Clover General discussion

FWIW this is the essence of my build clover script with xcode

 

EDK2DIR="/opt/Source/edk2"

CLOVERDIR="${EDK2DIR}"/Clover

EBUILD_OPTIONAL_ARGS="-t XCODE8 -fr"

 

git --git-dir=${CLOVERDIR}/.git -C ${CLOVERDIR} pull --force --recurse-submodules

 

cd ${CLOVERDIR}

 

source ./edksetup.sh

./ebuild.sh $EBUILD_OPTIONAL_ARGS 2>&1 | grep -v Werror

unzip or unpkg clover 5125 to update your efi drivers

install OpenRuntime.efi

& you don't need DataHubDxe.efi, AptioMemoryFix-64.efi, AptioMemoryFix.efi now

What about ocquirks.efi, do we still need it?

no, since 5124

 

but I guess Clover (5124+) ignores that now even if people don't delete it.

I think git pull https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/OpenCorePkg under CloverBootloader folder should be fine dude

I have updated 11.01, have to go through OC only, can't update via clover V.5126, why is that? Can someone please tell me

Hi @STLVNUB Have a nice day

As usual, you have to make a <DIR>

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/CloverBootloader.git <DIR>

To update and build new Clover: use Buildme.sh script inside cloverbootloader directory.This script can update cloverbootloader and OC modules. Of build Clover and make a pkg.
That's all 

[Andres ZeroCross]

Maybe this is a stupid questions, 

But, how did you all install CLOVER to Big Sur??

I always fail install clover.pkg in Big Sur,, I always use manual Copy files.

No problem with Catalina

[Andres ZeroCross]

And one thing,,

OpenCore has quirck namely "IgnoreInvalidFlexRatio",

Some Lenovo Notebook need this quirk (I have found this case in Lenovo X250 and X240).

Same booter config with Clover just stuck at "end random seed xxxxxx / BS Exit services" but in OpenCore need to enable this quirk to bypass the "end randomseed/BS Exit services" log.

But CLOVER doesn't have this quirck,,

Clover has this quirk since the first version. It was developed by bcc9 in 2009 for Chameleon and used in Clover without any quirks.

Kp shows that the cause is the BrcmPatchRAM3. Make sure you have the newest version all of your kexts, also make sure you use the correct ones for your Bluetooth. (BrcmPatchRAM3 and BrcmFirmwareData)

 

I'm using BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext, BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext, BrcmNonPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmPatchRAM3.kext on Clover r5122.

Switching BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext with BrcmFirmwareData.kext results in the same kpanic.

 

I even tried to remove all the Brcm kexts but then booting halts on prohibited sign with scrambled text.

I've only been running a manual copy for a long time.
But actually putting the procedure by hand so you don't have a problem installing from any macOS, that would be a good idea.
Have you tried installing Clover using Clover App???

what made the difference from me was putting in OTHER the top 3 kexts to start hacks

You should use only BrcmBluetoothInjector, BrcmFirmwareData and BrcmPatchRAM3 if they're in Clover/kexts. BrcmFirmwareRepo is only for L/E. 

 

Also I can't really see the texts correctly but for me it saying "Still waiting for root device" That means the system can't see your internal drives. 

 

Here I made you a new EFI. 

Deleted unused kexts:

- CpuTscSync.kext (I think it's do nothing for you)

- HWPEnabler.kext (not needed)

- BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext (wrong, replaced with BrcmFirmwareData.kext)

- BrcmNonPatchRAM2.kext (wrong, use BrcmPatchRAM3 only)

 

Added new ones, also added CtlnaAHCIPort.kext for your internal drives, not sure if it's needed or not, I did that because you had "Still waiting for root device" error which is most likely because of an unsupported chipset and your drives aren't recognised.

 

Clover is now v5126 so CLOVERX64.efi is replaced with the new one

 

your config.plist have lot's of unused variables or unnecessary changes, so I modified mine instead, but the old one is also included (config_old.plist)

- In your "new" config.plist in ACPI/DSDT/Patches you have two EC renames (EC0 to EC and ECDV to EC) you should figure out which one do you need, and delete the unnecessary ones. 

- Your SMBIOS is wrong. According to your signature it's a 7700HQ, exactly the same as MacBookPro14,3 so I changed that.

