kosakgroove Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 This tutorial must be for Chameleon and Enoch users. clover automagically creates the RecoveryHD if you use the createinstallmedia method to make usb, The recoveryhd that clover makes works flawlessly, myself having reinstalled OSX from there, without problems, you just need to boot it with injected kexts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
