This was my first Hackintosh in 2009 with Snow Leopard and I have been updating it ever since. Almost everything is working well in High Sierra, including shutdown. Only Reboot does not get back to the BIOS: it shuts down mostly, then switches off the screen and stays stuck with the power LED still on. This was working fine in Clover. Sleep also does not work, but never really worked in the past.
I have tried various settings and fixes including FadtEnableReset
, but nothing works to fix Reboot. What would you recommend?
- OpenCore Debug log included here: opencore-debug-log.log · chriswayg/hackintosh · GitHub
I generally followed the Opencore Vanilla Desktop Guide and the OpenCore Configuration.pdf - the parts I configured differently from the Guide are noted here in more detail: Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L · chriswayg/hackintosh · GitHub, which also has the EFI folder with config.plist, the DSDT.aml and all other files. An important addition was the RTCMemoryFixup.kext to prevent BIOS reset, as the OpenCore built-in RTC fix did not work.
Amazingly I was still able to boot into my old macOS 10.9.5 Mavericks partition on the second drive, which works just as well with OpenCore as in 2015 with Clover. Audio, Nvidia Web Drivers and Ethernet are all working.
