Hi everyone,
I'm working on setting up a Hackintosh on my HP EliteBook 840 G3 and I'm running into some persistent issues. I could really use your help!
Here’s a summary of what’s happening:
After installing macOS Sonoma on my SATA SSD, the computer reboots and tries to boot from the internal SSD, which leads to “Boot Device Not Found, please install an operating system.” There was also an option with the internal disk icon, but selecting it led to the same “Boot Device Not Found, please install an operating system” message.
I thought the installation might have gone wrong, so I tried reinstalling, but the issue remains unchanged.
Since the operating system was installed but couldn't start, I copied the EFI folder from the USB to the EFI partition of the internal SSD from the recovery environment.
After copying the EFI folder from the USB to my internal SSD using the Terminal in macOS Recovery, I'm still stuck in a boot loop. The system reboots, automatically selects the SSD to continue, enters verbose mode, then reboots again, and so on in a loop.
Despite copying the EFI folder from macOS Recovery and using the Terminal, the system continues to restart continuously.
The “Boot Device Not Found” error and the verbose log indicate potential issues with OpenCore configuration or missing files.
I'm looking for guidance on:
What might be missing or misconfigured in OpenCore?
Are there any other troubleshooting steps I should try?
I’ve included an image of the last lines of the verbose log before the automatic reboot.
I’ve already made the following BIOS adjustments:
**Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX)** -> Disabled
Unchecked **“Fast Boot”
Unchecked **“Legacy Boot Order”
Checked **“UEFI Boot Order”**
Disabled **Legacy Support** and **Secure Boot**
Checked **“Hyperthreading”**
Checked **“Virtualization Technology (VTx)”**
Unchecked **“Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VTd)”
Video memory size** -> Set to **64MB** or anything higher
Thanks in advance for any help or advice!
