Hi everyone- I didn't want to hijack another kernel panic thread but this one is an odd one after reading most of other issues on kernel panics online.
Currently have a mac pro 4,1->5,1 with dual 2.93ghz 6core cpu. I was having software issues upgrading from sierra since the machine was never updated for years. I got a new WD 1 TB HDD and installed a fresh sierra and upgraded all the way to Mojave. Bootrom confirmed was 141.0.0.0.Everything worked fine.
I decided to upgrade my cpu and swapped to the 3.46ghz de lidded duals last evening. Minus the red lights and rejigging the heat sink etc., i got to the apple logo screen but it never got to the desktop screen.
So, every keyboard option to get into safe mode or recovery ends up in a kernel panic. Even the NVRAM didn't help. Pressing Option key shows the HDD and when i select it, I get the kernel crash screen(see links to image below). I had the usb sierra installer and even tried that and same thing. I shifted the ram and made sure all is fine. My last resort was going back to the old cpus but thought I would check before i do. Right now, the only thing connected is my cinema display, my GPU 7970 amd, the ITB hdd with Mojave.
I see in the kernel panic text about MAC OSX not set. not sure why.
See attached images.
