Clover General discussion

[Guest ricoc90]

No issues booting here. All kexts are in Other. 

 

EDIT: moved kexts to 10.13, also boots fine. 

 

EDIT2: moved kexts to 10.13, FakeSMC.kext to Other: doesn't boot. Kext Inject Management shows Other folder as being empty.

[Slice]

I understand, it works if 10.13 or in Other but not both.

Will be corrected soon.

Thanks for correction @Slice, however using Legacy r4236 with these folders on my EFI:

 

#First Test (they should to have installed kexts by default)

~ 10.11 becomes 'Other' => with empty kext (I didn't use 'Other' folder, removed. But it suddenly appears on Kext Inject Mgmnt with no kext)

~ 10.13 leaves as it folder name => Also with no kext.

 

#Secondly:

~ 10.11 leaves as it's name => Became empty kext

~ 10.13 renamed to Other => My installed kexts detected here and loaded.

 

So for now, I could only use one folder with "Other" as the name to boot between 10.11. or 10.13.

hello Slice good morning

 

4236 don't solve the issue for me

 

thanks

[Slice]

Thanks all for testing!

I will think about the issue when I return home.

Or may be someone else look into?

Test, please, with commenting out/removing 1 line 4917 in menu.c

AddMenuEntry(&OptionMenu, SubMenuKextInjectMgmt(LastChosenOS));

Test, please, with commenting out/removing 1 line 4917 in menu.c

On pregress, would give report asap.

[Guest ricoc90]

Test, please, with commenting out/removing 1 line 4917 in menu.c

AddMenuEntry(&OptionMenu, SubMenuKextInjectMgmt(LastChosenOS));

Situation:

FakeSMC in 10.13, other kexts in Other.

Kext Injection Management menu shows it correctly,

Booting in Debug shows that only the kexts from Other are being injected.

 

 

[Badruzeus]

Similar to @ricoc90 results, but on my test using r4236 (edited menu.c) I lost the whole "Kext Inject Management" feature from Boot Options Menu.

 

#EDIT: I didn't use 'Other' folder, but only /10.11 & /10.13, seems not to be injected so both OSes never reach the Desktop.

I lost that menu in the boot options too, but it's still there under the selected OS boot options (spacebar)

U mean, Menu Entry details with Space Bar..?

Yes

@slice / @syscl - any more thoughts on reverting the haswell-e changes in 4145/4146?  I'm pretty certain the new code doesn't work for a decent % of systems (I've actually tried it on 3 at this point) whereas the old code does.  Happy to provide the necessary changes against the latest clover rev!

i dont have any problem with my haswell e 5820k

without any xcpm patches, clover does it automatically.

as far as i know, i cant disable those patches with DisableExtCpuXCPM, or is there bootargs that can disable it?

OK, I will consider to add it if it is necessary. But till now I will try to figure out suit patches for him.

@Slice,

 

r4237 works great!

 

 

 

 

Bootlog1.txt with kexts injected from /Other & /10.12.

Bootlog2.txt with kexts injected from /Other, Disabled injection from /10.12 through Kext Management Submenu on chosen volume (Kext Management no longer in Clover Options Main Menu).  

 

IMHO, it makes more sense this way.  If you decide to boot 10.12, you don't need to see kexts in 10.11 folder or 10.13 folder to disable.

 

Edit

Spoke a bit too soon.

 

On selecting the 10.13 volume, 10.13 kext folder appears to be empty in Kext Management Submenu (but it isn't) ---> no kexts injected from 10.13 folder, only from /Other - Bootlog3.txt

 

 

 

 

Thanks Slice...

Using r4237 with these folders on /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/ however:

~ 10.11 => OK, also appears on Kexts Inject Mgmt with it's contents.

~ 10.13 => missing folder

~ Other => OK, but I don't use it for installing any kext.

Thanks.

10.13 missing because you chosen 10.11 system

[Badruzeus]

10.13 missing because you chosen 10.11 system

My bad. OK, thanks for correcting. With 10.13 macHDD selected, under Kexts Inject Mgmt it shows 10.13 folder, but with no installed kext (empty).

Is anyone else having issues with battery indicator in latest clover revisions? 423x > i can't remember which one it started acting up.

Upon booting it just wont show up again, was working 100% fine. I have to unplug and plug then it will show up but it doesnt automatically update either, like if i unplug charger, the indicator still says its charging.

@Sherlocks ?

[Funky frank]

Will be the EFI partition contents deleted while APFS conversion?

[Kynyo]

EFI partition it will remain as it is, untouched.

4237 works here  10.12

Not work 10.13 /10.7 /10.6

 

4222 works all the way

 

EDIT 1**

4237 works in Other for 10.13 /10.12

Not for 10.7 /10.6 FakeSMC  no good

[Funky frank]

Ok what version works for 10.12 AND 10.13 without lot of extra configuration (10.12.6 currently works nicely)?

 

PS Cannot find the recent nvidia web drivers thread, search is disabled  So I have a GT1050, should I install the 10.13 webdriver just before the update? Will it work with 1050 on High Sierra?
