So then I don't have the defaults.plist on any of the 2 QUO computers I have right now (one is mine - the one on the signature) and the other is my dad's wich is just the motherboard (no graphics card). Actually I don't recall putting manually any of these files, on my Dad's computer I'm sure I didn't, I just updated the BIOS and that's all. On my rackmount I was hesitating, as i wasn't recalling if last year when you helped me to upgrade to El Capitan, we did the defaults. plist. So now is clear I will copy the file and see what happens! THANKS a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 You did not need it then because you are simulating a MacPro3,1 and that is the firmware's default. But you cannot use MacPro3,1 on a modern OS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I just need to look for the serial of any modern (Mojave suitable) mac - like my macbook pro - or has to be iMac 13,2 for some specific reason in order to wok?

tlogan23 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I am on too many forums.

So the dmpstore for the bios date and version now match nvram. Booting from the Mohave USB installer, seems to hang at HID: Legacy shim 2 and then the screen locks with a funky look.

Thank you for all the help IronManJFF found that this error can be related to the USB port, so I used a different port (on back). Looks like it worked, waiting for the system to come up after the reboot from installer. not sure how Mohave will behave with my GTX470, but I will soon find out.

Looks like it worked, waiting for the system to come up after the reboot from installer. not sure how Mohave will behave with my GTX470, but I will soon find out. Well, success finally. I am now completely dual booting between Mohave and Win10Pro and apparently Mohave is ok with my GTX470. Thank you IronManGFF for your help, I guess between the USB port and the 4 finger salute issue was the final missing part of the equation. To be clear to anyone else, if your system does do a 4 finger salute properly then the values of the Efi/Oz/Default.plist should show up in your NVRAM (dmpstore -b). Something that I had forgotten about since I had installed Yosemite with this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elviejo Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 No, is not the Defaults.plist, it is something else, you remember this happened with the beta5 and later the problem got away after beta6? must be something like the aptiofix in the Oz rom because booting with a usb with clover it boots ok only that I don't want to use Clover. I was trying to see if you used something else in the Efi/Oz folder. Thanks anyway, lets keep investigating, keep you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
