Thanks Ant, you beat me to the response

Did you start from a copy of "Install OS X El Capitan" earlier than 10.11.5?
Did you perform an upgrade to 10.11.6?
It's possible that a manual (or automatic) update has occurred that has overwritten the boot.efi files with the Apple versions. This makes the OS partition unbootable. The EFI firmware will then look for the first/other partition that it can boot, in your case this might be the Recovery HD.
You can tell by the size of the boot.efi files, Apple versions are around 600Kb, the Pike versions are around 300Kb.

I have always been eyeing on grabbing a 1,1 since the patch released. Had a chance to get one for 90$ last month and decided to go with it. With 8G FBDIMM, HD 7950 and Usb 3 card on my way, I thought I would make this baby into one killer main machine for me, transitioning from an iMac 7,1 base line config.
But I was so wrong.
I decided to start from a generic 1,1 config with only 7300GT in PCIe slot and nothing plugged in. Patched EFI files in both Core services and i386 let this machine booted from my SSD to a freshly installed El Capitan desktop. How excited I was. However, after trying to signing into Apple ID, the machine just simply went into black screen. It is stuck in a Kernel Panic Loop with its optical drive painstakingly ticking.
OK, I thought, maybe I should not input Apple ID. I logged off and, 1 minute later when watching a youtube video(the machine was completely fine), it did it again.
So it is the graphics card? Nope. Plugged in a HD 7950 (unflashed) and boom, full graphic acceleration. Amid my enjoyment the damn thing went into black screen and optical ticking fest again.
Plugged in my new USB 3 card (which works OOB), the machine behaves the same. Different Ram stick and SATA port configuration did not change it either.
Ran out and spend another 90$ for a GTX 970, with new nvidia driver in 15G1510 works flawlessly. About 10 minute later, it went into black screen. Once again I patched the recovery partition EFI and nothing changed.
On last try. Flashed it to an 2,1 from Snow Leopard and after that, magically, it can only stay on El Capitan desktop, doing nothing for a consistent 1 minute before going into black screen and optical drive ticking. It would at least stay on desktop for an inconsistent 5-30 min before flashing.
Writing from the same machine on Snow Leopard on which this machine flies on. How bad I want it to run El Cap smoothly though!

I have always been eyeing on grabbing a 1,1 since the patch released. Had a chance to get one for 90$ last month and decided to go with it. With 8G FBDIMM, HD 7950 and Usb 3 card on my way, I thought I would make this baby into one killer main machine for me, transitioning from an iMac 7,1 base line config.
But I was so wrong.
I decided to start from a generic 1,1 config with only 7300GT in PCIe slot and nothing plugged in. Patched EFI files in both Core services and i386 let this machine booted from my SSD to a freshly installed El Capitan desktop. How excited I was. However, after trying to signing into Apple ID, the machine just simply went into black screen. It is stuck in a Kernel Panic Loop with its optical drive painstakingly ticking.
OK, I thought, maybe I should not input Apple ID. I logged off and, 1 minute later when watching a youtube video(the machine was completely fine), it did it again.
So it is the graphics card? Nope. Plugged in a HD 7950 (unflashed) and boom, full graphic acceleration. Amid my enjoyment the damn thing went into black screen and optical ticking fest again.
Plugged in my new USB 3 card (which works OOB), the machine behaves the same. Different Ram stick and SATA port configuration did not change it either.
Ran out and spend another 90$ for a GTX 970, with new nvidia driver in 15G1510 works flawlessly. About 10 minute later, it went into black screen. Once again I patched the recovery partition EFI and nothing changed.
On last try. Flashed it to an 2,1 from Snow Leopard and after that, magically, it can only stay on El Capitan desktop, doing nothing for a consistent 1 minute before going into black screen and optical drive ticking. It would at least stay on desktop for an inconsistent 5-30 min before flashing.
Writing from the same machine on Snow Leopard on which this machine flies on. How bad I want it to run El Cap smoothly though!

