tested it properly.

then..with these set of patches you can boot also Big Sur from 11.4 to 11.5 release

Thank you very much.

This brief version can update Monterey beta2 to beta3 without any issue.

The only issue is RestrictEvents.kext can not show Ryzen CPU name correctly with this brief version.

I'll try to boot by Clover tomorrow and let you know the result.

Great news: My FX-6300 also worked at Monterey beta3 now by OC 0.7.1 and it shows correct AMD CPU name !

I am getting totally confused, and am running round in circles trying to work out what is what, by the number of different patch lists being posted now and what needs to be changed in the various different versions / variants.

 

Is there a definitive list of what is 'the better / best' set of patches we should be using for our Threadripper hacks to be able to run Big Sur 11.5 and the latest beta (3) of Monterey?

 

I am not interested in running earlier versions of macOS prior to Big Sur, nor Clover.

[fabiosun]

@Ploddles

it's all happening now and I've personally tried to get all the information I could

I've also been working from the start to get clover going

so I'm sorry if I haven't been clear

Now you have everything available the only patch you need to calculate after you add the new ones or update the old ones is the one posted above

That allows you to delete several other patches if you want as I did for jsl2000

if you send me your config working with big sur

I try to fix it But I don't have any experience with wifi and blurtooth that I don't use 🙂

[Ploddles]

@fabiosun it is not that you have been unclear but reading various posts both on here, amd-osx and insanelymac, I am confusing myself 😀

 

My current set that works for BS and Monterey is attached below and if I have understood some of what I have read then this list should be able to be cut down by about 50%.

 

Sorry to add to your work load but thank you for all the hard work you have put in.

@PloddlesI asked your config because I have to see also used quirk

I think you are using a new opencore version and I have to know if you have enabled this quirk:

ProvideCurrentCpuInfo

 

[tomnic]

Using official OC 0.7.1 and this config with reduced patches thanks to @fabiosun I successfully booted Monterey beta 3 in my AMD Ryzen 9 rig.

 

Wonderful!

new patch algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package:

Below I hope an useful schema taken from Shaneee Opencore PR

 

COMMENT: algrey - Force cpuid_cores_per_package
FIND: c1 e8 1a 00 00 00
MASK : FF FD FF 00 00 00
BASE:  _cpuid_set_info          
COUNT: 1
REPLACE high sierra to mojave:  b8 XX 00 00 00 00               
REPLACE from catalina to big sur :  ba XX 00 00 00 00                  
REPLACE MASK high sierra to big sur : FF FF FF FF FF 00 
REPLACE monterey : ba XX 00 00 00 90                 
REPLACE MASK monterey : FF FF FF FF FF FF

 

 

3970x --->32 cores

XX=20

 

3960x--->24 cores

XX=18

 

3950x--->18 cores

XX=10

 

and so on 🙂

 

so for all system from high Sierra you have three different patches (common find and mask)

different replace and replace mask

minKernel and maxKernel do the jobs to enable proper ones for OS you use

 

I am using an old patch posted on @jsl2000config.plist which works in BIG SUR and all Monterey Beta 

But latest PR uses above patching 😉

I've changed your patches (commenting out your old ones), and re-adjusted all of your Quirks.

 

Try this one as is (except obviously for PlatformInfo/Generic stuff).

 

The first 3 patches are the new algrey ones written out for the 3970X with one each for Monterey, Catalina-BS, and the third for HS-Mojave.

Thank you.

 

I forget if your board has an Aquantia port. If not, you can delete or disable the last 2 patches which are for Aquantia.

 

 

[fabiosun]

@Ploddles i think @iGPUpatches revision is good for you , maybe you can disable a couple if you do not use Mojave and high Sierra and if you use Big Sur >= 11.4 🙂

I see. Thanks so much for the info.

I deleted my Catalina drive a few weeks ago and now only have Big Sur 11.5 and Monterey Beta 1. I will be trying the new patches & quirks over the weekend. I will disable / delete patches 2 & 3, and the last 2, as they are not applicable for me. If all goes well then I will try updating to Beta 3.

 

Thanks to both of you. 👍
