Successful update on my supported Mac Mini

Waiting on the amazing @dosdude1 for his patcher app for my unsupported devices.
Just got the 10.14.4 Public release Beta Test notice. This may have been asked and answered before, but how does one find the updates once downloaded through the "Beta Software Updater", other than downloading them through the Patcher? When through the App Store they're in the Apps folder.
DD1, once you're all done with the latest Patcher, I think it's time for Cocktails! Donation forthcoming. Thank You! Sir!!
AMD6000Controller is for 6xxx series cards, which will NOT work under Mojave. 7xxx and later WILL work under Mojave, but NOT on a MacPro3,1.
just wait for the patcher, but youll probably have to revert to 10.14.3 to do that
You will need to wait for the new version. I should have it ready to release momentarily.
Mojave Patcher version 1.3.0 has now been released! It includes all new patches, such as the Broadcom BCM4321 WiFi Patch, and the 10.14.4 non-Metal GPU fix. Full 10.14.4 installer creation is also supported, of course.
Re-apply Legacy Audio Patch, and you should be good. Also, force cache rebuild.
Just an interesting comment here, not sure if anyone else has run into it...I just patched a 2009 13" Macbook pro...I picked it up for $50 on craigslist, the original owner had a bad ram chip that caused a kernel panic/boot loop and he just wanted to get rid of it...
Took me a few hours to figure out what the kernel dump was telling me. replaced the ram and everything started to boot ok...UNTIL...
Until I started loading Mojave with the patcher... it would load about 25% and then I'd get a message that this machine did not have compatible hardware...but I knew from reading this magnificent thread that it DID indeed have all the working parts and should have been able to load...
Finally after exploring a bit I loaded into terminal from the patcher and started digging around...
Here's what I found...because the battery had been drained and the system dead for a prolonged period when the software loaded the machine had set itself back to Jan. 1 2001...of course it would not have hardware from 2009 if it thought it was 2001...
A little education on changing the date in bash and it loaded perfectly after that.
Lesson learned: Know what time it thinks it is.

Yup. Some other people have run into this problem before, and the fix was as you describe.
Yes but you can’t use the installer until I update it for 10.14.4@0403979 if 10.14.4 is release, I will able to patch the machine, right? (This is my first time using your patcher so I am quite curious about it)

10.14.4 installers are incompatible until further notice. However, if you updated to 10.14.4, you can still patch using an older 10.14 installer.
[doublepost=1553576268][/doublepost]macOS 10.14.4 installer support will come to macOS Patcher later this afternoon (Europe time) unless I run into issues. Until then, you can still patch your new 10.14.4 installation with any older version of 10.14 and it will work correctly (GPU patch and all). I’m sorry I can’t bring this update sooner but I have school during the day unfortunately and I missed the release because of time zones and Apple releasing it a bit later than usual.
D/L 14.4.08 Mojave w/ 1.30 patcher. Built USB installer. All went well until this
numerous attempts, fail.