I would be very appreciated if any of you generous people can help me to harness this beast. Thanks in advance.
Hello Dean Yu,
This is a well known and often reported issue. The problem is your RAM. You should remove your 512Mb RAM cards, sell them if you can, or throw them in a drawer or the trash. All users that report these random but frequent crashes have the original 512Mb memory sticks. We advise purchasing 2Gb or 4Gb memory sticks to replace them (in pairs). Buy as much as you can afford.
Even worse news for you, just recently we've had a few reports on this thread of users experiencing the same random crashes with 1Gb memory (but no 512Mb sticks). It may be a double whammy for you. I would strongly advise replacing all your RAM.
We are not sure why, we can only speculate. My theory is that Apple's supported machines have "moved on", and they all contain a minimum of 2Gb RAM modules, therefore the newer OSes can assume contiguous memory boundaries at the 2Gb mark. Crashes will occur if the memory management routines get strange responses from the hardware.
ALL users that follow the advice to replace the RAM with 2Gb or higher capacity modules report back that their systems have become stable (no more crashes)
Thanks Ant, you beat me to the response

Did you start from a copy of "Install OS X El Capitan" earlier than 10.11.5?
Did you perform an upgrade to 10.11.6?
It's possible that a manual (or automatic) update has occurred that has overwritten the boot.efi files with the Apple versions. This makes the OS partition unbootable. The EFI firmware will then look for the first/other partition that it can boot, in your case this might be the Recovery HD.
You can tell by the size of the boot.efi files, Apple versions are around 600Kb, the Pike versions are around 300Kb.
Thank you for your forbearance but I think I may have found the problem... have a look at what I found when I pulled the thing apart. I then stuck the USB v12 back in and let it run to completion (ignoring the forgetting plug the video card power in/CPU A temp sensor), and all looks well. For reference, I completely filled one of the little Dyson vacuums with the stuff out of the Mac Pro, and my son will get a much lighter machine back...
The v14 also probably worked but was messed up by the internal state of the device,
thanks again,
Chris M

Annoyingly, it's done it again, although the fans aren't running at full tilt.Thanks Ant, you beat me to the response

Yes, I'm running 10.11.3 Install OS X El Capitan, and have just allowed Software Update to run with the latest version of El Cap, so that'd be 10.11.6. So that'd be the boot.efi file being overwritten?
OK, the final score on this is that v12 and Boot64 did the business, and v14 failed three times (I ran out of patience then...). The failure mode was predictable. with the Mac starting up with the Installer, running so far, rebooting, trying to load something then defaulting back to the Recovery Screen. In v12, it would get from the white screen with grey logo and progress bar to about halfway along the bar, restart the progress bar up to about halfway and then start the OS X install screen. V14 would never get to that Install screen.
However, the result is still excellent, and thanks to your work another MP is about to live again,
Chris M
Yes, if you are not also running CapitanPikeFix or Boot64...
You can fix that situation by manually replacing the boot.efi files
Unfortunately, 2x2 GB FB Dimm is not helping.
Same symptom (or a bit worse? it rebooted into Snow Leo right after I logged in.)
(With 7300 GT)
BTW, the machine does not want to boot up with one dimm in each riser card.

RAM must be installed in pairs. There is a diagram on the inside of the removable side-panel, or take a look at the Apple web site. This page implies a shipping configuration of one module installed on each daughter card, but then moved to be pairs as you add more. Personally I've never seen that configuration, I've always seen a pair of modules on one card (top, slots 1 & 2) https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205043.
When you fit RAM, start the machine up first time with the side panel removed. Check the daughter cards for illuminated red LEDs. None is good, but if you see red that's bad. Make a mental note of the LED position, pull the card, take a close look at the silk-screen printing on the card it should indicate which module it doesn't like. Eject, refit firmly, refit the daughter card and try again.
If an LED stays on, shutdown, pull the card, eject a pair of modules including the one under investigation, swap their positions, refit firmly both modules into their swapped slots, refit the card and try again.
If an LED stays on, did it move to indicate the new location? If so you probably have a faulty module.
If an LED stays on, but it's the same location there is probably something wrong with the daughter card (a broken solder joint, or broken trace). Try swapping the daughter card positions, and move the RAM modules accordingly...
P.S. I've never tried running my machine with Yosemite/El Capitan with anything less than 8Gb of RAM. I will have a rummage and see if I can find a couple of 2Gb modules and try it this weekend if I get the chance (just to rule out total capacity as a potential issue).
Taking a closer look at the crash logs, the first one you reported (same log shown twice) panicked with a general protection error. This is typical of the 512Mb issue.
The second log you posted panicked with a page fault, which is more typical of a software issue.
Have you still got both graphics cards fitted? If so try removing the 7300.
In my experience, Mac OS X NVidia drivers have never been very good at supporting two cards with different chipsets (and therefore needing to load different kernel extension). If you ever intend to use a pair of gfx cards and run them in SLI/Crossfire (whatever the name of binding a pair is !), the cards are usually from the same family and therefore only one set of kexts needs to be loaded.

