Help with Clover - Hide & Rename Partitions


26 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Can somebody give me some help to hide my partitions and rename the Windows 7 UEFI and Mac OS X UEFI boot titles? Ive been reading the wiki but really none of my edits have done anything. The only thing I've managed to do is hide the Legacy partitions.

 

Ive attached my config.plist, and i have the partition UUIDs i want to hide. Ive tried using the Hide Key and the custom Entries Key but no luck.

 

Also my SSD has the OS X installation as the first partition, OS X as 2nd, Win 7 as 3rd. Is it possible to hide the OS X installer even if I've installed Clover to that partition? Ideally i just want to see OS X and Win 7 partitions.

 

Also i can't get the timeout and default partition selector to work, any help appreciated.

Here is the preboot.log

 

Edit

Managed to hide the partitions using the GUID. The Clover Wiki is wrong, UUID does not work! Also i set DefaultVolume to EFI so that it selects my Windows 7 partition to boot by default with a 5 second timeout. I guess this will need changing when i rename the partition.

 

Now lastly I'm trying to work out how the rename the "Boot Microsoft EFI from EFI" and "Boot Mac OS X from Mac OS X" to something that sounds better. Ideally Boot Windows 7 and Boot Mac OS X.

 

Any help here? I modified my custom boot entry with the correct GUID (previously used UUID) but that didn't work.

If you want to get rid of the "Boot … from …" message just use "FullTitle" instead of "Title". Also, you might want to install the RC scripts to get the nvram variables, required for iCloud and other services.

 

EDIT: looks like you're missing a key for custom entries:

 

In the posted config you've got GUI->Entries->… and it should be GUI->Custom->Entries->…

 

EDIT2: if you do install the RC scripts you'll need the IgnoreNVRAMBoot key to keep Windows 7 as your default boot entry, else the nvram will change it to the last booted OS.

Thanks for the tips, will work out the iCloud stuff after fixing the renaming. So i tried this but no luck

 

I get this in the preboot.log

Sure, I've attached them for you.

 

I think this is the problem

It sees the partition i want to rename, but skips it for some reason.

Try not to hide partitions with "bootx64.efi" and "windows", and that "self path" error is to avoid duplicated entries but I'm not sure why it thinks it's duplicated.

 

And you should set the default boot volume not by its name, as there are several "EFI" partitions, but by its GUID which is unique.

I think its duplicated maybe because there is a left over Windows 8 boot loader left on one of my hard disks (Volume 8). Windows 7 is on Volume 11.

Tried removing the "bootx64.efi" and "windows" and used the GUID rather than "EFI" but still the same.

 

​Is the syntax correct for my custom entry?

The syntax is correct, we just need to figure out why Clover thinks it's duplicated. Try adding Type=Windows to the custom windows entry and the following code to hide all EFI partitions: 

<dict>
<key>Disabled</key>
<true/>
<key>Hidden</key>
<true/>
<key>Type</key>
<string>Other</string>
<key>Volume</key>
<string>EFI</string>
</dict>

This is from my system:

3:412  0:000  Custom entry 3 "\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi" "-s -h" (7) 0x0 matching "GUID_number" ...

3:412  0:000     Checking volume "EFI" (PcieRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1F,0x2)\VenHw ... match!
3:415  0:002  found PcieRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1F,0x2)\VenHw...\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
3:622  0:000  skipped path `PcieRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1F,0x2)\VenHw…\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.efi` because it is a volume and type match for custom entry 6!

So Clover adds the custom entry for windows and detects the loader as well but skips it because it matches the type of the custom EFI entry I've created.

 

Clover Configurator can help with all this custom things.

I started with th Clover Configurator, but that seemed to bork my EFI partition and i had to start all over with OSX and Win 7 installations. So for now ill stick to the manual editing, ill have a go with adding the Windows type and report back.

 

I dont want to hide all EFI partitions as then both Windows 8 and Windows 7 loaders will get hidden, no? For that reason i just hide Windows 8 by GUID. I have WIndows 8 and 7 installed as UEFI as well as Yosemite as UEFI. This is using the Clover UEFI Bootloader only too.

I have that custom entry and can boot Windows 7 from the EFI partition just fine with this:

 

<dict>

<key>FullTitle</key>

<string>Boot Windows 7 64bits</string>

<key>Type</key>

<string>Windows</string>

<key>Volume</key>

<string>5148B030-E155-4B37-A23C-74EF4CAFDACA</string>

</dict>

<dict>

<key>Disabled</key>

<true/>

<key>Hidden</key>

<true/>

<key>Type</key>

<string>Other</string>

<key>Volume</key>

<string>EFI</string>

</dict>

 

And the log says:

3:412  0:000  Custom entry 3 "\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi" "-s -h" (7) 0x0 matching "5148B030-E155-4B37-A23C-74EF4CAFDACA" ...

And when Clover looks for loaders:

3:649  0:000  skipped path `PcieRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1F,0x2)\VenHw(CF31FAC5-C24E-11D2-85F3-00A0C93EC93B,82)\HD(1,GPT,5148B030-E155-4B37-A23C-74EF4CAFDACA,0x28,0x64000)\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.efi` because it is a volume and type match for custom entry 6!

If you use Clover Configurator just to edit the plist then there's no risk at all. Still I don't know how it could bork your EFI partition as it doesn't do much.

Ok i put Type Windows, and now Windows 7 entry works!

I will try change OS X partition now. Odd thing is, the timeout still displays Boot Microsoft EFI from EFI, its only when i move the cursor does it change to "Windows 7".

