Recent APTIO errors under CLOVER - Little Change

[Korred]

So I'm *sure* something change, little just breaks because it feels like it one day.

 

System:

OSX 10.10.1

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H

i7 Ivy Bridge

32GB Ram

MSI GeForce 780GTX Something-er-other

Using nvidia web driver .02f01

 

Was running Clover from an EFI partition with minimal things installed, was happy as a clam. I believe I was on 2957-2976 (something in there, is there a way to check? I still have a backup of the old EFI partition).

 

Known changes:

* I had recently changed out my mouse drivers (switched from steermouse to Logitech's drivers)

* Tried ##### 7.1.1 update to try and get my ALC898 working + trim (don't really need the ALC, I have a USB DAC I use instead)

** This installed ALC, AppleHDA, and the Trim Patch. I already had the latest FakeSMC installed in Clover KEXT area so didn't have it install to SLE

 

Upon reboot I started to get:

OsxAptioFixDrv: Starting overrides for \System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi
efiboot loaded from device: Acpi(PNP....)

(This is a snippet from someone else's error report though mine looks almost identical).

I tried most of the following:

* nvda_drv=0, slide=0 and other combinations of boot flags

* Removing nvidia driver

* aptio 2 test 3

 

After doing a few things I threw in an old installation of OSX so I could properly install the newest clover (at the time of writing r3050) to the EFI partition. After doing this and booting with a variety of options I finally got the system to start from the EFI partition without having to use any other USB loaders. 

-f -v slide=0 dart=0 nvda_drv=1 kext-dev-mode=1

Upon first boot I didn't have the nvidia drivers installed, I installed them, restarted smoothly and things were working. I installed the logitech mouse drivers again and it asked for a reboot, upon reboot I started to get the same errors as above again. Changing / tuning the fields doesn't work.

 

Things that don't work / work:

* DOESN'T: Booting clover from a USB selecting my partition (don't have FakeSMC on the usb so I'm not surprised this doesn't work, gets stood up by DSMOS)

* WORKS: Using a USB Chameleon loader and booting my OSX partition.. 

 

I'm at a complete loss as to what to try / do / diagnose to discover what I might be missing about my Clover configuration that will help me return to the way it was.

 

Other notes:

My clover install USB disk always boots successfully which is running r3050 in MBR method. I have considered switching back from EFI to MBR I'm just not sure if I have to do anything other than rerun the installer and move the /Vol/EFI/EFI folder out of the way.. tips?