Unfortunately I no longer have either HD 7950 and GTX 970 with me ATM. (They devoted themselves into the glorious crypto currency mining master race
) I am running on SL/El Cap dual partition right now so I do need something for my boot screen& running snow Leo as my primary OS on the MP.This is my riser card LED readout with 2x2GB FB-5300 DIMMs in slot 1&2 on the upper riser. They work fine in Snow Leopard, yet the cpu push&pull fans spin at a pretty crazy 1400 rpm when having a medium load (YouTube VP9 1080p60), and the riser temps are at about 70 celsius (read from iStat). Not so sure about the reason why the fans ramp up though.
Thank you for your help and support thus far.
p.s. Another restart with only 7300GT (Web Driver still present) and the machine again auto restarted into Snow Leopard and reported page fault. Is this problem hardware related after all? Should I uninstall the driver and take the HD 7950 back to test it? What do you think?

Do those LEDs stay on? They should not remain illuminated.
I can't remember if you said you had already tried this (and I'm too lazy to go check!), have you performed an SMC reset? If not search this thread, a few pages back some users had weirdness, and they tried an SMC reset which fixed things.
Personally, I would try a different gfx card if you can...
LED does not stay on. I don't think they are error codes.
SMC and PRAM has been reseted again and guess what--no luck.
One notable thing is the fans ramp up (to about 1500rpm) during starting up in El Capitan.
What else, the crash report again mentioned general protection.......

Hello Dean,
Sorry, I'm running out things to suggest.
If the LEDs turn off, then that is good.
To my eye, it still looks like a memory issue.
The last recommendation I can give is disconnect any and all external peripherals except mouse and Keyboard, only use one gfx card (preferably not the 7300GT), try again...
Just like to send big thank you to all the people involved making this reality. I have been holding for over a year due to no spare time but finally decided to install it, it was a breeze. After updating to 10.11.6 I had to unlock again and replace boot.efi again.
Hello Chris,
I'm glad to hear you got your machine upgraded.
If you are still reading this, I'm curious to see if I can replicate your issue with pikify v14. Can you please tell me:
- Your disk configuration
- Number of disks
- Name of disks
- Whether a copy of Mac OS X is installed, and the version
- Which disk was the target for El Capitan
- Were you doing an in-place upgrade, or did you have a blank volume to install El Capitan onto?
- Can you sketch out the v14 steps you followed?
- Was there any error messages?
Wow.
I was testing on a different machine (another generic 1,1 with 5150s flashed to 2,1 with 2 sticks of 2GB FBdimm inside) and I thought, what about putting the other 4sticks of apple 1GB ran into the machine so that I can reach 8GB?
Put the stick onto the riser and boom, the machine fires up. It did not crash even with the 7300GT installed! I am impressed.
I dump the HD 7950 into the PCIe slot and fires the thing up, ran Geekbench Cpu, Memory and OpenCl compute and the thing passed in flying colour. Unigine Heaven on this thing also gains respectable result.
So my example is here. For a generic MP 1,1 QC 2.66 (flashed to 2,1), having yourself at least 8GB of ram is probably a good idea.

