CiTroNaK Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) I can confirm, that it works with MacMini6,2 and iMac13,2 with only iGPU. Thank you very much, IronManJFF! Edited May 5, 2020 by CiTroNaK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronManJFF Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) Yes it is the Graphical Boot Picker that will replace Bootliquor. OC 0.5.7 is very stable on our board, no rush. Also take note that the changelog notes everything, but not everything is applicable to our board and firmware. I'll go thru the documentation (cause the devil is always in the details).

IronManJFF Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) Rude and Crude script to migrate to OC 0.5.8 from 0.5.7 DONT RENAME THE FOLDER OR SCRIPT TAKE A BACKUP of YOUR EFI FOLDER BEFORE RUNNING THIS ...DON'T BE STUPID I WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST TO RUN IT AGAINST A COPY OF YOUR EFI FOLDER TO TEST IT FIRST DID I TOLD YOU NOT TO RUN IT AGAINST YOUR LIVE EFI ! When it is all done .. copy the EFI folder to a USB thumb drive to test it first before apply to your main drive Boot with F12 .. and select the thumb drive from the motherboard native boot picker, it will force OC to load from the thumb drive Watch out for any error message Once booted, you can verify that you are indeed under 0.5.8 by using Terminal nvram 4D1FDA02-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B30102:opencore-version should answer REL-058-2020-05-04 If all is good then you can copy the EFI folder to the main drive OC_0.5.7_to_0.5.8_Migration.zip Edited May 6, 2020 by IronManJFF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiTroNaK Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 IronManJFF, thank you. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. I swear I didn't do anything except stated in your guides. Here are some outputs, if you find a time to look at it. When I tried to boot from a USB stick with upgraded OC. CS: No schema for ProtectCsmRegion at 8 index! OCS: No schema for ShrinkMemoryMap at 12 index! And attached migrate_output.txt file from Migrate.sh. Thank you. migrate_output.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) Thanks for reporting .. I see now .. these were renamed in the 'official 0.5.7 Release' which came after the first Migration Kit...but i had personally moved to 0.5.7 official.. Adjusting the script ... hold on...Done.

IronManJFF Posted May 6, 2020 Author Share Posted May 6, 2020 Another rude and crude script ... OpenCore come with Audio support for multiple languages that takes a lot of space when you add them all up. I had a problem where my EFI partition was totally filled up so I came up with this. The attached script will remove all additional languages besides English ... the script is easy to edit if for instance you want to keep 1 or 2 languages besides English.

Re-download Unsuccessful :-( Halting on critical error Could you please upload the whole EFI folder with a new template config file? It could be easier to copy/paste the mandatory fields (like in the first guide from you in this topic) to the config file even thou I like the migration script.

randallq Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 IronManJFF, thanks for all your work. I've tried the migration and seem to be partially successful. I get the boot picker screen. My regular Mac OS 10.14.6 gets stuck on the white apple logo screen, no progress bar. Windows loads OK. Recovery MacOS 10.14.6 loads ok. I've turned on debug and got the log from terminal (attached). Any help would be appreciated. Terminal Saved Output Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) Wanted to do more work on it but because I am lacking the time.. I am posting it as it is right now MigrationKit with 0.5.8 What has not changed : The firmware file is the same (no need to flash if you are already on OpenCore) Biggest visible change : I splitted the template in 2 files config_template.plist PlatformInfo.plist Biggest invisible change : APFS support built-in OpenCore, Graphical BootPicker now honors timeout attribute in Config.plist How to use Fill PlatformInfo.plist according to the #1 post (optionally you can save as MyPlatformInfo.plist the script will work with it if it finds it) Run CreateConfig.sh (this will merge the config_template.plist with the Platform Info) to create the config.plist in the EFI folder Optionaly edit and run OCAudioCleanup.sh Optionaly but Recommended :Put the EFI Folder on a thumb drive and test it (Boot with F12, select UEFI:DeviceNameOfThumbDrive). Once booted, you can verify that you are indeed under 0.5.8 by using Terminal nvram 4D1FDA02-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B30102:opencore-version should answer REL-058-2020-05-04 All good, copy the EFI folder over to the main drive If you customized some parts from 0.5.7 ( boot-args ), you will have to redo them. Thanks to CiTroNak for all the testing Get the kit Details about with additional work I would like to do on it (but lacking time) : Auto-detect if run from OpenCore, if so retreive PlatformInfo from nvram or current config.plist Post-config options Boot picker prefs Customized boot-args Auto-detect and adjust stuff iMac13,2 vs MacMini6,2 SysDef, GPU Cuteness : Better interface FileVault2 disk encryption (haven't tested but pretty sure not working at this stage of the config_template.plist) Credits to the OpenCore Dev Team, I merely assembled the stuff.

CiTroNaK Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Does anyone know please, it is possible to boot up from SSD M.2 in PCIe 3.0 (NVMe)? Does the board support it? Sorry for these stupid questions and thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronManJFF Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) I had asked the same question before and never got a real answer. Maybe no one attempted it. Here is what I know Bandwidth is shared between the 2 PCIe 3.0 slots (the long ones), so if both are in use you will be halving the bandwidth available to the GPU even if you'd be using less then 8 lanes. The short slots are PCIe 2.0 OpenCore itself can scan for OS to load on a NVMe device (may have to tweak config.plist) Here is what I think The board might not be able to load OpenCore from a NVMe Device without a firmware modification (assuming we could find a UEFI driver to bake into it..which might be doubtful) If you load OpenCore from a SATA device, then I think it will work Edited May 12, 2020 by IronManJFF Correcting typos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiTroNaK Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Thanks, IronManJFF. I will stick with classic SSD. Luckily I don't need to have a better speed performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casm101 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Updated to 10.15.5 earlier, took a while, but worked perfectly! I updated because i was having a problem where system sounds (such as screenshots and emptying the bin) would cut off app audio or stop a video in netflix, youtube, etc, and wouldn't return unless I forced it. But even after the update, the problem remains... Has anyone else had that problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
