hmm, is it possible to select load vbios under graphics in config.plist without injecting Nvidia? (for my card injection gives me 0mb vram)

 

edit: lol, and still have the rom file load (I'm assuming this shows the rom being used)...

I am having issues with KextToPatch. Bootlog shows this:

What is wrong?

The only way is this one

You can try this config.plist attaching

No ;(

I search many days DSDT for my MOBO, but not get.

I don't know how create this DSDT for my MOBO.

I get my DSDT from Clover F4, but I don't know how I patch it.

Send me here on Zip  the complete folder ORIGIN

All my hackintoshes had black background. I saw gray apple in random cases.

 

Yes, but you need to use an SMBIOS that is supported by yosemite(?) and then not subsequent releases? Any SMBIOS that still works is going to have black background because the firmware has for sure been updated. You can google darkboot and see how they used board-id patch and nvram variables to modify the boot screen. Also IIRC that nvram variable for background color is set back to default every restart/shutdown.

Monitor OFF, but PC still working ;(

Try This one ?

EDIT ****

if not working you have to follow some explanation about your ➤  NForce mobo for patching DSDT nForce motherboard

Good luck  B)

EDIT ****  2

Maybe ask for help from MaLd0n for patching DSDT

So... I have made some progress without doing what you have suggested. Because since my ethernet NICs are on-board I do not think this would work.

 

I created a SSDT:

External (_SB_.PCI0, DeviceObj)    // (from opcode)
    External (_SB_.PCI0.PEX0.BR1B, DeviceObj)    // (from opcode)
    External (_SB_.PCI0.PEX1, DeviceObj)    // (from opcode)
    External (DTGP, MethodObj)    // 5 Arguments (from opcode)

    Scope (\_SB.PCI0.PEX0.BR1B)
    {
        Name (_STA, Zero)  // _STA: Status
    }

    Device (_SB.PCI0.PEX0.ETH0)
    {
        Name (_ADR, Zero)  // _ADR: Address
        Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)  // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
        {
            If (LEqual (Arg2, Zero))
            {
                Return (Buffer (One)
                {
                     0x03                                           
                })
            }

            Store (Package (0x14)
                {
                    "AAPL,slot-name", 
                    "Built In", 
                    "model", 
                    Buffer (0x0D)

                        "Intel 82574L"
                    }, 

                    "built-in", 
                    Buffer (One)
                    {
                         0x00                                           
                    }, 

                    "device-id", 
                    Buffer (0x04)
                    {
                         0xF6, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00                         
                    }, 

                    "vendor-id", 
                    Buffer (0x04)
                    {

                    }, 

                    "subsystem-vendor-id", 
                    Buffer (0x04)
                    {
                         0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00                         
                    }, 

                    "subsystem-id", 
                    Buffer (0x04)
                    {
                         0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00

                    {
                        "ethernet"
                    }, 

                    "location", 
                    Buffer (0x02)
                    {
                        "1"
                    }, 

                    "name", 
                    Buffer (0x09)
                    {
                        "ethernet"
                    }
                }, Local0)
            DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
            Return (Local0)
        }
    }

Took the Intel82574L.kext from System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/Plugins and added it to Clover/kexts/Other and rebooted. This didn't work either so I tried editing the info.plist from Intel82574L.kext to change IOPCIPrimaryMatch Key value to IOPCIMatch and that also didn't work, then I noticed there was a secondary matching Key value which is IOPCISecondaryMatch and deleted that entry completely and rebooted and "BOOM" it worked. Now I am trying to figure out how to patch IOPCIPrimaryMatch to IOPCIMatch and to remove a key value completely using KextsToPatch Info.plist in Clover.

Ok finally got to work, I found out that you do not need to rename IOPCIPrimaryMatch to IOPCIMatch, all you have to do is rename IOPCISecondaryMatch to something of the same length of characters so the patch is as follows to make Intel 82574L Ethernet NICs to work with the native kext:

<key>ForceKextsToLoad</key>
<array>
<string>\System\Library\Extensions\IONetworkingFamily.kext\Contents\PlugIns\Intel82574L.kext</string>
</array>

Then:

<key>KextsToPatch</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>Comment</key>
<string>Remove IOPCISecondaryMatch</string>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>Find</key>
<data>
SU9QQ0lTZWNvbmRhcnlNYXRjaA==

<key>InfoPlistPatch</key>
<true/>
<key>Name</key>
<string>Intel82574L</string>
<key>Replace</key>
<data>

</data>
</dict>
</array>

With the following in a SSDT:

        Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)  // _DSM: Device-Specific Method
        {
            If (LEqual (Arg2, Zero))
            {
                Return (Buffer (One)
                {
                     0x03

Quick question:  is there any way to mount the EFI partition from the Terminal?

 

Right now I use Clover Configurator, and Google has also shown me another GUI app "EFI Mounter v3". 

 

But is there no command I can use from the command line?

 

Thanks.

use "diskuti list" to see all the disks and partitions

 

diskutil mount disk0s1

 

where disk0 is the disk that you want to mount the EFI partition of and s1 is the identifier of the EFI partition

 

e.g

 

 

/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER

   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *240.1 GB   disk0

   1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk0s1

   2:                 Apple_APFS Container disk4         239.8 GB   disk0s2