Hi! I did 10.9 / 10.10 flawlessly and now wanted to do El Capitan.
But when I installed it, the refresh rate was low and there was some longer loading, lags and bugs. Everything looks in place though.
What I've got:
-a flashed 5770 with a VGA adapor for boot screen
-a GTX670 that is working great on Yosemite (no boot screen though)
-8gb of ram of 2gb sticks (I've removed the others 1gb and 512mb)
-a 4K screen... so I need el capitan for easy scaling
What I've tried so far:
-Two different version of el capitan from two different computers.
-Reset PRAM/NVRAM SMC
-Reboot on yosemite, everything works at 60hz no lags.
-Installing it from taget mode with my macbook pro, then manually replace boot.efi files
-Installing it from USB and then manually replace boot.efi files on yosemite partition.
-Downgrade/upgrade firmware Mac Pro 1.1 / 2.1
I'm kind of out of ideas
I've ordered 6X2gb sticks to get my 12gb and install it directly but I'm sure it has nothing to do with it.
If you have an idea, it would be super appreciated! Thanks!

It sounds like the graphics subsystem is using the software renderer. You are probably not getting hardware acceleration. El Capitan is using hardware acceleration for most of the visible screen rendering (Finder etc). If your card(s) are not matching a known personality, then the system falls back to no acceleration.Hi! I did 10.9 / 10.10 flawlessly and now wanted to do El Capitan.

I'm just guessing....
But... your machine matched the Vervet personality too, so ignore what I said.
Are there any other symptoms?
Have you checked the system.log using the Console?
Not sure what to look for, can you be more specific?
[doublepost=1497752422][/doublepost]I took a copy of the entire logs, maybe it can help.
It's attached

I can't be more specific. You are looking for log entries that seem to be "wrong", or "should not be there"...
Attaching your complete log is a good start. I have taken a look at it for you. There is one very obvious thing that jumps out, the System is complaining a lot about USB

It seems to be having trouble with something plugged into port 3, which may then have a knock-on effect to port 4. Notice ports 1 and 2 are created successfully, then there are a bunch of unsupported speed entries probably when trying to initialise port 3, followed by errors on port 4.
As you go through the boot sequence and the machine finishes its startup, the kernel logs lots of errors about the USB repeatedly

Disconnect all USB devices (except mouse/kb) see if that helps. If you do have a third party 4-port USB card fitted, remove it entirely - does that improve the overall feel.
If you isolate the issue to the USB card, great. Does it require a driver (kernel extension)? Is it compatible with El Capitan (has it been updated)?
If the USB does not alter your perception of overall performance, with the USB still removed, check the system.log file again. For the most recent boot, ensure the PXS4 entries are no longer present, and work your way through the log file again looking for things that might be "odd". You can generally ignore the launchd entries and the sandbox entries (but review them quickly, again looking for something non-Apple, or non-typical). I notice a lot of entries for CommCenter, this might the next thing to investigate. Personally I don't know what CommCenter is, Google it....

OMG. Ok, I got an pci-e 2 ports USB 3.0 and it's working great on yosemite but not on El cap... I did once without anything plugged in and bugs was still there. But then I retried with a second reboot and it was the problem...
So thanks for your time!
Hello Everyone.
I have been following this thread to try to update my brand new(old) Mac 2006 1.1
Here is so far what I have accomplished and what not.
-Got the machine
-Upgrade to 2.1
-RAM upgrade(12 total)
-Got my kid's ole' cpu, took away 5770 gpu
-Flashed gpu (Successful!, shows bar and whatever while loading)
-Borrowed an "Install osX El Capitan 10.11.6.app" from a friend.
So, I tried out Page 56 method (2017 revision) (v14) and everything went unbelievable fine, until first boot for configuration after installation.
--Installation gets done.
--Problem comes when I reboot (doesn't reboot properly, have to wait, turn it off and turn it on again).
Loading bar gets up to 3/4 and stops, no response. If I turn it off and on again, the bar gets only half way through.
I have to admit that, at first, my inner Homer J Simpson told me that 12gb RAM were required for everyone else… of course it crashed.
So, has anyone gone through this?
Thanks
