[Assimilate Scratch]: The application may crash due to a kernel exception in the NVIDIA OpenGL driver. If you encounter this issue, roll back the driver to version 385.90, or disable Deep Color within the application as follows: From the startup screen choose System Settings. - In the System Settings Dialog, choose the Advanced tab.
The race is on. Who's the first to get OS X version 10.11 El Capitan booting perfectly on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro (1,1/2,1)?
UPDATE: Only one day later, This first post has now been updated with recent summarized information. Simply looking to download the for El Capitan? Links:. 's can build a pre-patched OS X El Capitan installer with the Piker-Alpha bootloader for the 2006/2007 Mac Pro. 's If you have OS X El Capitan up and running on your 2006/2007 Mac Pro with Pike's boot loader, you should consider disabling 'Install OS X updates' and 'Install system data files and security updates' in System Preferences App Store so that OS X doesn't automatically install any future updates that may overwrite Pike's boot.efi. Security Update 2018-001 for Mac OS X El Capitan from Apple will break your MacPro 1,1 or 2,1.
The best advice we have is. DO NOT INSTALL IT!
If you do install the 2018-001 Update you will find that your machine will go into a boot loop. The boot process will start, almost immediately the machine will crash and restart.
The majority of this Security Update focusses on fixing the Spectre and Meltdown issues that have been widely reported. One of the major software components that has been modified to address these issues was the Mac OS X kernel file.
The Mac Pro 1,1 and 2,1 machines use Intel Xeon chip families that are NOT listed by Intel as affected by the Spectre and Meltdown issues. The changes made to the kernel file are believed to be unnecessary for the 1,1 and 2,1, worse, we believe that those changes are responsible for the crash/reboot loop. You can recover from the boot loop. Forum member has written one procedure at post. Other members have recovered by re-installing El Capitan from source, and yet more members have recovered by using a Time Machine backup, read some of the posts surrounding. Opinion varies.
Most members (including ) recommend not installing the Security Update and hiding it in the Mac App Store app. 's recovery procedure just overwrites the kernel file with the last-known-good kernel. If you do this, then you must also consider if you will run with an older kernel combined with updated kernel extensions (kexts).
It must be your choice, if you choose this option be aware Apple hasn't tested this combination and it could cause your machine to be unstable and to exhibit unexpected behaviour. Once you have recovered, you then have the luxury of deciding to re-install El Capitan at your leisure. If you do this then we believe you will be back to a more stable/tested combination of kernel and kernel extensions. Future Security Updates from Apple are likely to roll up the Security Update 2018-001, so please, turn off Automatic Updates, and check before choosing to install. If you find Pike's boot loader valuable in keeping your 2006/2007 Mac up-to-date, please consider simply thanking him via a comment, as he's done a lot of work without asking for anything in return or benefiting from this project.
How can these Macs run El Capitan? These 64-bit Mac Pros and Xserves have 32 firmware and can't natively boot OS X El Capitan 'out-of-the-box', but are easily capable of running it with a different boot loader. Once a new boot loader is used to launch the native 64-bit El Capitan, OS X 10.11 boots and works normally exactly as it does on a 2008 or newer with EFI64 firmware. While it's not exactly plug-and-play, it's close if you use 's, and most importantly, as long as you also upgrade the stock legacy graphics card that originally came with these Macs from 2006/2007. El Capitan requires a newer graphics card to function, see below. Unfortunately, even with a.

This is because newer macOS versions require the instruction set, and the Intel Xeon and CPUs in these Macs don't have that support. Background: OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard was the first OS X version with optional support for a, allowing. However, even if they had capable of running the 64-bit kernel. When Apple dropped the 32-bit kernel entirely from OS X, starting with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, EFI32 Macs no longer had an Apple-supported mechanism to boot newer OS X versions. The last version of OS X officially supported by Apple on the original 2006 Mac Pro MA356LL/A (MacPro1,1), and Xserve (Late 2006) MA409LL/A (Xserve1,1) models was OS X 10.7 Lion, and then only when booted with a 32-bit kernel due to their EFI32 firmware.
However, these Macs were the most and upgradable EFI32 models and have a, so the user community has been keeping them running with 64-bit kernels and newer OS X releases using a variety of methods. The Piker-Alpha bootloader can be used to boot OS X 10.11 El Capitan on unsupported Mac Pro models: This approach, using a fork of, uses a replacement native EFI32 that EFI64 calls from the 64-bit OS X kernel to the EFI32 firmware. Additional information about Pike's boot.efi is available at. There are two variations available, one with a legacy light grey background/dark grey Apple logo boot screen boot.efi that blends with the native EFI32 pre-boot screen (2008-2012 Mac Pro-style), and a new black background/white Apple logo boot screen boot.efi (2013 Mac Pro-style). The simplest method to boot El Capitan on these Macs is the 'pikify' createpikeinstallmedia script, or the new Pikify App to.
This directly allows an El Capitan installer to run to be run to completion on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro. Another alternative install on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro is to use a second El Capitan-supported Mac and install El Capitan to the 2006/2007 Mac Pro's drive.
This may be done either by attaching the 2006/2007 Mac Pro's drive as an external drive by placing the 2006/2007 Mac Pro in. This alternative approach still requires installation of the Piker-Alpha bootloader before it can be successfully booted on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro. After installation, copy Pike's EFI32 boot.efi to that drive's /usr/standalone/i386 and /System/Library/CoreServices/ directories overwriting the stock Apple EFI64 boot.efi. That drive should now be bootable on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro, although sometimes it still. (SIP) may be required to replace the boot.efi in-place.
