beaglenz Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I've upgraded to Sierra successfully using elviejo's ROM and booted using internal HDMI graphics BUT I cannot boot using my external graphics card a GTX 760. I have followed the BIOS settings for OSX/LINUX (which I haven't had to use for years) but still no go. Can anyone help here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 What are you trying to do here ? Dual-monitor setup or only 1 monitor connected to GTX 760? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaglenz Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 What are you trying to do here ? Dual-monitor setup or only 1 monitor connected to GTX 760? Single monitor. Actually just did an SMC/PRAM reset and am now able to boot using external graphics card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ntsmkfob Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Every time I do a BIOS update I forget to change the new BIOS settings to allow legacy boot, and wonder why I can't get to my recovery partition to disable SIP. At least I've learnt how to use bcfg in the shell now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 What happens when you try to get into RecoveryHD ? Have you tried RecoveryHD in single-user mode ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntsmkfob Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 It's easy to boot from the shell, as it gives the info needed to add it to the boot list. I haven't tried single-user mode. If I did things in the right order it would be a doddle, but there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stayupforever909 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Hi All Quick question which I think I know the answer to if I update to the mac mini xmas Rom do I need to clear all of my nvram vlaues eg: serial number. If so whats the best way to get messages/facetime working again? Also is it really worth it is macOS Sierra any good. Maybe wait for 10.12.1? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntsmkfob Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I think the best solution is to have a Defaults.plist with all your preferred settings in EFI/Oz. Then, when you load a new BIOS, you can do Cmd-Option-P-R to load the contents of the Defaults.plist into NVRAM. That way you're never bothered by whatever the BIOS defaults are. Do the same to make it pick up any changes in your Defaults.plist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toastie Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Just ran into an odd problem. I went to the Mac App store to download Sierra, and I get a message that the system is not supported. In NVRAM, my system is set to report as as 27" iMac Late 2012. That is supported by Sierra. I'm running the H20.167X-MASS bios. Suggestions?

ntsmkfob Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 After update to Sierra, with Elvejo's BIOS, no input or output sound devices, although bdmesg shows all the right stuff going on. Kextloading slice's new 2.8.9 VoodooHDA gets it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwdrummer0 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Hey guys, I need some emergency help. I was booted in my mavericks partition then tried restarting then booting into my El Capitan partition. When I restarted, I had a message from the quo board saying that the bios needed to be set back to factory defaults ( or something like that). I figured it was a bios crash. I reset the bios and then tried booting into El Capitan. When the boot screen came up for El Capitan, the computer would either restart as soon as the apple load screen came up or I would not get a loading progress bar and it would hang there. Odd thing is that I can still boot up in the Mavericks partition.. Ive tried resetting NVRAM also with no luck. Not sure what is going on but if anyone could help me out, I would love you forever.. Edit: I just did a complete reinstall of El Capitan and still had issues booting with Ozmosis, same issue as above. I was able to boot the volume with clover though... Anyone know what I can do to get Ozmosis to boot the OS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwdrummer0 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 SIP .... Boot from RecoveryHD and then in Terminal csrutil enable --without nvram if you have non-signed kexts csrutil enable --without nvram --without kext This worked! Odd that this whole time having SIP disabled was working on boot. I wonder what changed for me to have to reenable it. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioxx Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Installed sierra. So what you need to install it? you must flush the H2O 1671 ROM otherwise sierra will stuck on boot processing. you must install the second macOS that can boot with no sip e.g. yosemite to disable SIP you must simulate iMac because the minimac cannot use pluggable video card maybe you need a partition to make a installation source. LOL So many tried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
