I haven't used Martin's package in a long long while now, but if I recall correctly, it should allow for your NVME to mount and show as internal, and I also believe he might already include some code for the Titan Ridge SSDT in his package (though I may be mistaken).

Paging @h9826790

If not, then go to Page 1 of this thread > within the "Complete Your Setup" section > search for "Thunderbolt" > follow those instructions.

Oh yeah, also, all questions/support for Martin's package can take place within his thread as opposed to this one, though you could still ask some questions in here, since it IS still OpenCore.

Let's see what Martin says, but good choice and good luck!

Correct, my package has a SSDT included for flashed TR card (only for the card install in slot 4). The SSDT "switch" is at the beginning of the config, disabled by default. User can change the "false" to "true" to turn that on.

In any case, I still recommend the user read though cdf's instruction.

His problem most likely due to OCLP patched system kext for the GT120. Therefore, his OS now is locked to the GT120. Therefore, his RX580 can display by using the UEFI GOP during boot. But once swtich to the OS GPU driver, it failed to load the driver properly.

I think he can run OCLP again to un-do the root patches. This may be good enough to make the RX580 work.
 
I live with both worlds. I use oclp and do some changes.

For example oclp does not give -no_compat_check to the boot-args. Should have an option in the gui.

I know this not an oclp thread :)

Hi, has anyone gone through this?
I have a MacPro 5.1 2012 with X5680, 64GB RAM, 500GB SSD Samsung 870 Evo SATA and Nvidia GT 120.
Using MacOS BigSur with OpenCore 0.8.8 and OCLP 0.5.3.
Yesterday my Sapphire RX 580 8GB Pulse arrived, and I installed it on the MacPro, but when I start MacOS, Apple Loading appears, when it finishes loading, instead of entering the user screen, it has a black screen.
Any idea?
Click to expand...
Weird. I can't see recovery mode if my second smaller monitor is connected via DisplayPort to the Rx850. If I disconnect it then recovery shows in the main monitor (which is connected by DVI-D). From boot, Big Sur login and Apple progress bar always appear on my 2nd monitor when connected. Almost as if it expects the DisplayPort connection to be the main monitor. Log-in from sleep etc. reverts to main monitor once everything is running. Wonder if there's any relation between these issues?
 
I’m using Martin’s package untouched with Monterey and almost everything is running smoothly. I still can’t get a warm boot (restart) to load Monterey without bringing up the prohibitory symbol. Thunderbolt card is recognized (and flag set to true) but without a second boot I can’t get some of my Thunderbolt devices to mount. Is anyone else have an issue with warm boot?

Warm booting to get full Thunderbolt functionality (in particular, USB 3 tunneling) is a well known issue. On the other hand, a prohibitory symbol on every warm boot is definitely not normal: it is due to an OC misconfiguration or to a damaged macOS installation.

Thank you cdf. Is there something specific in terms of open core configuration I can look at? I have installed the OS successfully direct from apple, and tried a few different versions with same results. As rebooting is normally required when installing an OS quite often I would get this prohibitory symbol during an install and then with cold boot it would continue to install with no issue. Is this why it may think the OS is damaged? I will try creating a fresh Monterey install tonight on a brand new internal ssd. I’m really not sure what else to check here.

Does the warm boot issue also occur with other OC-booted macOS installations? If so, then perhaps you could try a minimal config to rule out any issues. The basic config in post #1 with update option 1 (VMM flag) is about as minimal as you can get.

If this has happened right from the beginning (even during the installation), then while the installation can certainly be damaged, the underlying issue is probably elsewhere.

Good idea. Hardware is certainly another possibility! In fact, from the additional info you've provided, I'm leaning towards that. Let us know how it goes.

There is an APPLE folder still left in the EFI from install with updates and files in there. Would this have any issue on warm boot in open core?
Click to expand...
No you can just ignore this. This folder is created by the macOS installer for staging firmware updates (which get blocked by OC).
 
Interesting... I have 2 Mac OS versions currently installed in my cMP. Mojave is on an SSD using one of the PCI slots with an OWC card. I bought another SSD and adapter and installed it in the first SATA spot and installed Monterey. I was booting opencore off a USB but migrated it on to the SATA SSD with Monterey installed as everything appeared to be working. Currently using Martin Lo's package of OC 0.8.8 as I couldn't figure out which parts to take out/leave in the config to boot both Mojave and Monterey. When I cold boot everything works, but I tried a couple other situations:
Cold Boot Mojave -> Restart into Mojave = Monterey SSD missing from desktop (no incompatible disk alerts)
Cold Boot Mojave -> Restart into Monterey = prohibitory sign (as has been happening in all previous warm boots)
Cold Boot Mojave -> Restart into Mojave = again Monterey SSD not showing (no incompatible disk alerts)
The warm boot seems to make the internal SATA SSD disappear, however OC is present and using the version command in terminal from your first post it shows 88 installed. disk utility does not see the drive or terminal using the list command.
That sounds more like a hardware issue to me :(
I have a brand new Crucial SSD loaded in the 3rd SATA spot, it's erased and formatted as APFS ready for an install and at least it has been showing up consistently with every boot. I will do a deep NVRAM reset, re-install open core on a USB (if the internal SSD is the issue) and try a fresh install of Monterey to the new crucial drive and see if anything changes.
 
i can't see external USBs in the boot picker anymore. i used different USBs and they work on other devices. What could be the issue here?
 
