Beta testing v2.0 with OpenCore #44
Comments
|
* Added UPDATE Now I have tested installing to my hard drive directly, same problem appeared. |
|
install on 10.15 beta 7 installer not work. |
Sorry for some confusing words. In fact, in order to be avoid of unknown problems, I actually installed the package on my USB drive, after everything is ok, I moved the EFI directory from USB drive to my hard drive, and I didn't meet the "trying to install content to the system volume" problem. Now I have tested installing to my hard drive directly, same problem appeared. |
ok i try later. thx. |
|
@kowbot on 10.15 I think you have to disable SIP. Can you try that? |
@osy86 i already disable SIP. |
|
@osy86 https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/caiue5/macos_catalina_readonly_file_system_with_sip/ i think is this new feature >= 10.15 |
|
I see, can you file a new issue
|
|
@osy86 new issue created. |
i have very very similar system. i can't boot with OC. |
Here, I did't make any change except for adding the support for my wireless card. |
thx. i try later. |

Scenarios tested: 2 Using DW1830 Wireless Card, With additional BrcmPatch Kext set. Now AppleALC is not working properly. After an nvram Reset, it worked. |
|
Updated to 10.15 beta 8, seems nothing broken. |
|
install.log Installed HacMini.pkg on 1.4.1 -> Boot only to Windows possible. Tried rescue bbedit command from guide. Fails with attached error message.
Scenarios tested: 2 Using DW1820 Wireless Card, with additional BrcmPatch kexts for Bluetooth. |
This fixed it for me: 1.) Repaired Windows Bootloader with only Windows SSD plugged in.
|
|
it seems that the "OpenCore Configurator" will change some properties in DeviceProperties. All "name" data type were changed to "Data" and string won't be put into. This caused my SDCard Reader not working. If anyone is facing the same problem maybe it can be worked around. |

working good. ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ does OC have set default boot volume is not support? |

Scenarios tested: 1 (attempted installation of Hac Mini 2.0 or 2.1 on USB with macOS Mojave 10.14.6.04 (Aug 20, 2019 build) from MacBook Pro 13 on macOS Catalina 10.15 beta8 (19A573a) Running into same issue noted by jasegti on September 12 on InsanelyMac: "I cannot for the life of me get the usb installer to work. Followed instructions to create usb installer which works fine and running HaCMini.pkg and selecting patch osx ends in a failed installation." Following the steps in the guide, and confirming that the USB is formatted as GUID Mac OS journaled, the first attempt to install either HaCMini 2.0 or 2.1 on the Mojave installer USB yields this image: |

Scenarios tested: whats this? I used my macbook (10.15 beta 7) to created installer usb, but install pkg does not work which always shows install fail. I directly copied EFI folder and it works. Question 1: Question 2: |
Depends on the flavour of your DW1820A there are several threads by Hérve on OsxLatitude.

Hi, Please find my testing below:
I had to set ShowPicker to true under boot to actually boot otherwise I would get a black screen. The ALT key method did not work for me at all. I could not use the HacMini package as it was giving me errors, so I just copied the EFI folder from the release page after creating the bootable Catalina installer from an original Mac App Store download. I have noticed that on some YouTube video with Firefox the colours seem a bit off, particularly when looking a shades of black backgrounds. I have not noticed this under Windows 10. Fonts are looking bigger than normal, compared to a normal Mac (Mini) as well. |
Geekbench 5 tests
Issues

I use dw1560,but it can't work. Can you share your EFI please |
@Tonyce - Would you be able to share your EFI? I also have a DW1560 but cannot get Bluetooth to work. Thank you! |
After about one month, I still can not get bluetooth to work on 10.15 with my DW1820A. I almost tried everthing. OpenCore shows Windows to go as a bootcamp, use ShowPicker in config file, I can choose which system to boot. I also can choose startup system in macos and it will automatically boot. |
I am very sorry, because I am busy with my studies, I have not paid attention on GitHub for a while, please see if #91 helps. These kexts updated several times in the past month, maybe you can try the EFI I offered in that issue. |

Scenarios tested: 2 (updated over HaC Mini version 2.0) Just ran the installer again, over my 2.0 install, using the standard settings of v2.3, and it definitely takes care of the black screen issue at boot up. But the machine still identifies as a 21 inch iMac. The release notes mention that #59 had been addressed, so is there something that I manually need to do to reflect a Mac mini rather than a 21 inch iMac? |
|
I have install the v2.3, and I found the OpenCore boot menu cannot be select. |
You need to select the option to regenerate serial numbers. |
Explain what you mean. Maybe provide a picture. |
|
Do you mean “unique identifiers”?

