No, my windows install is on a partition on my HDD, not the SSD. It was an APFS snapshot that ate all the space. Which means I could have saved myself some rather time rm -r'ing stuff without any protection. I can now launch the installer, however it restarts halfway through, sending me back to...

Thanks a lot, that managed to get me to the installer. Now I just need to figure out how to actually install it, since the installer claims my boot disk does not have enough space. I tried to free up some using the terminal, where my boot volume uses up 113G measured with du -sh, but the...

I am trying to install Ventura on my system, and it seems I can't get opencore to work. Selecting the installer it boots up, with the text log showing before it getting stuck on a black screen. Currently using opencore-0.9.8 Debug version. My EFI and the bootlog is attached.

I'm still unable to get the installer to start from the USB drive. I attached the boot log along with the EFI content.

Oh yeah, I removed the Nvidia card already.

What part is problematic? How far can I upgrade? The graphics card is getting updated, otherwise I thought you said I could upgrade straight to Ventura?

I'm currently unsure what is wrong with my old High Sierra boot stick as it results in a black screen, despite verbose -v being on. I also tried to set up a separate new Boot Stick with OpenCore and a macOS Ventura Installer, but this is still work in progress. Trying to boot my old system with...

It looks like this is going to take longer. The old USB installer shows the osx partitions, but can't boot into them.

I am afraid not, I just used the direct prompt to update when opening the clover partition with clover configurator.

Well, it looks like I made a bit of a mess, I tried to upgrade now and upgraded clover to 5157, where I now don't see my osx partition any more, just the windows one. Also I am unsure how to actually upgrade, I tried to download the installers from the App Store, but it always says that the...

Thank you. I'll probably get a second hand graphics card to swap it out, I was just worried if there were any other pitfalls to be aware of.

So, I have been stuck on High Sierra for a while since I still have a Nvidia graphics card, which never got any drivers for later versions. Now with steam turning off support for OSX soon, I need some kind of upgrade plan. Anyone has any good suggestions what would be the easiest to upgrade, in...

I ran the installer again, and I actually managed to avoid the gIOLockState 3 error if I boot from internal graphics, however then I end in a reboot cycle, with the text scrolling too fast to properly see what is even going on. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6rdqw6jracgu1yd/IMG_5946.mov?dl=0

Does anyone know how to diagnose/why VESA mode fails? "nv_disable=1" fails to change anything to me, leaving me with a bricked machine.

I booted up in single user mode, and found that in Library/Extensions i had a NvidiaGraphicsFixup kext, which in now deleted, but I am still stuck at gIOScreenLockState for any configuration but single user mode.
