Mojave wont boot on my system with VirtualSMC. It says it cant find SMC. HighSierra has no problems.

Have you tried clearing your NVRAM using F11 in Clover boot menu? Also please keep kext specific issues in the right forum. VirtualSMC

Update made with FakeSMC, and without kexts update and I have sound...

The update for me was 1.55 GB, too ... As you can see, in the second photo it says Public Beta macOS Mojave 9...

Works OK here with Clover r4658, App Store upgrade to DB10_18A384a on my Skylake NUC6i5SYH...

...

And... why you get no weird Apple Top Menu Bar on LightMode? Is it with reduced transparency?

It is 6,00 GB here. At first it didn't show up. I tried all 4 settings from SWUSwitcher (was originally in Developer Seed Programme) multiple times, didn't help. Tried macOSPublicBetaAccessUtility.dmg again. No luck. Rebooted between almost each attempt. And after the second time of macOSPublicBetaAccessUtility.dmg and no reboot it finally found it.

Alright, let's see.

Edit 1:

… And that downloaded the "Install macOS Mojave Beta.app" into my Applications folder. I've never downloaded a whole macOS from within System Preferences. This was a first time experience!

But:

I do not want to reinstall everything from scratch.

How do I make my update works? I've tried SWUSwitcher and Apples official macOSPublicBetaAccessUtility.dmg method… It doesn't show up:

mojave9.png.01c9de75670dc38c9b2638127161d319.png

That is 18A377a telling me that.

Any ideas?

Use this script. Q7-Update-installScript/installScript_1014

If you enrolled your device on Apple Beta Program, then running "macOSPublicBetaAccessUtility.dmg", so what you get is a Full Installer of macOS 10.14 Beta (instead of Updates), except, with APFS - System Preferences - Software Updates.

My brain must look like a swiss cheese… I totally forgot that I need to use your script because of your Mojave MBR HFS Firmware Check Patch 10.14.x, which I used (GUID HFS+ Journaled mode)! Terribly sorry for the confusion and noise my mistake produced here.

Everything went smoothly from then on. Your updater script says 2577M size for the macOSUpdCombo10.14.pkg, Finder says 2,7 GB. I managed to archive the macOSUpdCombo10.14.pkg from /tmp. Quick question about that: Could I now reinstall this appearantly yet unpatched macOSUpdCombo10.14.pkg with Installer.app without breaking anything?

Sadly 18A384a still does not fix my Exposé/Mission Control. I've reported that to Apple first in 10.13.3 (or was it 10.13.1 already?). Other than that, Mojave runs really nice over here.

Ahhh, I did not know this, thanks for clarifying! I'm excited to see what Apple will decide to happen with the first official combo update (Edit 2: Or rather all of the release combo updates instead of just the first one… /Edit 2). Will it works on HFS+ Journaled without patching anything? I do hope so.

As I know, GUID HFS+ can't update-auto, need to use script to update. Only APFS can update-auto.

2577M x 1024 x 1024 = 2,702,180,352=2.7GB on mac.

macOSUpdCombo10.14.pkg is untouched with Q7-Update-installScript/installScript_1014.

The different size you have seen is apple's finder issue.

No, transparency is at default.  Iris Graphics 540 for my Skylake NUCi5SYH is natively supported in Mojave :).

Thanks @crazybirdy for your script.  It works to update Mojave on either apfs or HFS+ partition.  Updated both my legacy systems from DB9--->DB10 (GA-P55aUD3/apfs desktop, Dell XPSM1530/HFS+ notebook) with this method.  Note - App Store update does not appear automatically with Mojave on an HFS+ partition, hence need for script...

Yes, you can reuse the installer.pkg to update Mojave on another machine, as long as it is at the same starting point as the original machine eg update from DB9 to DB10.  I copied installer.pkg from /tmp/041-03373 to a USB thumb drive, then ran it on the second machine.  Don't forget to update dyld cache afterwards....

Thank you very much for your help all, it is greatly appreciated.

As my machine suffered from the "JPEG problem" in QuickLook and Preview, I needed to change the SMBIOS from iMac14,2 to iMacPro1,1 in clover.plist. Solved every issue in the new Finder Gallery view, QuickLook and Preview.app.

All in all a very round system, I'm very pleased. I have 0 additional kexts installed, everything works for me with clover alone, which I find mind-blowing. Except for SpeedStep, but OK. That's just a detail.

Happy hacking everybody!

Yeah the clean install of DP 10 went fine on my SkyLake rig and I'm doing another clean install on my IvyBridge right now.

 

Update:

All good on my IvyBridge as well.

Backlight display slider works native?

 

I was a little bit annoyed when I installed Mojave Beta 1 on my laptop and the brightness slider function broke.

And I decided to troubleshoot by first blocking the backlightinjector kext and its clover patch on Beta 10.

Lo and behold, the brightness slider works! NATIVE! Unbelievable!

 

Edit: Except still require PNLF ssdt for slider to appear. Stoked nonetheless..

Edit2: Work in High Sierra 10.13.6 without kext and clover patch as well