 

Edit working perfect now! Thanks for the help. Now i will try to fix iCloud and NVRAM.

Ive attached the final config.plist and preboot.log for others.

 

 

If i install Clover to my current OS X Partition with the RC Scripts, will that not destroy the Windows 7 boot loader files? How should i go about doing this?

The RC scripts will only save the NVRAM content as /nvram.plist then when Clover boots it will search for this file and restore its content into the NVRAM. It won't touch the windows bootloader at all, but it will override Clover's default boot volume to the OSX partition (enables the Startup Disk prefpane), fixed by adding the IgnoreNVRAMBoot key.

EDIT: by restoring the NVRAM at boot Clover might pick up different values for some functions (GUI->Theme and RtVariables), overriding the ones in the config.plist. If that happens, just use Clover's prefpane to set them to what you want or by terminal:

sudo nvram variable_name=value

For example:

sudo nvram Clover.Theme=YosemiteLogin

What i meant was, when i install the RC Scripts with Clover Installation PKG, it will wipe my current EFI partition, which will also destroy the Microsoft Boot folder and cause Win 7 to fail to boot? Currently the Clover bootloader installed to the OSX Installation files partition on my SSD, not my actual OSX partition.

 

Is it possible to install the RC Scripts without installing the bootloader again?

It is possible to add the scripts manually but I don't know exactly how and I wouldn't recommend doing so either as it will complicate updating Clover.

 

But how did you install Clover in the first place? Is this "OSX Installation" partition in the same disk as Windows? Upload a DarwinDumper report of your disks and boot loaders to see how it's all organized.

 

The installer will only work on the EFI partition of the disk you point it to. For example if in the Clover installer you select this "OSX Installation" partition as destination then it will touch the EFI partition of that disk only, the rest will be left untouched. Anyway, if you don't trust the installer you could try unplugging the Windows disk to make sure it won't be tampered with.

 

And why don't you install Clover to the EFI partition in your OSX disk? That, I believe would be the ideal place for it.

I have a single SSD with these partitions

 

EFI - Clover bootlaoder

OS X Yosemite Installer - This is just the OSX installer (10GB)

OS X Yosemite - Actual Yosemite installation (40GB)

Windows 7 (100GB)

 

The Clover bootloader was installed from my other SSD which had Mavericks installed on it. And Clover was installed to the "OS X Yosemite Installer" partition.

 

So when i installed Windows 7 i believe the bootloader files installed to the EFI partition tied to "OS X Yosemite Installer" partition.

Now if i install Clover to "OS X Yosemite" partition wont that just break Windows 7? This is why id rather not install Clover to my "OS X Yosemite" partition, then ill have 2 Clover installations on 2 partitions on the same SSD?

 

Or have i misunderstood and the EFI partition is tied to a disk and not a partition?

 

The EFI on WDC WD2002FYPS-01U1B0 can be ignored, this is the old Win 8 drive.

There can be only one EFI partition per GPT disk. In your SSD you have Clover and the windows bootloader in the same EFI partition but each on their own folder (look at the list below), so I don't think you'll lose the Windows loader after running the installer because right now Clover is the one booting your disk and handles the windows loader just fine.

/EFI/Boot/BootX64.efi(Clover r2747)
/EFI/Boot/BootIA32.efi(Clover r2747)
/EFI/Clover/CloverX64.efi(Clover r2747)
/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi (Windows loader)

In theory, if you install Clover selecting Yosemite as target and checking the "Install for UEFI boot" option it should:

1- mount the EFI partition from the Yosemite disk (disk0s1)

2- copy the respective files in the CLOVER and BOOT folders

3- install the scripts and/or prefpane to the target partition

4- unmount the partition

 

The rest should be left untouched, be it the Microsoft folder or any MBR-PBR code the disk may contain.

 

Anyway, after all that explanation I've got bad news for you. Sadly this is all pointless for now because Clover's RC scripts won't work properly in Yosemite DP2. There's a workaround but I haven't tested it myself. Take a look here.

So clovers RC Scripts are working now, but it defaults to Mac OSX bootloader entry rather than my Win 7 GUID. I think thats because of the nvram.plist being present. Any way to get round this?

Also still my iMessage doesnt work =/

How are you people getting the GUIDs of the partitions? Wasted 30mins looking and searching for how to hide the Recovery partition, and not one mention about how to find the damned GUID. Can't get very far without the first step, why is such an important step omitted from every single guide that pops up on Google. All I'm trying to do is get the GUID of the recovery partition..................... Clover makes life SO INFINITELY difficult, regardless of how well it functions

The GUIDs are in Clover's logs, they're detailed in the volume detection section after this message:

found xx volumes with blockIO

Example with the GUID in bold:

 

3:118  0:000   0. Volume:

3:119  0:000    PcieRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1F,0x2)\VenHw(CF31FAC5-C24E-11D2-85F3-00A0C93EC93B,80)\HD(2,GPT,F6BDE7CF-0200-4231-803A-5AEC5D747368,0x64028,0xDDFAC40)
 
 

On DefaultVolume you can see the usual ways of pointing to partitions:

  • Volume Name: The name of the volume. E.g. Macintosh.
  • GUID: Globally Unique ID of the volume shown in Clover's boot, preboot or debug log. E.g. 57272A5A-7EFE-4404-9CDA-C33761D0DB3C.
  • Part of Device Path: Also shown in Clover's logs. E.g. HD(1,GPT,57272A5A-7EFE-4404-9CDA-C33761D0DB3C,0x800,0xFF000).