Yes |
I mean the OpenCore boot menu items cannot be selected. Just like the keyboard doesn't work. |
|
@ryinnyc @zhengwuyue This is EFI with v2.3 that I am using. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f0ZNfrCogodA9mhDjPZFIf5dX5Mq2Inw/view?usp=sharing |
|
You mean your number keys do not work? |
yes |
|
Can you try a different keyboard? Also try pressing “5” for nvram reset. |
|
Yes, I just want press 5 to reset nvram. but it not work. so i use my USB installer with v2.2 to do this. USB installer with v2.2 works well, i remember USB installer with v2.3 seems not work as well. |
|
It’s probably an opencore bug. v2.3 uses the latest opencore. |
|
just did the catalina update to 10.15.1 and it broke all video [hdmi/DP], you can screenshare in but graphics show up as unknown display and don't output to the monitor. troubleshooting it now Scenarios tested: 2 (updated over HaC Mini version 2.2 things were fine until OS update) |
|
I literally pinned the issue for a reason. #1 10.15.1 breaks the graphics. |
|
sorry wasnt trying to rile you. |
|
I think this will be a difficult problem to fix. The reason graphics works at all in 10.14.5+ is due to the workaround. 10.15.1 breaks the workaround so the options are either to fix the workaround or to fix the original problem. I’m hoping to fix the original problem because it’s a more long term fix. |
|
works with that updated kext. i am finding bluetooth is busted, its a BCM943602CS too, the wifi is still working. |
|
Great news! Guess the workaround continues to leave for another update. |

Scenarios tested: 2 Using DW1820 Wireless Card, additional kexts BrcmBluetoothInjector, BrcmFirmwareData, BrcmPatchRAM3 Still had to reorder kexts to see CPU temp sensors. |

@HorstBrack75 Could you share your config.plist ? |
Vanilla like it is now in 2.3.3 where the temp sensor issue is solved now. Only added this section for DW1820A at the very end of the Kernel section: <dict>

Scenarios tested [1,3]: Using BCM94360CS2 and adapter, only on 10.15.x intermittent bluetooth dropout... using Apple bluetooth Keyboard and mouse, every 10 minutes or so bluetooth will stop working for about 10 seconds... Mouse freezes and keyboard stops responding... system self recovers... this behavior cannot be reproduced in 10.14.x I have tried resetting the com.apple.bluetooth preferences, but the issue persists... I have not noticed this if I boot using clover BM, only with OC BM... |
HaC Mini v2.0 is a major update that brings an automated installer along with migration to OpenCore from Clover. We need help testing it on different configurations. The main configurations we want to cover are:
There are 3 test scenario. Please try to test as many as possible but you do not need to test them all. Please make sure you have a backup of your system and of the EFI partition in case something goes wrong.
Scenario 1: New Installation
Follow the guide for a new install from start to finish. Note you will be wiping your SSD so make sure you have a backup.
Scenario 2: Existing Installation
Follow the guide for an existing install.
Scenario 3: Basic functionality
Try all of the ports and make sure nothing new breaks. Try sleep/resume. Try geekbench and make sure the score isn't significantly lower than before.
Test report
Please format your report as follows in a comment reply below:
Make a separate report for each different configuration. Include any optional comments, suggestions, etc on the guide and anything else you've tested.
If you ran into any issues, you should file a new issue in addition to replying to this issue with your test report. Do it even if there is an existing issue open because we now have a new issue template that requests more information and should make things easier to track. Older issues will be closed as duplicates when newer issues with more information are opened. Eventually, issues only in v1.x will not be resolved.
