Asus X99 Deluxe Yosemite Succes, El Capitan No Succes

Hello, 

 

A few months ago I have successfully installed Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on Asus X99 Deluxe with Radeon r290x Graphics card.

 

Yesterday I have successfully updated to Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 without problems, I only had to re-patch AppleHDA after that.

 

I have used rampagedev's guide to make this system work and did not have many problems with the Yosemite installation as I am quite experienced in installing Hackintoshes and I like his method.

 

The only problem I have left bluetooth is not working. Wifi works, 2 ethernet ports functional, ALC1150 works with AppleHDA

If you read everything well on his site you won't have many problems installing the OS, only I found out the version of OsxAptioFixDrv in latest clover revision does not work with this system (r3330), so I had to replace that driver with the old version that was already installed.

 

I have added this other OsxAptioFixDrv because I have added the entire clover folder in this post including my config.plist and UEFI64 folder:

 

the only problem with this OsxAptioFixDrv is that it won't work with the El Capitan USB installer. I have tried 10.11.1 and 10.11.2. I have solved this by using another computer to install the OS and after that replace the HDD in the X99 Deluxe and then it does boot and work with this version of OsxAptioFixDrv, but I ran into other problems, I have been able to boot to the Desktop in El Capitan, but it was very unstable and would randomly crash on different moments. So mostly before I got into the Desktop, but 3 out 50 times it would boot into the OS, but of course this a serious problem and unwanted situation.

 

Something about FSCompression, CPUID unknown, I have made some screenshots.

 

TLB invalidation IPI timeout: "CPU(s) failed to respond to interrupts I can read.

 

and com.apple.AppleFSCompression.AppleFSCompressionTypeZlib (see the screen shots)

 

Another strange issue, all kexts in 10.11 (Clover) wouldn't load, I solved this by installing them to System/Library/Extensions, but of course this is not the best solution (I think).

 

Here is my entire EFI folder including OsxAptioFixDrv, config.plist and everything:

Patched AppleHDA 10.10.3 I am using(for Yosemite):

and here is my IOReg:

I hope someone can solve this problem, and that the other files I have attached are useful for other Asus X99 Deluxe owners,

 

Merry christmas everyone by the way ;)

1.- Using Kexts meant for older versions of OS X is a mess .

A minimal change on the kext by apple, requires a re-patch of it, once you got El Capitan 100 % Bootable without errors, you'll can concentrate into AppleHDA Patching .

 

2.- Me and many people we recommend using OsxAptioFixDrv2 instead of OsxAptioFixDrv .

 

3.- As i see, on your config.plist, appears :

kext-dev-mode=1

Why put this boot flag if isn't needed on El Capitan .

Anyways, if you still need this, on El Capitan, changed it's "Invocation" :

Use " rootless=0 " ( Without quotation marks ) instead of kext-dev-mode=1 .

 

4.- Keep your clover drivers ordered as per needs :

Delete :

From drivers64UEFI :

EmuVariableUefi-64.efi ( Why apply this if your UEFI Board has got NVRam by default ? ) , VBoxHfs-64.efi ( Well, you are not running OS X under a Virtual Box guest so ... ) .

From drivers32UEFI :

VBoxHfs-64.efi .

 

5.- Using a SSDT not meant for your PC will generate errors 

Delete your SSDT.aml from /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched to avoid problems related to CPU Power Management ( I think that this should fix unknown CPUID, if not, i should reconsider using FakeCPUID for at least arrive to the OS X installer ) .

 

6.- Injecting kexts need FSInject.efi, you have it so ...

When you boot to Clover, go to options, then you will see an option called "Set OS version if not", delete it's contents ( For example, you will see 10.10.10 or 10.9 depending on your clover version ) and put 10.11 .

 

7.- Your desktop is crashing probably because of the graphics card, search a little bit of info about your graphics card, and if it's compatible, just enable it .

 

Cheers

Hi Joel.

 

Thank you for  your reply. I have not yet installed AppleHDA in El Capitan, because I never got the system stable.

 

I have tried OsxAptioFixDrv-2 without succes, the only version of OsxAptioFixDrv that works for me is in the attached files above.

 

But this version DOES NOT WORK with the USB installer with El Capitan 10.11.1/10.11.2. I had to use my other hackintosh to get trough the install procedure, after installation this version of OsxAptioFixDrv DOES WORK with OSX 10.11.1/10.11.2 but only when it is installed on the HDD.

 

I don't have acces to the system at the moment but I will add the rootless flag and remove kext-dev-mode=1 like you say and also change OSX version in clover options to see if kexts get loaded from clover 10.11 folder .

 

the SSDT is special for this system and comes from the X99 dmg on rampagedev's site. It makes the airport work f.e., I can try to remove the SSDT (temporarily) but I don't think this is the best solution.

 

I wil remove vboxhfs and put hfsplus.efi.

 

For the graphics, I could temporarily remove the graphics drivers and see if this makes any difference or do some tests with Nvidia GT730 I have lying around somewhere which is supported natively in OSX.

 

As soon as I have access to the system I will report back.

 

Merry christmas,

 

Nikita

Extra PCI Cards: ASUS ThunderboltEX II/DUAL - Thunderbolt-adapter 

PCI Express 2.0 x4

 

An USB3.1 PCI card that came with the motherboard. 

 

It is NOT WORKING with El Capitan, I only have Yosemite running, but bluetooth and thunderbolt are not working in Yosemite. Thunderbolt is not even working in windows 10, we never figured that out.

 

I could not find an OsxAptioFixDrv that works with the 10.11.1/10.11.2 USB installer, I have to use another computer to install it, after that this version of OsxAptioFixDrv works with El Capitan from HDD, but the system will crash at a different point ( see the photo's in post #1) (OsxAptioFixDrv/OsxAptioFixDrv2 from clover r3330 is not working at all I have to use an older version).

 

It would not always crash at the same point, I got on the desktop a few times, but then it crashed again.

 

I have installed El Capitan on a different Asus X99 Deluxe with different configuration, so I suspect it is the memory, the graphics card, or maybe the USB3.1/Thunderbolt PCI or the processor of course.

:( Just about ending my efforts in attempting a 10.11.2 installation, although many thanks goes out to Fijagd for his method of X99 Installation, i've gotten farther with this technique than the more conventional methods. I still, however, cannot get past this kernel panic (http://imgur.com/66FhZwF) and have tried numerous config.plist settings to no avail. What the heck am I doing wrong? Seems close, yet miles away to a succesful boot. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. thanks. ssprod

in S / L / E delete IOBluetoothFamily.kext

KP'd again, however I think the issue is solved...I disabled Serial Port in the bios and she booted with graphics disabled. Question---->using your method, I have done the work so far on a "spare" drive. Can I "clone" this to my actual new drive that I'd like to use? Will everything remain intact? What software would you recommend to do this? Thanks very much Fljagda,

This is good news, it was only an adjustment of bios

To clone no problem with CCC (Copy Carbon Cloner)

I always use Paragon Hard Disk Manager 14 to clone stuff, this works from windows and you can also create a bootable USB with the paragon software, based on linux or on windowsPE.

 

I will try to install/upgrade without the ssdt, can someone give me a link to the upgrade guide? I can not try this possible solution immediately because I don't have access to the system at the moment, I will report back.
