Hi Martin,
ok that's really strange. You could also not start the safe mode?
Well the first update from Sierra to (the 1st) Mojave did also go wrong
here, so had to reinstall Sierra then waited for a higher version of
Mojave 10.14.2 or something and that one went flawless on the Hackintosh.
For a previous job i had a Apple Laptop 2015 model and on it was MacOs
and Win8.1 with Refind bootloader, but as more customers started using
win10 i wanted win10 as 3rd boot option.
It took me a whole weekend and i needed it Mondays again. It went wrong
because they hijack the bootsector from each other. COuld not boot
win8.1 and after that could not boot MacOs anymore, except for the safe
mode. It's tricky because one needs to disable the SIP protection and
mount ESP volume to get Refind on it.
So i can understand that your cautious, so if you are to hesitate than
just don't do it and go for a safe way.
Regards

Hi JJS
I have an iMac that has the specs for a dual boot but I am reluctant to do it.
It has a 1 TB fusion drive and when I upgraded from Sierra to Mojave I ended
up with a non functioning fusion drive. I had a nice long chat with the Apple
Support tech trying to get it working again, then I was escalated and the
engineer had me do a couple of other things and then my Mac was bricked. He
was a bit embarrassed and approved a free repair at my local Mac dealer.
Turns out the upgrade detached the fusion drive’s SSD from its Hard Drive.
It turned out well in the end but I don’t want to go through that again.
Regards,
Martin Koob

Why don't you create a dual boot of your mac?
Apple itself supports it and delivers the drivers to do so.
You only need a win10 license

Hi
I need to buy a new desktop PC to be used for LiveCode development including
using the new camera control and the player as I am working on a cross platform
application for Mac and Windows.
I have been developing the application on on a Mac to this point but need to
have the PC for testing and debugging in a Windows environment.
Being a Mac guy I am not sure what I should look for in a PC— processor, speed,
RAM, etc. I bought a cheap desktop PC, an Acer AXC-230 a year or so ago for
that purpose but that is painfully slow. So I don’t want to make that mistake
again.
With the comments on speed problems on Windows in the earlier thread I don’t
want to get something underpowered.
Any suggestions? What are people using?
Thanks in advance.
