I am using latest version of opencore on an AMD Ryzen build. Everything else is working perfectly with no issues whatsoever. I have OSX Ctatalina 10.5.3 installed on an SSD with Recovery partition created by the installer on the same drive. 10.5.3 was an upgrade over originaly installed 10.5.2. I couldn't boot to recovery prior nor after the 10.5.3 update and update itself went without a hitch also upgarding Recovery partition to 10.5.3. I am using iMacPro 1,1 profile. Since I saw on the AMD OSX discord channel that there are quite a few people having the same issue but not getting any answers I thought in asking here. Appreciate any help I can get. The message I get is: Error allocating 0x7b40 pages at 0x000000005859000 alloc type 2 Couldn't allocate runtime area. Hardware configuration is (if it matters): Asrock B450M Ryzen 3500X Radeon RX580 RAM 16GB 2600 MHz Samsung Evo 850 Try what @telepati says. Insure you're using hfsplus.efi installed instead of vbox Memoryallocation--> Here 17 minutes ago, telepati said: Use memoryallocation.kext. Google it. Hi @telepati I's memoryallocation.efi instead of kext. 5 minutes ago, Slice said: Sorry but google keep silence. There are many keywords like memory, allocation and kext on different sites.

I tried the kernel patch before and now tested the kext (while disabling the patch) however no luck. I can boot successfully however Sleep/restart/shutdown will only fail into safe bios.

I am using HFSPlus.efi. MemoryAllocation.efi did nothing as did ProvideCustomSlide. DevirtualiseMmio prevents system from booting and I had to shange back.

canyondust Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Now that TakeOffDelay has been implemented, is it possible to implement a logic where Timeout can be set to a value if ShowPicker is false, but is cancelled (reverts to 0/Off) if the ShowPicker hot key (opt/esc) is detected? fantastic work BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might need the changes pushed by vit9696 last night, to add TakeOffDelay so you can set 1-2sec to allow OC to accept the hot keys with timeout=0?

Just completed checking all of the patches, it's amazing how many new things i learned and improved upon. The more you learn, the more you realize that you know nothing... I believe now all my hacks should reach perfection in a couple of days (at the very least the ACPI side). Thank you all ! Respect, Sniki 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Ale1 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Hi, today I've just updated to OpenCore 0.5.5, no issues so far. Excellent Bootloader. My hardware is down below (see signature) and while I was reading though the UEFI section of the Configuration.pdf file I found something familiar with my ASUS motherboard: As @vit9696 described here, he mentions double boot entry problems when dealing with namespaces. "However, some firmwares do their own boot option scanning upon startup by checking file presence on the available disks. Quite often this scanning includes non-standard locations, such as Windows Bootloader paths. Normally it is not an issue, but some firmwares, ASUS firmwares on APTIO V in particular, have bugs. For them scanning is implemented improperly, and firmware preferences may get accidentally corrupted due to BootOrder entry duplication (each option will be added twice) making it impossible to boot without cleaning NVRAM" Now, I would like to have some clarification on the topic, I'm currently using these Quirks under UEFI > Quirks: •RequestBootVarFallback ON I suppose that this quirk enhances security as described here: "By redirecting Boot prefixed variables to a separate GUID namespace we achieve multiple goals (goals_list_after)" I need confirmation that this happens when RequestBootVarFallback is enabled. Thanks Also, this quirks implements security fixes by doing this, is it? "redirects some Boot prefixed variables to EFI_GLOBAL_VARIABLE_GUID (and requires the other quirk down below to be enabled)" The other quirk I need to have more clarification on, is this: •RequestBootVarRouting ON "To trigger the bug one should have some valid boot options (e.g. OpenCore) and then install Windows with RequestBootVarRouting enabled." My question is: if my scope is Not to trigger the bug, I should reboot my pc at least once with both quirks disabled (RequestBootVarFallback OFF +RequestBootVarRouting OFF)? Thanks in advance.

vit9696 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Regarding picker issues, newly added BuiltinTextRenderer may improve the situation (it also supports HiDPI). @1Ale1, RequestBootVarFallback reduces the chance to run into the entry duplication bug. I.e. you may likely not face the bug when you have RequestBootVarFallback enabled if your motherboard is faulty. The bug may still happen even when RequestBootVarFallback is enabled, however. Even if you have both quirks (RequestBootVarRouting and RequestBootVarFallback) disabled you may still trigger the bug, but indeed with both of them off there is little chance it will happen. However, disabling RequestBootVarRouting will break functionality like switching between operating systems, remembering the default operating system, authenticated restart, unattended update installation, and several others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
