Trouble entering installer, stuck at verbose screen, SMM Sensors Not Detected, AsRock Z370m-itx/ac Mojave

Hey all,

As title states, I’m having trouble even reaching the Apple logo to begin installation.

  • Motherboard: Z370m-itx
  • Adata 16gb DDR4
  • i7-8700 non K version
  • RX 570
  • Samsung EVO 860 2.5 drive

I’ll do my best to outline my steps.

  • Vanilla install method,
  • clover boot loader -> HFS, both Aptio, emuvariablefix, optional RC scripts
  • clover configuration: added Lilu, whatevergreen, fakeSMC (INCLUDNG ALL SENSORS!)
  • config.plist is one I found of the same mobo on tonymac (success build)

That’s pretty much it.

I’ve tweaked stuff but it’s either the SMMSensors or no nvram variable found that’s preventing me from seeing the Apple logo. I’ve also tried to do a Unibeast install.. that did reach the Apple logo but it would freeze at the end.

Bios settings have also been adjusted to the recommended for the mobo.

Any help would be appreciated!
