[TUTORIAL] GPU Passthrough on Proxmox VE - macOS Monterey (Part. 04x04)

Sorry, I guess I typed the opposite meaning I want to say. Everything is working fine on proxmox 7 (kernel 5.15). However, after upgraded to proxmox 8, there are lots of issues with kernel versions. (passthrough issues or boot loop on macOS) I can only get it working with 5.15 kernel.

I want to know exact working kernel version the Author is using (for passthrough) so that I can upgrade to.

Hi frankmanzhu, I was using version 6.2 of the kernel, i.e. the default stable version delivered with pve version 8.0.

Thank you for getting back, setting the Display to VM Ware unblock the boot process but:
- The noVNC screen proceed to the MacOS desktop.
- The GPU screen blocks in the Proxmox booting screen (Proxmox Logo with Boot Start progress bar in the bottom filled up 100%) -> Attached Screenshot

I attached a screenshot of the 2 graphical devices detected by the OS, I think that the RX6800 is detected but not recognized, am I mistaken?

Again thank you for your time and assistance, I really appreciate it.

Unfortunately, I also encountered the same problem. Do you have a solution? There is no problem with the direct passthrough GPU under Windows, but you will encounter the same error under Mac
 
As I re-read from this post, the author didn’t seem to get the passthrough working at all.

It requires display to set to VMware display?
Guys, the only perfect working solution is what I described above. Use kernel 5.15, all other kernel will have some weird issues. GPU passthrough shouldn’t be an issue, T919 Bluetooth passthrough requires more effort.

1. Boot into macOS and installation. (With VMware display)
2. Modify plist to set the macOS to be Mac Pro. (Not default iMac. Important!) Set display = none and do the passthrough gpu and set boot parameters. Pass through usb devices
3. Once you got that working, next is to pass through pcie bus for Bluetooth and wifi for airdrop and continuity camera etc. This requires 5.15 kernel.

I believe pcie and bt/wifi passthrough only works on kernel 5.15 (which is part of pve7) I started with pve7 and now upgraded to 8.
