hi

I have tried the two file nothing  different for me

Do you need xcpm_bootstrap © Pike R. Alpha patch to boot?

If that's the case you need a patch for unlocking the MSR 0xE2 register. 

I can't help you with this because that's way above my "noob" head but you might get some help from this thread: https://www.macos86.it/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=669&p=30954#p30954

Q:

Do i need to disable the two place ?

 

i need both “xcpm_bootstrap © Pike R. Alpha” & “npci=0x2000” to boot up

Do not use multiple config.plist files inside you Clover folder. Use only one config.plist provided by obus.

And @skyflying5 , HFSPlus.efi or VBoxHfs.efi, but not both at the same time

Yes.

Have you tried to contact Supermicro for a patch? If not do that.

Delete VBoxHfs.efi from your driver map and keep HFSPlus.exi.

And last if you running 10.14.5 you need to change kernel patch to _xcpm_pkg_scope_msrs_PMhart_10.14.5_beta.

My Hack don't boot with OpenCore 0.0.3:worried_anim:

 

OpenCore 0.0.1 boot OK.

 

What is wrong?

 

update1: I will try to clear NVRAM...

 

update2: solved - Some differences in the config.plist for OC 0.0.1 vs config.plist for OC 0.0.3 caused the startup issue

Use this. Just put in MLB, Serial and UUID.

If you have a SSDT-PM enable it in config and put SSDT into ACPI -> custom. 

Don't change anything else.

Thank you @obus
This is a great developer gift for all C422 users. I hope these changes will be maintained and evolved in subsequent releases of OpenCore.

Note: Couple beta macOS 10.15 plus beta OpenCore is too complicated for me. So, so far, I will stay on Clover + Catalina beta...

...hmm, Clover also in progress, v4964 ok for Catalina

@obus Did you figure out how to enable xcpm with OC? I haven't been able to do it so far, I might have to go back to Clover

Yup.

XCPM is working perfect on my rig with OC as-well as sleep and all other stuff.

I can't see your hardware in signature. Please add that to your profile and let me see.

So the new MacPro (7.1?) will have Intel Xeon W processors from 8 t0 28 cores.

I think this means that we have to change SMBIO's to MacPro later this fall.:drool:

The chipset will be different, c621 instead of c422. I'm very curious to see if Xeon Golds work on the MacOS.

Is there any official data from Intel yet?

 

Update: Oh, yes, all information is available:

Chipset https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/97338/intel-c621-chipset.html

CPU https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/193739/intel-xeon-w-3223-processor-16-5m-cache-3-50-ghz.html

       https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/codename/124664/cascade-lake.html

And ASUS MB for MacPro7,1 hackintosh https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/WS-C621E-SAGE/

:)

...but nothing about Cascade Lake for s2066. Is Socket 2066 discontinued?
