ammoune78 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 A interesting approach of Ozmosis install i saw it here It's full Oz install but I think it will not create Recovery HD 10.13! But still good install method without having headache: Firmware..... OSInstall.pkg......., pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnx to @Kynyo for amazing help, @ammoune78 (i read about our topic in dm, will respond as soon as make 10.13 work) and @venti42 for this dope install method.

OSInstall.pkg......., pretty cool It will not create Recovery HD due to new APFS implementation, as strange as it is If i boot Sierra and I go in Disk Utility i see Recovery as hidden.

OFF Topic, my friend gave me a old asus P79-E WS 2011 mobo, do you think i can try Ozmosis in ? you can try, but on X** chipsets you don't have IGPU, so you need flawless GPU to have.

Aigors Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 you can try, but on X** chipsets you don't have IGPU, so you need flawless GPU to have. I have spare GTX660 or do you think i need to edit DSDT to "emulate" a sort of IGPU? ( i'm guessing ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( i'm guessing ) If Oz do the entire install process yes, with your GTX you can, but booting with clover I don't know if you can do it without IGPU, but give it a try! DSDT or SSDT is needed for GPU and InjectorKext also needed because of X79 Sata controller problem with Osmosis doesn't see it when booting. Bios file have a capsule header, so you need to open it with UEFITool and to extract UEFI Image from it and save it as rom or Bios version number like .1704 for example, also DSDT can't be on Bios it have a .ROM, so keep booting with just SSDT it's pretty good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elviejo Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 To be clear I have made the installation with createinstallmedia on a usb stick and clover with the givet parameters, when I try to make the installation with oz it fails ( I think we need to modify the OzmosisDefaults to incorporate the parameters, I'm going to try that approach tomorrow ), after installed you can boot directly with oz modified to incorporate the two files provided by cecekpawon Didn't work.

You can see it installs on a HFS Journaled partition so it skip the APFS conversion.... Still I will try this method and see if the partition can be converted afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elviejo Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Did you get stuck at the same spot than me ? Yea. The best option is the one pointed by Aigors a few posts back, if you want the APFS you have two options, boot with the installer and format the partition or HDD you are going to use as APFS, restart and follow the option posted by Aigors, or install as HFS and when you have it running go to disk utility and convert to APFS, it is a non destructive conversion.

Kynyo Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Restarted at minute 11 and voila! 3rd stage im in.... DESKTOP! What I could see. APFS clean install with Oz it soooo damn fast!

firefly_can_fly Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I can confirm HFS+ install from flashdrive with only OZ (i have no room for apfs in bios, when i put it in third section- its not working). So this OZ fresh and should be used as default one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
