I've tested the installer on three systems already (2 hacks Skylake and AlderLake and 1 2017 iMac) and the results were the same on all of them Oh man that doesn't give me much hope but I am going to plod on, maybe I'll get lucky. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoMpIs Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) The lenovo 520 of my signature works, but without audio and wiffi if I don't remove the wiffi drivers, as soon as it connects to the network the laptop turns off 😄 Edited June 7, 2022 by PoMpIs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens both in Monterey as well as during the Ventura installation. Anyone else gets this issue? sounds like @aben has the same issue? Clean install of macOS Monterey was one of the tests carried out and yes; macOS 12 installer logs were showing the exact same error as macOS 13 installer (during the final hand-off/creation of installer preboot volume) when the quirk was disabled; proper NVRAM functionality is a requirement for the installers, at least for the initial phase prior to first restart initiated by installer.

I even can't install it on a 2017 iMac it ends up with the damaged installer error. I'm re-downloading the installer right now. I used the .pkg installer from this post https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/351969-pre-release-macos-ventura/?do=findComment&comment=2783763 I ran it which created the usual macOS Installer app. I opened that and installed to an empty partition. But I had to disable "AvoidRuntimeDefrag" so the installer would start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 @5T33Z0 Thanks for the reply, i downloaded the same file and did the same thing but for some reason the installer is damaged it doesn't even work when i run the installer app from the applications folder on the iMac.

Try with this one, I created it with munki script https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CMZeGaJkZ6JFgT5c6qqqOmze4DRq1D6s/view Also @Cyberdevs if you're afraid your installer is damaged, check the signature of the SharedSupport.dmg and compare that with the ones you find here https://github.com/notpeter/apple-installer-checksums 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 @aben Thanks for the tip, I just finished downloading the installer and i'm making the USB disk as we speak, I'll give the new installer a try and post the results. As I mentioned above the installer was giving the same error on a legitimate Apple iMac so it must have been actually damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing similar reports from Mac users (both Intel and M1) over at Reddit reporting buggy behavior with the installer (bootable and .app) as well; most likely culprit: broken file permissions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked out the box. But you can try Try agdpmod=pikera boot-arg @PoMpIs I checked my T530 again. AvoidRuntimeDefrag is a must to boot Ivy Bridge systems. But with it acive, the installer won't start, so no chance for the T430/T530 unless the Quirk is fixed. Edited June 8, 2022 by 5T33Z0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hectorsky Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 I managed to boot installer from clear Installer on older 6th gen cpu. Thing is fresh installation is not possible cause of outdated OpenCore Mac database with old firmware dates. someone need extracted updated firmwares from installer and assign these to new OpenCore build.

Thanks for the explanation, now when I think of it, the computer hangs during installation of Venture, and during cloning of APFS filesystem of macOS. Hopefully we can get a proper fix for the quirks soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