Alternatively, there's also an to exclude these files from SIP, but it has shown mixed results. While this method is preferred because it's a native EFI boot, there is real risk that installing future El Capitan updates could overwrite Pike's EFI32 boot.efi if Apple were to update the stock EFI64 boot.efi. This has already happened in the few previous OS X El Capitan updates. When this happens, the system would no longer be natively bootable on a 2006/2007 Mac Pro until it had Apple's stock boot.efi re-replaced with Pike's boot.efi again. A simple approach to help protect against this is, but this approach requires disabling SIP.
Support for in El Capitan to allow, and with iOS devices: The original (///) and options from Apple. Several vendors, including, sell new add-on hardware kits to retrofit older Mac Pros with and that to. There have been reports of after replacing WiFi and Bluetooth hardware to enable Handoff. There has been a of an causing a. If you experience issues with the built-in USB ports under El Capitan, you may also consider removing or upgrading your Bluetooth card. In El Capitan, both and from OS X with an iPhone work with a 2006/2007 Mac Pro and are not dependent on.
Unsupported original legacy graphics cards vs. Vs.: El Capitan does not include device drivers for the original NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT, ATI Radeon X1900 XT, and NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 graphics cards that shipped with these Mac Pros, nor the ATI Radeon X1300 that shipped with the Xserve (Late 2006), so they do not work properly in El Capitan. These graphics cards display issues such as a very sluggish with no / support, no support (for DVD Player, Geekbench and other programs), graphics artifacts, mouse tearing, inability to change resolutions, bad refresh rates, and other system instabilities.
If you need normal graphics support in El Capitan, you will need a newer PCIe graphics card, with popular options being the Apple ATI Radeon HD 5770 Graphics Upgrade Kit for Mac Pro, or many different options of stock and Mac-' PC cards. Many, but not all, modern stock non-flashed PC graphics cards with AMD (for / support) or (for /OpenCL/OpenGL support) work 'plug and play' with El Capitan in 2006/2007 Mac Pros, although the display will remain off until after the OS X Desktop initializes. This means you won't see anything during the boot process. Compatible properly-Mac-flashed PC cards offer two benefits over stock non-flashed PC cards: allowing a normal boot screen just like a Mac-specific graphics card, and better compatibility in OS X with the card's capabilities/performance/ports. Most, but not all, Mac-flashed ATI/AMD cards have firmware that work in all PCIe-based 2006-2012 Mac Pro models with either EFI32 or EFI64.
All newer Mac-flashed Nvidia cards have EFI64 firmware and will act like non-flashed PC cards with no boot screens in EFI32-based 2006/2007 Mac Pros, except for older Mac-flashed Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT/9800 GT/GT 120 cards with EFI32 firmware. Lastly, El Capitan has added a new graphics API called that allows for much faster access to graphics card hardware.
Note that only the most recent AMD (HD 7xxx 'Tahiti' or newer) or Nvidia chipset (GeForce 6xx 'Kepler' or newer) graphics cards fully and properly support Metal in a 2006/2007 Mac Pro. Good, but without API support: The least expensive El Capitan-compatible recommended graphics card that can provide boot screens in any 2006-2012 Mac Pro is a, which was Apple's branding for the. Better, adding Metal support: Other more powerful graphics cards that can provide boot screens and Metal API support in a 2006/2007 Mac Pro are AMD such as a properly Mac-flashed / (similar memory architecture and clocks as the AMD FirePro D500 but with more cores) or better yet a (with the same as the AMD FirePro D700) based on. Best: Currently, the highest-performing graphics card that can provide boot screens and Metal support in a 2006/2007 Mac Pro is a / (10-15% faster clocks from the AMD Radeon 7970). This does not include the. MacVidCards sells a. Note that if for some reason you still need to boot OS X Lion or early Mountain Lion versions that all AMD Tahiti-based cards (7950/7970 and R9 280/280X) are only properly supported by OS X 10.8.3 or higher, although there are that may work in a 2006/2007 Mac Pro when used with tiamo's boot loader.
Note also that the 2006/2007 Mac Pro has PCIe 1.1 expansion slots, with the bottom double-wide slot capable of being configured to use a maximum 2.5 link speed when configured as a x16 lane graphics slot. El Capitan's, located in /System/Library/Core Services, supports the 2006-2007 Mac Pro to configure the number of lanes available in each slot. PCIe 2.0/3.0 cards that can run at 5.0 GT/s link speed in 2008-2012 Mac Pros can work in 2006/2007 Mac Pros, but only with a PCIe 1.1 maximum 2.5 GT/s link speed. None of these options are officially supported in these Mac Pros by AMD, Apple, or Nvidia, but can work with the Piker-Alpha boot loader. IMessage/FaceTime note: Regardless of approach used, some users after installing El Capitan as a security precaution.
When trying to login, they receive an iMessage Registration validation code. The solution is to, provide the, explain that El Capitan was installed and that iMessage isn't working and provide the validation code. Apple then unblocks the Mac Pro, allowing iMessage and FaceTime login immediately and in the future without other issues. I don't suppose the current Yose boot.efi works. Probably a stupid question, but I have all morning to play around (once this stuff downloads.) I'll give it a shot. EDIT: There does not appear to be a 'CreateInstallMedia' script in the beta app in the DMG, possibly just in the app.
EDIT2: If you have the App bundle, the createinstallmedia command works as usual. If you downloaded the DMG from the Developer Portal, you can use Disk Utility to restore it to a USB. PS: I like the new beachball. Click to expand.I installed the beta preview of El Capitan yesterday, but only as a VMware Fusion virtual machine.
I don't think I'll be physically installing El Capitan until it's released in the autumn. If the ATI 5770 card isn't Metal-compatible, we might be running short of options, as we'll need a 32-bit EFI card (in case we want it to display the Startup Manager), and that condition might be mutually exclusive with the advanced Metal capabilities, and if it isn't fully exclusive yet, it will be increasingly so.
