chrisf60526 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Hi all. I have an Asus TUF Gaming B550 Plus with a Ryzen 5600X. For the last week I have tried everything to make this work with no success. I have watched Brandon Yen's video on YT about building this on Windows. I have tried using my wifes MacBook Air and building it on OSX using OC Gen and non-OC Gen. I have tried using config.plists i found on Git. I have followed the OpenCore guide to a tee but can't really ever get to the 'Install Big Sur' boot screen. Anyone have any ideas on what to try? Thank you in advance!

Shaneee Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Did you add the AMD patches? If so did you modify them as per the ReadMe, https://github.com/AMD-OSX/AMD_Vanilla Also you'll need the SSDT_CPUR for B550 as the Dortania guide says. That's what you should follow, https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2770859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf60526 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Thanks. I'll try it again. I have a simliar setup to you and have followed your info in the process. I'll giv eit another try Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2770861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf60526 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 @Shaneee. Still having issues on this. I have logs from where it hangs (it doesnt get far) as well as my config (which mostly passed OC sanity check). Would it be worth it to attach it to see if anything is obvious?

Shaneee Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 The online Sanity Checker isn't upto date. Upload your config and I'll skim over it.

Cyberdevs Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 @chrisf60526 OC AuxiliaryTools has a sanity check feature that will help you fix lots of config issues you might wanna try it but of course @Shaneee is the human version of the sanity checker when it comes to AMD rigs with more accuracy than any tools 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2770895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf60526 Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 @Shaneee @Cyberdevs Thanks for the help. Much appreciated Here's a bit more detail including my EFI folder and the debug.txt that was written. My system is a Ryzen 5600X running on an Asus TUF GAMING B550-PLUS. In regards to the BIOS on the MB, I am not very sure what needs to be enabled/disabled. I followed the guide on Opencore but I never get far enough in the boot process to know if what i changed is actually working. In regards to Opencore, I have followed a bunch of guides. Since Monterey is new, I decided to go the Big Sur route. I have access to a Mac but i thought that this guide by Brandon yen would be good (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-Cm30I_DEw&t=472s). Seemed like an easy way to get it going without having to make a bootable installer. Really didnt work for me. Next I used a MacBook Air and did the Opencore way with the installer and MountEFI. I tried making my own config.plist and i thought i got it right but didnt get anywhere on the boot. Since then I have tried using Shannee's build from Git and I tied OC GenX as well. I'm in the IT biz so I know my way around but the guides I feel are a bit hard to follow. Let me know how I can get this going and I really appreciate the help! I have spent a lot of time on this.

Shaneee Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Give this folder a go. Just replace the full folder. Video guides are never the best, Dortania is the only guide you should follow, same goes for "generator" apps to make the config. This EFI is based off of my X570-F EFI I have shared but modified for your system.

I went in a turned off a bunch of stuff in the BIOS and I fianlly booted in to the recovery! I'm going to go find a drive to isntall it on so I don't scrap my Win10 drive (just in case) and report back. The recovery came up in Russian which i can work around. It also picked up my Magic Mouse and Keyboard which was pretty awesome. I'll report back this evening.

etorix Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The ACPI errors indicate issues with SSDT-EC and CPUR. Can you dump and post the ACPI tables (SysReport folder) and bootlog? (Use OpenCore DEBUG with the settings Misc>Debug>SysReport:true, Target:67.)

chrisf60526 Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 Ok guys. I was able to get Big Sur installed, As soon as i get to the language section, my mouse and keybaord stop working. I was able to use them when i was installing but they are unresponsive right now. I have tried a wired keyboard and I also have a magic mouse and magic keyboard. XCPI is off in the BIOS and off int the config.plist as well. Guide says USB should work out of box. Any ideas?

Shaneee Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Swap the EC SSDT I used with the compiled version in the Dortania guide. USB should work OOB yes. It's possible that not all ports will work until they are mapped though. Try simply changing the port you are using.

chrisf60526 Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 OK. The one on Dortania is called SSDT-EC-USBX-DESKTOP.aml and yours is called SSDT-EC-USBX.aml. I copied the one on Dortanina and renamed to what you had. Anything i need to do in properedit or just copy over, rename and boot?

Shaneee Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 If you've renamed it then nothing else is needed. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2771009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf60526 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Thanks all. Looks like I am up and running. It looked like the USB AML that Shaneee suggested worked. I installed Big Sur and did an upgrade to Monterey with no issues. Here is what worked and what still needs work: Bluetooth - Not working . I am sure I can google it to find out why Front USB ports - My case has two USB ports on the front that don't seem to be recognized. Not a huge deal as I can use the ones in the back. This may have been my issue in the first place. The back USB ports work though. Sound - Works out of the box. I have a Dell USB sound bar plugged in via USB and it kicked right in I'll move onto the Post Install part now. Thanks again for the help all! Looks great so far.. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2771073 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf60526 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Ok guys. Looked around for a few hours and my Bluetooth is not working. Do i need to use the IntelBluetooth kext and/or Airpotitlwm kexts as well?

Shaneee Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 It might help yes as the BT uses USB to communicate. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2771080 Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisf60526 Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Bit of an update. This appears to be an issue with Monterey. I re loaded BS and the Bluetooth works fine with my old BT 4.0. Monterey fails to work with BT on this board. I have been doing some digging and notced I am not the only one having the issue. Apparantly, Monterey changed the BT stack. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/how-to-bluetooth-5-0-usb-dongle-guide.287115/page-8 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/349499-ryzen-5600x-and-asus-tuf-550-assistance-requested/#findComment-2771092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
