Ok. Corrected.

Ok, worked.

[Jief_Machak]

Thanks for giving me the nvram.plist. It allows me to quickly find where the problem was.

 

My debug.log still have line endings. Strange. I did modified something about cr/lf are emitted to the console. I thought it would remove the cr/lf, leaving just the lf in debug.log. Which didn't seem to be a problem as it's standard mac. But no, my debug.log still has \r\n.

 

Could you open your debug.log in hex editor and tell what char do you have at the end of the line ?

New panic on new computer.

if ( tagList == NULL ) panic("TagStruct::setDictValue() : tagList == NULL ");

All previous debug.log have 0D 0A line ending as EDK2 set as rule.

[Jief_Machak]

Ok, wrong panic on empty dict. Empty are allowed ? Doing it now.

[Jief_Machak]

Done : empty dict allowed.

 

I've also committed a guard in XTheme::ClearScreen() for when UGAWidth == 0 || UGAHeight == 0. I also notice that the graphic banner is displayed when in text mode (I didn't know that graphic and text mode can mix...).

UGAWidth == 0 or UGAHeight == 0 can happen is GOP and UGADraw are unavailable. Which, most likely almost never happen... But can happen on my virtual config.

[Jief_Machak]

I've committed the next refactor to plist. Working here, but proof is that my config is NOT a great test... Let me know.

 

EDIT : bug in kexttopatch, I think... Wait...

Are you trying Big Sur ?

I'm not yet working on that, because I can't download Big Sur. So any commit you see from me for now won't bring new fetures.

No need to try Big Sur at the moment, I think. Clover's not ready. You'll know when it is from this forum...

What is it?

0:132  0:000  Clover started with option to boot b from E

 

[Jief_Machak]

Wrong cast, I think. To test, I must enter GetBootFromOption(). It's only executed if (*(UINT32*)SelfLoadedImage->LoadOptions == CLOVER_SIGN). How do I do that ?

But you can test, should be ok.

[yapan4]

Just for info - my EFI folder, maybe someone will find it useful. I did not notice any bugs in this version. Only icon on screenshot (in /misc folder), lost a long time ago

Clover 5121 works well on my Z68, Z97, Z170 and Z370 hacks

[Cristina89]

v5121 Catalina

 

1) does not work Entries:

<key>Hidden</key>
                    <true/>

2) No boot Recovery

 

Replace v5120

 

1) OK

 

2) OK

[Matgen84]

Test Release r5121 build from source:

 

• Mojave (my IvyBridge config): Hidden Entries works via GUI section config.plist. I can boot Recovery partition
• Catalina (my Z390 config): Hidden Entries works via GUI section config.plist. I can boot Recovery partition

 

I hope that Clover will be compatible with Big Sur, soon. Thanks for developers efforts

@Cristina89,

Yeah, a custom entry to hide Recovery HD like below
 

Spoiler

	<key>GUI</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Custom</key>
		<dict>
			<key>Entries</key>
			<array>
				<dict>
					<key>Disabled</key>
					<false/>
					<key>FullTitle</key>
					<string>Recovery HD</string>
					<key>Hidden</key>
					<true/>
					<key>Ignore</key>
					<false/>
					<key>InjectKexts</key>
					<true/>
					<key>NoCaches</key>
					<false/>
					<key>Type</key>
					<string>OSXRecovery</string>
				</dict>
			</array>
		</dict>

 

no longer works in r5121.

Easiest work around is to remove the custom entry from your config.plist and just include "Recovery" in the "Hide" section of GUI...

 

	<key>GUI</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Hide</key>
		<array>
			<string>Recovery</string>
		</array>

 

Main GUI with hidden Recovery HD...

Unhide Recovery HD by pressing <F3>...
