Clover General discussion

[vector sigma]

ah! No xar ??? This is going to be problematic. I think it expect to use the pbzx instead on newer OSes. The big problem is that without xar Installer.app will not be able to run the pkg.  If this is confirmed in the final release ....this is the death of the pkg, unless we sobstitute xar with pbzx, but in any cases compatibility with 10.10 and older (?) is lost.

hi slice.

pkg build will be broken with this message.

 

i'm not sure this issue in only 10.15.4 beta1.

 

        # Create the package

        (cd "${packagePath}/Temp" && xar -c -f "${packagePath}/../${packageName}.pkg" --compression none .)

old OS doesn't matter because old packages work on old OS

I am using Clover r3270 for Snow leopard and its the best package for snow

[LAbyOne]

Hi guys, need your advice on this...

i just witnessed a curious thing, on clover 5103,

( it was a long time since i used resetnvram) but trying to do so, pressing F11 did nothing at all...

don't think its normal behaviour now not restart clover after pressing the key, what could be the trouble?

thx

[Slice]

Reset NVRAM and restart computer are two different things.

You may press letter "R" for Restart if you want it. But Clear NVRAM doesn't mean you need restart.

[chris1111]

I lost this on the last compilation

Thanks @Slice

for your explanation, but that was the usual behaviour i've always experienced after clearing nvram, (press F11 and the loader restart)

My question was essentially due to another circumstance, as i'm still in clover, i've been also, as many others, testing OC from a usb device, and every time i restart the machine (booting from clover) it keeps the same arguments used in OC. Hence my question about the clear nvram thing...

[Slice]

No problem. Press F11 and then press R.

Same here (of course).

Means that the release r5103 at github is older than 29 days ago (before the fix) and in fact my compilation from yesterday works very fine.

Last commit v5103 works fine for me too.

If I remember well :

  - if you don't create a .VolumeLabel.txt, you won't have this message.

  - if you create a .VolumeLabel.txt on your clover partition, but the first character is #, you won't have this message.

 

So this IS optional, even though I'm convince the next time you'll lost an hour because you didn't realise you were still booting on your internal HDD instead of the USB stick (for example), and you'll spend time trying to understand why your modification are NOT taken, you'll regret not have this message :-).

By the way, just reassure me, each time you try a new clover version or a kext modification, you are trying from a different clover than your usual one, right ?

Thank you for these explanations. I only answered other members. Users have different needs, this solution may suit them in this case.

it does not matter where you boot from clover gets confused if more then one efi on the machine.

i can tell bios to boot clover usb when main internal EFI is corrupt and clover not boot at all untill corruption is removed from internal efi then i can boot the usb. so even though clover says booted from my USB volume in bottom right corner. clover is still pulling data from main hdd efi. you might not normally notice if your main efi has no issues booting or does not exist.

How can you address a "corruption" of any kind to Clover?
