macOS Sierra 10.12 (16A201w) Developer Preview
Installation only for the brave, who is not afraid to lose the Old!
Put on a separate hard-not the main system!
Brief step-by-step installation instructions 10.12 Sierra.Phased installation instructions
Installation 10.12 Sierra
1. Make sure the processor is supported. This is due to the fact that the support of processors not having SSE4 instructions, in particular, Haswell, has been discontinued (Strangely enough). We check (in another macos) in the terminal like this: sysctl -a machdep.cpu.features. Or in another way
2. If the processor is not supported, then you can not read.
To date, it can not be treated. Not at all.3. If everything is in order, download the distribution.
4. We check our model on the list, under which we mow on the installed system:
iMac (late 2009 or newer)
MacBook (12-inch, 2015 or newer)
MacBook Pro (end of 2010 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
Mac Mini (early 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (early 2010 or newer)
If it is on this list, fine. If not, we add our model to the PlatformSupport.plist distribution. Located in System \ Library \ CoreServices \
We copy it to the desktop, open it in PlistEditor, add our macro model to SupportedModelProperties, add the Board ID to SupportedBoardIds (Taken from the SMBIOS section of the Clover config). Modified PlatformSupport.plist is copied back into the distribution kit with the replacement.
5. Update Clover to version 3567.
It is necessary.
6. We take
workingClover's config.
This is also a must. This is the config your system works with. It is all set up and working. Copy FakeSMC.kext to /EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.12 (create folder 10.12) or to / EFI / EFI / CLOVER / kexts / Other. In addition to FakeSMC.kext, we do not add any other cases. If there is no “DSMOS has arrived” during installation, move FakeSMC.kext from folder 10.12 to Other.
7. Add to boot arguments (bootargs, boot arguments)
-v debug = 0x100 This is also a must.After successful installation, they can be removed.
8. Determine the installation option. The first option is to make a flash drive, in the terminal sudo / Applications / Install \ 10.12 \ Developer \ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume / Volumes / NAME FLASH --applicationpath / Applications / Install \ 10.12 \ Developer \ Preview.app. The second option is to copy Install.APP to the programs and run the installation directly from under your working axis, and
Be sure to specify to install on another disc.
9. Depending on what kind of video card you have, options are possible.
Option One Nvidia:
a) Or we use the official driver if the video card is supported and no changes are made to the Clover config.
b) If the installation does not proceed, we add nv_disable = 1 to the Clover config argument, set it in VESA mode, first start with the key and install web drivers, nvda_drv = 1 arguments and reboot in normal mode.
10. Getting started to install. The process is similar to the installation of the Captain. Not fast. Especially with a flash drive. At the stage of the graphic part of the installation, it may be necessary to move the mouse periodically every 5-10 minutes so that the computer does not go to sleep.
11. At successful installation, we get a network, a sound, etc. But also in stages.
Where to get:The installation is not fundamentally different from the installation of El Capitan.
Be sure to add to boot arguments (butargs, Boot Arguments)
-v debug = 0x100to catch panic.
If this was not done, questions and requests for help like: "I have a setup, and then a crossed circle, what should I do?" or "installation is in progress, and then reboot, help," will be ignored. Help yourself.Config (config.plist) Clover is in most cases suitable for El Capitan.
Distinctive features:macOS Sierra can be installed on the following Macs:
iMac (late 2009 or newer)
MacBook (12-inch, 2015 or newer)
MacBook Pro (end of 2010 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
Mac Mini (early 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (early 2010 or newer)
If you do not have a supported mac, it is treated by adding your model to PlatformSupport.plist (shown below in the video)
INSTALLATION
1. Be sure to update Clover! 2. Copy FakeSMC.kext and others to /EFI/EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.12 (create folder 10.12) or to / EFI / EFI / CLOVER / kexts / Other Install.APP into programs
It is highly recommended that when installing for the first time, do not copy any other cases to folders 10.12 and Other.FakeSMC.kext copy clean, without sensors. You can add a box to the network, although it can also cause panic because of it, and it can also be done after installation.
2.1. Install over or on another disk - run Install.APP
2.2. For a new installation, make a flash command from Apple:
sudo / Applications / Install \ 10.12 \ Developer \ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume / Volumes / NAMES FLASH --applicationpath / Applications / Install \ 10.12 \ Developer \ Preview.app 3. Video 3.1. Nvidia:
a) Either use the official driver if the video card supports.
b) Either add nv_disable = 1 to the bootarguments, set it in VESA mode, launch the first one with the key and install web drivers, nvda_drv = 1 in the arguments and reboot in normal mode
Nvidia web-driver Sierra 16A201w
3.2. AMD77xx - legacy verge panics. Write the changes directly to the AMDRadeonX4000.kext list.
ati-personality.pl
4. Sound 4.1. In most cases, VoodooHDA.kext is sufficient.
You can also put VoddooHDA and HDADisabler in the folder 10.12, install the prefpanel, VoodooHdaSettingsLoader.app - launch and put it in the “Login Objects”
How to edit Pin Config.
Open VoodooHDA.kext / Contents / Info.plst and edit the NodesToPatch section.
Remove noise in the prefanel - InputGain, Monitor or another. depends on codec. Please note that you are setting up, perhaps HDMI, switch to the desired codec and select the connector.
4.2. Who disguises as ADI1984B (0x11D4198B) enter this patch:
Find: 8A19D411
Replace: 00000000
Name: AppleHDA
4.3. AplleALC either panics or stops the installation, if it is removed.
Or try this version of AplleALC:
5. Settings Installing prog from third-party sources -
sudo spctl --master-disable
6. Keyboard PS2 (unverified) No solution: Discontinued support for processors with no SSE4 instructions.
Check for the presence of instructions (in another macos) in the terminal like this:
sysctl -a machdep.cpu.features===========================================================================
Many problems with installation and initial setup are the same as in axes 10.8--10.11
Installation using the Hyak method with xite666 edits (video): In the video, in particular, the PlatformSupport.plist editing method is shown if you have an unsupported mac model.
