maccaroni Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 (edited) I was gifted a Threadripper w/ motherboard from a friend (traded for a rare bottle of bourbon) so I decided to try my hands at a Ryzentosh before I go back to a Apple. The website has been super helpful in getting started, but after many adjustments and attempts I'm stuck with the same results. Install of MacOS Ventura / Sonoma hangs at 12 min and computer freezes up (mouse stops working). I've tried different OpenCore versions, Quirks, boot-args, kexts, MMIO Whitelist with the same results. I've also patched for the 32-core Threadripper in the kernel but I feel like there could be patches I'm overlooking in the ACPI. Any help getting the install done would be appreciated.

One reason (personal reason) is inside your Olarila/kext EFI you have a bunch of ethernet kext there not useful in your rig and many other unproper stuff 😛 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maccaroni Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 I’ve replaced the 1080ti with a GC Radeon RX 6600 XT and recreated the installer with a different drive and a redownloaded macOS Ventura and the results were the same. Anyone have a solution for the 12 minutes freeze, because I’m out of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maccaroni Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Here it is, tried to install Monterey, Ventura, and Sonoma with identical results. I removed Intel wireless kexts so its small enough to upload. TRx40 Xtreme EFI (no itw).zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maccaroni Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 @fabiosun First I have to say thank you for responding with a solution so quickly. I put the config.plist into my OC folder and things were running the same until the recovery screen was about to pop up and the screen went black • this is because my GC Radeon RX 6600 XT only wants to work with "agdpmod=ignore". Nothing else worked • When it got to 12 minutes, verbose mode came back and it rebooted to the installer like its supposed to! Boom 29 minutes left. Rebooted again to continue, long verbose screen then SSD boot, reboot and voila! Ventura splash screen! 🙌🎉 You're a genius what was missing/removed?

Supervisor fabiosun Posted February 20 Supervisor Share Posted February 20 Hi @maccaroni i bypassed mmio whitelist that was wrong you have to do better or set on DisableVariableWrite booter quirk on about gpu try without Whatevergreen kext or without -v bootarg because some rx6600 have problem with one of these settings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maccaroni Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 (edited) I turned off verbose mode and poof, no more black screen! Brilliant suggestion, I guess my card doesn’t like it. Got wireless network activated through Heliport, now to attempt to activate Thunderbolt and AppleVtd. 🤞 Edited February 22 by maccaroni Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maccaroni Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 Thunderbolt card is working with hot plug for USB drives, I just haven't gotten it to recognize the Thunderbolt drive. I supposed if it will recognize Thunderbolt devices I won't need AppleVtd because only a few rarely used devices require it in order to work.
