I am kind of wondering the same thing myself, should I install Clover onto my APFS partition of my main SSD drive (As I usually do when testing new releases etc)?

 

BIG thanks to fusion71au and SavageAUS for clearing up custom entries too!

 

 

Well, if you have a spare SSD, I would suggest installing it there, in case things go south. I don't, so I just split my SSD in half, and installed Hi Sierra (APFS) on one side, with Sierra on the other.

I did the same thing, made a 50GB partition on my boot drive.

 

Did you then Install Clover into High Sierra to get the control panel etc working?

 

 

To be honest, I didn't even notice there was no Clover pref pane in High Sierra until you mentioned it. :))LOL  Well, no, I didn't reinstall Clover. I totally forgot about that. But...I guess you could...?

 

So I guess it's a good thing I asked where does Clover put its files when you're installing it on APFS. :)) That's good to know. Cause now I know I have to move them manually.

 

So, is this something expected with APFS? Will we always need to move Clover from Root to EFI? Or is it just a feature that's not ready yet and will be done in future versions? I'm only curious. :)

We can only hope that the clever devs will find a way to solve the AFPS + Clover + ESP problem.

I cannot get past the ++++++++++++++++ right after the boot 0 and clover Gui.   Sierra 10.12.5 is pre-installed, clover in EFI for 3 legacy PCs, all LGA 775's Core2 Quads, gigabyte GA-G41, EP45-UD3P no issues booting but the Asus Maxiumus Forumla X38 chipset is the one that will not get past the ++++++++++.  I am assuming once you see the plus's the bootefi should load then the kernel correct?   So it has to be something with the bootefi.  I tried placing from the OEM folder where I keep the 3 different PCs and placed the Asus back to the root of EFI/kext and ACPI/patched and still nothing.  I have the latest clover sourceforge version 4097.  Maybe I can try a later version if anyone has already compiled one link?

 

I don't know how to collect any logs if it cannot get past BootEFI and other suggestions?

 

Thanks!

You have no choice but to install it on the volume you want to boot, but because APFS creates a bunch of logical volumes from one physical, the files need to be moved until the installer is updated to get the original physical volume to determine the disk's ESP. Also, awesome that I'm the one that said what to do with custom entries but didn't even get a shout out......

The installer needs updated to detect APFS partitions and determine the physical volume to determine the ESP.

You can't boot 10.12+ with a Core2 that does not have SSE4.1. So you need a Q8200 or better, or QX9650 or better. Or you need to use legacy kernel, if it's even around for 10.12... Not sure... Anyone?

I though it might be because of that to but I changed my PlatformSupport.plist to include support for MacPro3,1, I don't think the kernel ever loads.  I can see the Plus's start but before you see the boot64x.efi or boot.efi I don't remember, within that boot.efi is a string about the boot drive,  it never gets to that point, and it is right after that the kernel loads, I just never get to the point of seeing either one of that parts just stuck on +++++++++++.  The other two LGA 775 boards have slower quad cores and they boot perfectly fine under the modified PlatformSupport.plist so its something else!  I  will have to troubleshoot to see if its clover on this piece of hardware or not.  I will start out by booting via USB then see if an El Capitan installer will start with Clover 4097 if it does then I am guessing it may have something to do with the combination of Sierra/Clover and this Asus motherboard.

Well what's the debug.log have if you enable debug with Boot/Debug=true?

 

 

Sorry apianti, I guess I didn't read far enough back in the thread!

 

BIG thanks!

 

Haha, I was just being a smartass.

If anyone is interested, here are some DarwinDumps for 2017 MacBook Pros (MacBookPro14,1/14,2/14,3).

 

...and some other 2017 Macs (iMac18,3 with Radeon Pro 580 and MacBook10,1).

Thank you so much:)

I enabled all the possible debug sections in the Clover Config, this won't work because it only gets to the Clover GUI and then starts to boot with the ++++++++, but never loads this part which is before the kernel boot below which never happens so not sure if a log will generate if it cannot get past below?

 

efiboot loaded from device Acpi (PNP0A08,0)/Pci (1F12)/SATA(0,0)/HD(Part1,SigFB80A2E1-C0D7-425B-B471-F5260F9370E7)

boot file path: \System\library\CoreServices\boot.efi

................................................................................................

root device uuid is 'E216AA4C-001B-A249-30A9CEE752D3'

.................................................................................................

 

Then the kernel boots next but not on this Asus MB.  I thought possibly the SSD drive might be the problem but proved to myself that is not the case same thing happens on a flash drive or regular SATA drive.

There's no log past that point as when you get that line of plus signs, that is when the kernel is booting. Clover is gone as exit boot services was called. I meant is there anything else in the log that might give an idea of why it's not working. Are you not using a boot fix (like AptioFix)? You should just post the debug.log.

If you pressed F2 in Clover GUI then /EFI/CLOVER/misc/preboot.log was created. Upload it, please!

hmmm ... for some reason I can't load config.plist anymore, even with EFI mounted. I can open it in Wrangler but in CConfigurator everything is blank? I can create enteries like SMBIOS os thats working ok. Any ideas?

Seems like a corrupt config.plist.

 

Thats it, thanks. I had tried a previous version but it must have been corrupt too. :)

Wait, "CloverGrowerPro" is still supported and it also has "src" folder compared to "Build_Clover.command"..?

Sorry, this one seems new to me.

Does not create one.   I'm guessing the kernel never starts.

 

This has nothing to do with it, F2 is in the clover GUI for preboot.log, debug.log is output no matter what. The log is created way before the kernel boots. I'm guessing you installed directly to the HFS+ partition? You can only write to VFAT volumes during boot, so you need to either have it on your ESP or use a USB.

Its true its on the HFS+ partition, I'll grab the SSD drive which has clover installed onto the ESP and try again.  Is the preboot.log, the debug.log you are referring to or do I need to enable the debug in clover config to generate an output log?

Find attached both Preboot and Debug logs, Thanks!

 

I updated my signature I had swapped it for a Q8400 and forgot about that and the other Quad is as you said the Q9650 and both of these support SSE4.1.  Was the debug log helpful, I could not see any warning or error that stood out.
