tobitronics Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hi guys, I installed my mac at first using TMX tools and then switched to clover (somehow this was easier for me). I would like to add a recovery partition to my system now to use Find my Mac etc. However I find different stories on the internet, some say it is possible (but they don't say how) and others say it is impossible. So: Is this possible? If so, how? Thanks in advance! Specs: Gigabyte H81M-HD3 i5 4440 8GB Ram 120GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobitronics Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 I tried the second link and it worked to enable find my mac, however when I want to boot to it from clover (which recognizes it as a recovery drive) I get this in verbose boot (normal boot also doesn't work). After a few seconds the system shuts down. How can I fix this? Or is the recovery meant to not work and only enable features? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
