Install Catalina on Lenovo Ideapad s145 i7-1065G7

  • Hello guys, I would like to install Catalina on my laptop. I tried with clover in uefi mode and I had this error(Pic). Now I'm trying with opencore, bit without results.

    I'm following this guide: Guide.

    But my ssdts file names are different from those in the guide. Could you help me, please? Thanks.

  • Hi TUNIN96 and welcome to the forum... :)

    This old MacbookPro8,1 SMBIOS cannot be used with Catalina, since the model's latest macOS is High Sierra.

    That's the info in your picture.


    Since the 10th gen CPUs are currently not support from macOS this might get a little tricky.

    Please try the attached EFI, which contains the SMBIOS of the current MacbookPro16,1, but with a faked internal Graphics setup in hopes that it might help to get a working picture in Catalina at all.


    Also be aware, that your Laptop does not have a builtin network card and the Wifi/Bluetooth thingie might not be supported.

  • The same error with the same message?

    Code
    1. This version of Mac OS X is not supported on this platform!
    2. Reason: Mac-942459F5819B171B

    if so, you did something wrong while copying the contents of the EFI.zip.

    If you have an EFi-folder on your EFI partition, rename it to "EFI-old" before you copy the contents.

  • Please post pics within the forum and don't use filehosters.

    No one will be able to recreate the situation if the file is lost...


    Thank you

  • Hello guys, my laptop gets stuck here. I'm using clover and I uploaded my efi folder.

    As you can see in my efi folder, I tried to put ssdt-ec.aml but it's the same.

    Could you help me, please? Thanks.

    Replace* [HEX] =A00A910A FF0BFFFF

    Comment = Disable AWAC
