MorenoAv Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I know @antuneddu, but I'm lazy and is easier to install a program than, booting into Windows 11 and renaming "C" drive, and then booting again in macOS Monterey... But I'll have to do that if uninstalling remove the effects, and the drive appear in desktop... Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 5T33Z0 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 @antuneddu Where did you rename it? Mine is a Win 10 disk and I cannot rename it in FInder nor Desktop. In Disk Utility it's just called disk2S3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anto65 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 If that's not too much work for you, reboot into Windows rename and go back to macos 😂 I renamed the disks from Windows, I have minitool partition Wizard installed, not tried directly with Windows 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorenoAv Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 (edited) And I'm back and renamed my Windows 11 with a . before windows and ... pufff the disk icon on my desktop is gone... Thanks @antuneddu, @Alex HQuest, that was the first to suggest renaming Windows with a dot before...

surenmunoo Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Adding a dot in front of Windows in Win 10 worked for me, no more disk icon on the desktop, Thanks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageAUS Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Sorry but it does not work. Downloaded this HUGE ~11 GB file, but when I run it on my VMware Workstation Pro 16.1.x macOS Monterey older Beta VM, running on top of Windows 10 64-bit, I am not getting anything useful, I am afraid. It shows something that is 35 MB (?? Where did the 11 GB go?) in size, installs that -- whatever it is, then stops saying installation has been successful (green checkmark shows). But then NO new Beta version gets installed, or offered? Any ideas what is wrong here, and why? You might get help on the VMware thread, here it is off topic.

Set it to j160 and reboot and you'll get the update notification. While it's downloading set it back to j185f. Simple as that. Thanks so much AudioGod and Shaneee!-after changing SecureBootModel to j160 voila!-update finally showed up for me -downloading right now and have changed SecureBootModel back to j137-SMBIOS -iMacPro1,1 Was about to download full InstallPackage but this worked!

Before that I was preventing my Windows drives from mounting at startup but this is a much nicer solution. Thank You Buddy. 👌 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 5T33Z0 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 So I used Monterey for like 2 days now. Mostly to install all my Audio Software and plugins on it and at this stage it feels pretty stable already. Some Plugins and Apps don't work but most of it does. I feel that with Big Sur it took a lot longer until it was useable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that with Big Sur it took a lot longer until it was useable. This is kind of expected. Big Sur introduced a lot of changes to make it (internally) more aligned with the iOS/iPadOS world, and to include the new M1 processors, whereas Monterey Jack cheese is just a bunch of updates on top of this new foundation. I'm curious to find out how long will the Intel processors be an option for the Mac line of products. Not only to know how long will the Hackintosh thrill with newest stuff, but to find out which other high performance options not AMD, Intel and Nvidia based we have available for both CPU and GPUs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 5T33Z0 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 My guess is about 3 to 5 years after the last line of Macs with Intel CPUs have been released until X86 Support will be dropped. Because you can't ship a 2.300 $ iMac in the fall 2021 (hypothecially) and in 2022 you can no longer install the latest macOS. That would be a bad look for Apple as far as product and customer support is concerned. For me, there's no alternative to macOS as far as work is concerned since I work in the field of audio. Windows is horrible for that. So unless some company get's into ARM for the PC consumer market and somehow these chips can run macOS (which is unlikely) I will probably have no other choice than buying an Apple machine – which is a frightening idea for me really.

simmel Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I managed to get beta 6 show up with CLOVER. This is what I did: 1) updated CLOVER from 5138 to 5139 (no effect) 2) switched from VirtualSMC to FakeSMC with SMCHelper.efi (no effect) 3) changed SMBIOS from iMacPro1,1 to iMac17,1 and deleted NVRAM (update shows up) Hope this helps! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see and thank you for the info!! Unfortunately I’d like to make it work on OC 😕 Slice provided a perfect solution. The problem for you is that OC does not yet allow sufficient configurability of SMBIOS. Since you have access to the OC developers on this forum, you might suggest a future improvement by adding Board ID to the PlatformInfo/Generic section of the config.plist. In the meantime, I have both Clover and OC in my EFI and use the boot selector that can be installed to BOOT in EFI to allow me to switch between Clover and OC at will. (The boot selector can be installed as part of the Clover installer package.) It's amazing how far bootloaders have come in the OSx86 community. Since Clover has been around longer than OC, it has more features. I understand the allure of OC and I use it more often than Clover myself but OC still has a ways to go before it matches Clover in configurability. Props to Slice. It's sad to see him have to pitch Clover like it was 3-day old fish. It's not. To Mods: Sorry that this was off-topic. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Revenger1 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 It is possible to set board-id if you feel like setting every other field (other than generic) up. Would have to check the docs on that though. Wouldn't it be possible to just use a Broadwell SMBIOS for example? Not quite sure what consequences that would have though.

Guest 5T33Z0 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) @ombra88 In OpenCore's sample-custom.plist there's a field for the Board ID called "BoardProduct" under PlatformInfo > SMBIOS which is the equivalent to BoardID in Clover.