Hi everyone, I'm not having as much luck with OCLP as I am with Martin's OC. I tried to boot MacOS with Martin's OC, without success, and I managed with OCLP, but I'm having a problem with the Boot Loading Apple not appearing when I restart, and I'm having to turn off the machine completely, wait 10 seconds and turn it on again. I'm still having a problem with the Titan Ridge that appears in the report but even connecting the TB3 device it doesn't recognize it. The following error occurs, when I have to initialize the system, after the reboot did not work.

A couple of minor thoughts - first it is probably best to ask for help on Martin Lo's package in the dedicated thread. Second - Mojave does not understand the APFS format of Monterey so the disk will not show up. You should, however, get an error message about an incompatible disk when you get to the Mojave desktop on boot.

Not really solving your issues but maybe narrowing things down a bit.
 
Can you help me guys? i have mohave 5.1 mp and had to come back to my flashed radeon 7950 because my rx580 died.
Now how to remove open core from the efi patition?
Just deleting oc and boot from efi part is enough?
do i have to rebless it?

thanks

Does anybody know where I can get a trustworthy copy of Monterey 12.3.1? I'm still experiencing unexpected black screen reboots with 12.6 and would like to experiment with the pre-AVX version.

Otherwise I may drop the Mac Pro to Big Sur now I've got this laptop set up with a dock. Graphics-wise the Radeon VII still thrashes this M1 Pro (and I can boot Windows on the MP5,1, woo) but the MacBook Pro is twice as fast multi-core and nearly three times faster single-core for the daily chew. And it saves my electricity bill, think it's using about 5 W. 😂

Found a little time to experiment this evening. I started from zero, followed the post 1 guide and made a completely new OpenCore EFI, just in case. Lovely. Booted new Monterey 12.6.3 installer, installed to an NVME drive just fine. Happy days.

System sat at the setup screen for forty minutes while I finished something up, then I set up my account. I did not set up iCloud - just a normal old local account with no online shenanigans.

Loaded System Preferences and went to adjust mouse tracking speed... black screen, reboot.

I'm creating a Big Sur 11.7.3 installer now to see if that survives longer and I'll follow the same process. I skipped Big Sur, so it'll at least be interesting to see it.

EDIT: Big Sur won't boot and it's time to stop, something about "AppleNVMe assert failed". Same OC which just installed Monterey. OpenCore does boot back into the black-screening Monterey though, where I got this report:

Did you make sure to add AppleMCEReporterDisabler?

Yup, that's there and seems to be in the config just fine.

Weirdly, I can install Monterey with no issues, but trying to install Big Sur 11.7.3 gets me all sorts of nonsense. I made a new installer USB and it gets a good chunk of the way through the process, then after a reboot back into the installer it gives me this:

Same OC 0.8.8 and config allows installation of Monterey 12.6.3 to the same drive with no trouble.

I know I'm chasing two problems here - the black screen and reboot thing in Monterey is the one that's actually important. If that worked I'd not be bothered about Big Sur, it's just a test to see if it bombs in the same way at any point.

Hmm. I haven't touched Big Sur in a while. If SurPlus is still needed, then the kernel version settings might need an adjustment. As for the Monterey issue: would you mind posting your config just in case?

Ahh, SurPlus! I'll bet that's missing from my config - yes, it is. I'll add it and give Big Sur another test.

Don't mind at all, appreciate the help. Attached is my config as-is and working for Monterey, but with the weird black screen-reboot issue happening. It's basically vanilla except for the PowerPlay table for the Radeon VII and the catch-all internal drives patch. I've removed both of those with no change in behaviour.

EDIT: So strange, Big Sur installer now won't boot with those "AppleNVMe Assert failed" errors again. Typo in the config file. Always use plutil, kids! :D

Not really seeing anything obvious here. Perhaps try disabling FeatureUnlock and AVXpel...

Thanks, I'll give that a go later on, see how Monterey behaves.

Big Sur installed fine in the end with the addition of SurPlus... but the completed installation will not boot. In verbose mode I can see it loads fine up to a point, then the text output becomes scrambled, then it begins boot-looping.

This is all with the same config file, by the way. Monterey boots fine every time.

i can't see external USBs in the boot picker anymore. i used different USBs and they work on other devices. What could be the issue here?
Click to expand...
does't anyone have a fix for this? I looked at a bunch of settings in my config.plist but could't spot anything that could prevent the USB booters not to show up in the OC boot picker. I tried different USB drives as well as different installers of win 10 and 11
