Thanks buddy. That's exactly what I did, started again. Yes, it's the correct USB controller as the keyboard works under clover during boot. Now I can pass single USB devices, but when I pass the entire controller it crashes. Good news is that I can get it to boot with the UEFI bios and Clover, I hate legacy I'll look into it and thanks again for your help!

Hey gridrunner, Are you running <kernel>/mnt/user/ssd/enoch_rev2795_boot</kernel> ? Enoch doesn't detect my keyboards, changing it to clover and it's ok.

Im just used to clover. But I'm getting desperate so I might move back to Enoch and see how I go. It's funny at the moment, I"m trying to control my 4K screen via VNC as I have no input devices, lol

Heh all works except for USB, so no KB, Mouse or BT, I'm can only access it via VNC, lol

Yep. Full Res Accelerated. I just added nvda_drv=1 in clover, and installed the latest Nvidia Web drivers of course. [edit] sorry I could of been a little clearer On first boot, boot with nv_disable=1 Install latest nvidia web drivers Reboot and add nvda_drv=1 to clover's boot args

Thanks for that peter. I've also tried with passing single devices rather than the entire controller, and that crashes as well. Seems when I pass USB Clover crashes, take it out and clover is happy. Do you guys also have? <controller type='usb' index='0'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/> </controller> Also you're using SeaBios right?

Thanks gridrunner. I've used your config (only changed the addresses) and it's still the same. Can I get your config file please? Something else must be causing a conflict.

Wow, Thanks for your help peter. It's all happening, I even passed the GPU and the GTX 970 is happy with OSX. I'm having a problem with the USB though, I'm passing the entire controller. But when I'm passing the controller through the keyboard is working at Clover, but I'm getting a kernel panic on boot. "unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".../IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1665" Does my passthrough look ok to you guys? I've also tried USBBusFix=Yes but it doesn't seem to help.

There are always issue with what we do I can't seem to get clover to boot for the life of me, are you using the VMF-pure-efi.fd bios Peter? If i use the EFI/Clover: <target dev='hdb' bus='virtio'/> Clover stops booting, I'm guessing it doesn't know about the virtio driver and if I set it as SATA, ie: <target dev='hdb' bus='sata'/> EFI Bios doesn't see the disk. Cheers.

Thanks for the help peter_sm & archedraft. I'll give it a go, you guys rock!

Thanks archedraft. Ok next mission, have you tried getting it to boot with clover using waschbenzin's clover image from insanelymac? I tried everything and all i'm getting is +++++++++ from clover when I'm booting from the HDD.

Thanks for your help archedraft. Managed to get the installer to run, woohoo. I used the passthrough and nv_disable=1 and it seems to work. I was reading your posts, what are the chances of us getting sleep to work? That would be awesome, I can finally get rid of the desktop.

Created a new image: Install_OS_X_10.11.1_El_Capitan.iso (based on 10.11.1) Got your XML again, just changed the paths, very weird. Are you running it on 6.1.4 and qemu-x86_64 version 2.3.0 archedraft ? Cheers.

Thanks archedraft.

Yep. In fact I'm watching openelec now with GPU passthrough. Model: NAS3001 M/B: ASRock - H97 Killer CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-4690 CPU @ 3.50GHz HVM: Enabled IOMMU: Enabled I'm recreating the iso atm, hoping that will fix the problem

Thanks for the great guide archedraft. I'm struggling to get this to work with 6.1.4, The installer won't load. If i boot with -v “KernelBooter_kexts”=”Yes” “CsrActiveConfig”=”103” I get the following, any pointers would be awesome. I've also tried -x with no luck.
