HOW TO INSTALL MONTEREY BETA 8 ON THREADRIPPER TRX40s

 

 

As you may have seen on OSX Discord server... last nights install of Monterey beta 8 didn't go to plan. It downloaded fine with j160 reboot, then when SBM=Disabled and Nvram reset, it wouldn't install beta 8 despite three re-download attempts too.

I didn't want to go the iMac17,1 way so I thought I would wait until a solution cropped up. Today, it did.

 

The new version of RestrictEvents Kext together with the latest Release candidate of OC 0.74 now works - and it won't upset your memory configuration (as set out by iGPU)

 

Here's the RestrictEvents kext, & download OC0.74: RestrictEvents.zip

Source: https://github.com/acidanthera/RestrictEvents/commit/2430ed06c15a9f3dd94634ab68e208c8b762e11d

 

This will negate the need to do anything like change your SMBIOS to iMac17,1 OR SBM=j160 🙂

 

Just install OC0.74, include the restrictEvents kext in your kext folder, then Propertree snapshot it into your config/EFI.

 

Reboot, it sees the update, installs, reboots just fine!

Job done.

 

 

I confirm the driftwood method with OpenCore 0.7.4 and RestrictEvents.Kext allows upgrading to Monterey Beta 8 without modifying the SMBIOS.

 

As I do not support the RestrictEvents memory layout information window, I used the boot argument: revnopatch = mempci to find the one for a 2019 Mac Pro.

After all I have a Mac Pro 2021🤪

Yeah you're not forced to use RestrictEvents permanently. You can just use it to grab the updates/then disable the kext and then iGPU's 'MemoryDevices' method comes back... and do what you have done very elegantly!

I do not use RestrictEvents.kext because it could create randomly some problem during booting stage,

I have it in the folder's kext because it helps to update from Monterey beta 7 to 8 without changing SMBIOS or Secure Boot Model parameter

I will see in the next beta if here will be the same

However my system is stable without it 100% so I do not use RE.kext

So the Titan Ridge Card v.2.0 finally arrived. I popped it in an in the PCI section of hardware I can already find it. Thunderbolt is empty.

 

I suppose it will not work without flashing the chips?

 

Also one question about iMessage: it worked for a few days now but now I cannot login anymore. Is this a known problem?

Correct, you need to flash _a_ chip.

 

iMessage requires proper log in to iCloud with your Apple ID. Sometimes signing in and out of App Store or Music app helps. Also, you need to have (one) internet connection assigned "en0".

How to re-set to "en0" has been discussed before, but in case you've forgotten:

 

Spoiler

Re-set “en0” ethernet configuration from Terminal, then re-boot computer:

 

sudo rm /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist

Every now and then, since Monterey beta 6, this happens on my system with a percentage of 1 boot not working with 10 working

it would appear to be tied to the network card after the attached color screen, which appears in my monitor connected in hdmi

both monitors go to black screen with signal

I can't say it with extreme certainty but before beta 6 it didn't happen and the same didn't happen with Big Sur

Maybe it will be a SIP problem?

mmmmm

BYS4 should be intel Ethernet I think..and it is not connected (also no kext installed for it)

BYS4 is the location of my internal AX200 card, which can appear as an ethernet access. (I use a section of a USB port SSDT file to cancel this card.) 

 

But I thought your mobo has no Wifi card.

 

Are you using an SSDT, DevProp, or kext file (with its Info.plist file containing a definition) with BYS4?

by now I have disabled them from Bios

I will test for some days in this condition, today I have had no problem in this condition

Will see if it is enough

if it works I will test re enabling them in bios and using Smaltree kext

 

thank you

@iGPUand @all 6900xt owners..

take a look to this thread (hackintosh-forum.de)

I have lowered my max GPU temps of about 10 degrees only loosing a bit of performances in my task (thanks to Aluveitie and his SoftPowerPlay for device properties)

 

PowerPlayTable thread

 

 

 

@fabiosun 

 

I did similar DevProp for Vega56, Vega64 and Radeon VIIs.

 

I don't see the actual PPTable data; where are did you get it (or can you post the code in a spoiler on this thread)? Thanks.

 

[I don't have Windows working; I tried installing Win 11 today and despite carefully only installing on drive 0, Win 11 decided during the install formatted drive 0 and drive 1 (my Monterey drive), and then to make matters worse, failed to install. I'm so annoyed with MS... So the rest of my free time today, I'm re-installing Monterey on drive 1 and copying things from drive 2, which thankfully Win 11 did not also re-format.]

I asked to aluveitie to post his data here

https://www.hackintosh-forum.de/forum/thread/54924-radeon-gpu-temperatur-mit-virtualsmc/?postID=720620&highlight=Gadget#post720620

 

about windows 11

i have had many problems , different from yours

the only way for me to instal it was starting from another pc the installation or update an existent windows in my rig

painfull

I don't think I need to remind you that this is specific to my chip and yours might do better or worse with it :D

The new cards behave quite differently than the Vegas, AMD pumped a lot of unnecessary voltage through the VII and you could safe a lot of power without sacrificing performance on it.

 

The 6900 XT came far better tuned, there was almost no room to undervolt without limiting the maximum frequency with my chip.

My SPPT is on the more aggressive side since mine is in an ITX case with just 3 120mm rads and a SFX PSU. If I remember correctly the max frequency is 2200 MHz which results in a 5-7% performance hit but reduces the power draw to around 220-250W. At those settings the card is very efficient, still slightly faster than a 6800 XT but I rarely see the GPU hitting 55 C under load.

Big Sur Updated: 11.6.1 easily with latest OC 0.74 (SecureBootMethod=Default) As simply as Monterey Beta 9. Thats all.

Any chance you'd be willing to share your latest EFI? I can't seem to get past; 

EB|#LOG:EXITBS:START


Which is the first time I run into this issue, having basically figured out all MMIO stuff and so forth prior. Not sure if I messed it up when going from 0.7.2 to 0.7.4, but doesn't work at all to downgrade either now.

Don't remember Hackintosh being this complicated back in the day. 😉

 

Edit: Out of embarrassment I won't share how, but I Managed to boot, but would still love to compare configs. 😅

 

@fabiosun I remember you mentioned a potential workaround to boot with 64 cores multithreaded, any chance you could elaborate? I seem to have a solid and stable system at the moment, just need to figure out bluetooth and some minor stuff.

Here it is

config.zip 5.28 kB · 1 download

 

Ps. Got sound working, Bluetooth mostly working (lots of weird bugs tho).

Have you tried with this config to boot with all cores enabled?

if it is not working as I think you can try to use an Xcode app (instruments) and limit there cpu core to 32

it could be possible also to try a boot arg (cpu or cpus =32) and see

 

but no illusion about it because also some important lib should be capped to work

 

only some tries to do!
