mrjayviper Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 can someone please tell me the use of apfsdriverloader.efi? In the past, I manually copy apfs.efi to the clover drivers folder. Not sure how apfsdriverloader would affect this. thank you.

If you want to use it, delete apfs.efi and install this file with Clover package Installer. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/284656-clover-general-discussion/page/724/#findComment-2646553 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joni_78 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Stupid question about Clover. If there is a option set as 'NO' in default Clover Config.plist, can it be deleted? Or could Clover assume that something is 'YES' if it is missing on Config.plist? I would like to delete all options in plist that I've set as 'NO' for simplicity.

But if you delete this line, then legacy entry will shown.

mrjayviper Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) I got a board without built-in NVMe port in the motherboard. Has anyone been able to use a PCIe-based NVMe and uses a USB drive/frontend with clover so the NVMe can be use as an OS drive? So the motherboard is booting off the USB stick and then clover will then be booting off the NVMe drive. seems like it's going to work but wanting to know if anyone has used/tested such a setup. Thanks a lot!

LockDown Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) @mrjayviper some boards can boot nvme w/o having a physical slot, check (board manual). if yours doesnt have the feature, then usb will work too as your primary boot device for your nvme.

I did test again using ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi from r4769 (SourceForge release), and it gives no Apfs related debug logs. A same result with ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi v2.0.5 (github release). I was referring to this commit, but I could be wrong if this is the cause. I've reported this here on November 7th with r4741. @ellaosx Is this debug logs you meant? I guess, it is from ApfsDriverLoader built with ebuild.sh --ext-co (or buildclover script) contains latest change from AppleSupportPackage (since, the build script will pull it). 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/284656-clover-general-discussion/page/724/#findComment-2649112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
