OC can boot from main macOS partition as well

I don't think that's true. I have to double-check, but I think OC boot only on Preboot. You just don't know it.

May be set in config.plist something like Boot->AlwaysPreboot=YES/NO ?

Boot on main is not supported and doesn't work anymore. Probably some hard coding in boot.efi. Let just disabled it for BS. We'll leave as it was for previous version.

In theory copying the OC patches into a Clover config should work but I've not had any success. "Base" becomes "Procedure" and the rest are self explanatory but it always fails to start booting.

I found something maybe cause failed to boot Big Sur in my Ryzen 1700X hackintosh.

The following patches can boot Catalina 10.15.7 and its log showed errors:

I will very soon update Clover to show Preboot and NOT main partitions for BigSur.

Make sure you didn't force hide Preboot in config.plist.

No, I never hide, preboot. Because I think I will definitely need it in the future, there is no need to hide.

Hello Guys,

Do you know how to solve this error?
I am days trying to install BS Beta 9 through the flashdrive but I always stop at this error. I've tried OpenCore 0.6.1 and 0.6.2 not work, now I'm trying from clover r5123 to r5125.
Does anyone know what I need to modify in Clover to get through?

Note 1: I already tried with FakeSMC instead of VirtualSMC. I've tried copying the Quircs from sample.plist without modifying. I modified the Quircs like a Sanity Checker. I always stuck in the same place.

Note 2: My debug.log is always getting empty. I do not know what happened.

Note 3: I have Catalina working well.

My EFI: EFI Vinicius P. Miranda.zip

MB: Rampage IV Extreme x79
CPU: Intel i7 3930k Sandy Bridge-E

Oh, it might of course be that it boots pre-boot behind the scenes, I wouldn't notice any difference, didn't mean to sound arrogant :blush:

I can't remember who asked but ill post here anyway.

This is my EFI for Catalina on my X570 AMD Ryzen 5 3600.

 

Clover-Cat.zip

Please test my converted new patch which maybe working for you at Big Sur too.

It's Preboot, APFS never supported main partition boot (I heard Apple does this under special circumstances, but never saw any proof), i.e. you may or may not be lucky. Both Startup Disk and bless hide the Preboot situation, it's an implementation detail not relevant to the (Mac) user

Yes, I think it is. It's Preboot, APFS. I can feel it. I tried Partition Harddisk Guide Format, it could not be installed. Only APFS format is required to install successfully.

tested fully functional on mojave and catalina 
big sur, however, does not even start; my idea is that as soon as they fix the MatchOS then it will work properly

Also, continue the work, I came up with the idea (to be verified well) that Limit corresponds to Clover's RangeFind

if you want to try, on my X570 they work

config-CATA_MOJ_26.plist.zip - not tested

config-CATA_BS_38.plist.zip - boots Catalina & Big Sur to a point - see picture. 

config-CATA_BS_29.plist.zip - not tested - next test

EDIT- I left it on the above screen longer and it finally booted big sur!

Also WiFi is not working.

with Clover 5125. I just need to work out what’s causing all the audio text and the BYS3 stall.

Simple NVRAM reset fixed the above and boots fast!

@iCanaro TYVM! @Jief_Machak & @Slice Great work to bring us AMD users into the Clover world.

 

Nothing on my config changed except for the quoted patches (config-CATA_BS_38.plist.zip)

@Download-Fritz , @naiclub: Prior to beta 10, I tested booting my build (haswell GA-Z97-HD3) in BS using clover 5123, selecting in clover GUI the Big Sur partition (Preboot was hidden) and it worked well. I configured it based on an EFI posted by a colleague (the build was a Z87) in the pre-release Big Sur thread. And he also posted his working clover EFI under beta 10 but I haven’t updated mine to see if I can boot from main partition. Maybe not being able to boot from main partition is affecting some systems. In my case, it appears that Apple changed something in beta 10 and I did not figure out right way what is now precluding me from booting beta10 through clover 5125 selecting the Main partition instead of Preboot which is the case now.  Any thoughts about that?

@Slice @Jief_Machak

I confirm what @jlrycm say: even r5125 latest commit can boot no more the main partition. It was  possible on Beta 9. Now,  Preboot is mandatory to boot Big Sur as @Download-Fritz wrote.

@everyone. As far as I know, there is NO special processing when it's a main partition or not. For Clover it's just a partition that contains an .efi, so let's boot it.

Nothing is made in Clover to make a main partition bootable or not. That's why I said that it was an Apple change. No commit, either old ones or new ones will change that.

But I'm doing now is to hide main BS partition. That's all.

Exactly.

@jlrycm Please read what you quoted. Booting the main partition is not supported. If it worked before, nice that you had luck, but if now it doesn't, Apple does and will not care.

For example, in Catalina, I first installed the preboot which was to appear after the file copy process successfully.

From mojave to Bigsur, I have seen that pre-boot process all over again because I used opencore a while ago. Before coming to Clover

Voici une version qui corrige MatchOS CloverX64-2020-10-19-19-09-31-2d124e4-dirty-jief.zip 

Faites-moi savoir si cela fonctionne, alors je l'engagerai.

 

boot with the latest CloverX64-2020-10-19-19-09-31-2d124e4-dirty-jief OK loads the DSDT here on my HP Envy Recline where I tested it has some points that are still not 100%

1 - with this file it takes more time to enter the graphical interface Clover!

2 - attempt to install Beta 10 is in gray screen with the mouse pointer is just that

3 - installation of the betas all until 9 I can pass the first phase, restart and in the second phase at the time that there should be the 29 minute discount, it just restarts and always stays on it without showing any kernel panic, the same happens with OpenCore!

 

Thanks for the work
