Sorry @PMheart , but I think this fragment has to be corrected:

  

call in XNU kernel. Normally it is only the value of \texttt{EAX} that needs to be taken care of,

 which represents the exact CPUID. And the remainders are to be left as zeroes.

For instance, \texttt{A9 06 03 00} stands for CPUID \texttt{0x0306A9} (Ivy Bridge).

A good example can be found at

\href{https://github.com/acidanthera/bugtracker/issues/365}{acidanthera/bugtracker\#365}.

(See \texttt{Special NOTES for Haswell+ low-end})

  

I used to boot my Intel Pentium Haswell with fake CPUID Ivy Bridge 0x0306A0

Hello,

 

Sorry, I didn't quite catch that. Could you please point out the changes that I am supposed to handle? Thanks!

"For instance, \texttt{A0 06 03 00} stands for CPUID \texttt{0x0306A0} (Ivy Bridge)" , thou I'm not using fake CPUID in favor of cpu family kernel patch(VDA decoding), it was the only fake CPUID I was able to boot my hackintosh

does not even look like a CFG Lock (or any MSR stuff), more like dereferencing null pointer. Perhaps you should consider looking somewhere else.

Thanks @vit9696

Do you have any suggestions/hint on where the problem could be ?

I checked configuration.pdf many times but can't find any reference related to this problem

 

Any idea ?

I had the OC folder attached as well,

Let me know if you need more files/logs for troubleshooting.

I did not try re enabling sip as. it does not bother me being disabled

 

I ran SIP disabled for 3 years, and decided to enable it when I moved to OC. The only difference has been theoretical

[D-an-W]

Would anyone know the decimal number to use to in Scan Policy to enable USB scanning but not show EFI please? 

 

I currently have it set at 0 which works but also shows EFI, I also tried 5,177,603 but that didn't show any more and also gave an error before the boot selector screen.

Can you please share your OC, mine does nothing

all i did was use opencore configurator made a new config disabled anything that was default in all option menus.

 

in smbios i just populated the generic section with the info i needed changed like serial and had to put a mac identifier if not OC defaults to mac pro 6,1 i selected all the check mark options across the bottom  and set auto to auto instead of create. the other thing it needed was applepolicy checked like i explained in my previous post. i am not using any drivers or kexts just config with the smbios info i want changed deleted everything else oh and i set the gui text mode stuff for the bootpicker

Try 3080451

(default + USB)

Or 2818307

(default + USB - SCSI) Do people still use SCSI? (Really?)

Ok, I used DEBUG version, maybe that exasperated the problem

THANKS

 

edit:

I'm a lazy SOAB, could you please give me your OC without serial etc.

when I get home I guess.

that's funny because the only thing my config is being used for is the serial number LOL. my SMC was replaced and it came with no serial. that's the reason I attempted to try OC on the iMac. apple serializer is too old to run on my machine to fix the issue and I already closed the machine so can't dump then edit and re upload the rom. unless serializer can be modified to run on new systems.

All good, sorted it out myself, thanks for your help

Stick with Clover for time being.

Neither works, just gives an error "OCS: Failed to parse real field of type 1" on the screen before the boot picker and no additional entries.

 

Will stick to 0 for now.

You should not be using any OpenCore configurator right now, none of them work properly for creating a proper config. Plain and simple.

Did you read it???

We using it on Apple, no real need for ANY config

[Hackintosh Tech]

Anyone had issues with boot up times with Opencore, on the Left is Clover and the right is opencore. the difference is annoying.

Interesting. I used the old pdf. I’ll double check that the bitmap hasn’t changed.

Try 3080963 (default + usb + hfs)

Sorry for my stupidness. I still didn't get it. Might you want to make this patch a quirk or?

[mhaeuser]

@D-an-W as the error says, you end up having a *real* field, so remove punctuation

Good morning @Download-Fritz I assume that means the commas I put in there to make it look the same as before I changed it?  For example I entered 5,177,603 and should have maybe just typed 5177603?

Sorry for not being precise, I meant there's probably misprint Ivy Bridge is 0x0306A0 not 0x0306A9. Sorry for the confusion I made.

BINGO!

 

3080963 did the trick along with the tip from @Download-Fritz as I was wrongly add the commas but should just have let Xcode do that for me.

 

Many thanks @canyondust & @Download-Fritz

ok here it goes

EFI.zip

 

looks like you have to re bless OC after apple updates. 

sudo bless --device /dev/disk0s1 --file BOOTx64.efi --setBoot

Wow.

Why does OC work on iMac10,1 but don't on my Hackintosh