- Boot args deleted: dart=0 (not needed), nv_disable=1 (you already disabled it by SSDT), -shikioff (idk why), gfxrst=1

I did not remove -disablegfxfirmware but I think it's not necessary, try to remove and boot. 

 

Replaced your drivers with the new one. You also had SMCHelper (for FakeSMC) and VirtualSMC.efi, you should use jsut one. In your case it's VirtualSMC.efi. 

 

I had to delete FlashProgrammingTool.efi, FWUpdLcl.efi, MEInfo.efi, MEManuf.efi, ACPI/origin, and themes/minimal because of the zip size is too big to upload because of them, if you want to use them you have to readd them.

 

Take a look

 

EDIT: if you have DSDT errors pls change ACPI/DSDT/Name from "BIOS.aml" to "DSDT.aml"

I forgot that.

Now I am trying to update via clover V5126.
Will be reported after this

 

After the download is complete It will reboot up to the first installation step. Then reboot again. Available in 2 drivers, 1 driver update or 1..macosXinstall-via% preboot 2.macosX formvia% preboot. I try to choose number 1. Immediately after that restart Next, choose the second option. It will go to the main page prior to the latest update.
The result of the update was not successful. Does anyone have a better way?

!!Accept That the development of this version is so delayed
However, I will wait for the success to come.

Do not curse me, OC has developed very far now.

For AMD Users:

installing Catalina 10.15.7 (19H4) from usb full installer is fine (clover 5126 release master, commit 9e7b4311c)

 

installing Big Sur 11.0.1 (20B5012d) from usb full installer NO (clover 5126 release master, commit 9e7b4311c)

 

first installation step is fine

but when system reboot and you choose Preboot icon to do the second part, system reboots

The reason is that GetOs does not recognise Big Sur system in that step (preboot problem?) and in debug it is blank..

In this way system applies KernelPatches that Big Sur does Not need and it reboots

 

There is a trick to continue the installation using a great and unique Clover feature..Option/disable patches not for Big Sur

In this way Installation went fine...

I have applied this only for first installation steps..maybe for second and third part GetOS did its job fine

 

opened an issue on GitHub :

Typo

[iCanaro]

there is still a very strange bug
I performed a clean installation on the SSD of the Z68 of BigSur 11.0.1
everything IS OK. After installation and performed a couple of restarts, I saved the SystemVersion present in the BS preboot, then I started high sierra, all regular, but on restart in the GUI I found myself high sierra icon in the BigSur Startup Preboot
Here's why you're backing up your systemversion earlier
started with OC BS and arranged 
NB: this BUG occurs only and only at the first start of high sierra when you have a new installation/update of BigSur; 
after you can start higt sierra and bigsur how many times do you want nothing abnormal to happen.
if you need I also saved the Preboot

very strange this thing, I understand that there will not be many users who use so many macOS at the same time, but since I happened this thing on 3 hacks (Z370, X570, Z68)

good afternoon / night Jieff and Slice

 

after the r5120 version the way to activate the Nvidia Legacy video cards that was working until the r5119 simply stopped activating my GT 320M laptop

 

I tested it from version r5120 to r5126 and the problem continues!

 

with the r5119 active the inject nvidia and it works correctly

 

with the other most recent versions I activate it and at boot time where it should activate the intel it just stays with the black screen without accessing the light

 

I leave debug one where it works with the r5119 another does NOT work with the r5126

 

thanks for everything

Apologies for the slightly off topic but your a clever bunch in here!

 

Does anyone know if it's ok / safe to remove this Update partition and if so what's the best way to do it?

Hi @Jief_Machak hope you are well. I ran CloverConfigPlistValidator06 on the config-sample.plist found in the latest Clover releases, and got these errors, can I bother you to check them please and potentially fix your great validator tool?

Error: Expecting <true/> <false/> or <string> tag containing true, false, yes or no tag '/Devices/DisableFunctions:344'
Error: Expecting <true/> <false/> or <string> tag containing true, false, yes or no tag '/Devices/IntelMaxValue:369'
Warning: Unknown key '/Graphics/Connectors:729'. Skipped.

Warning: Unknown key '/RtVariables/Block[0]/UUID:1100'. Skipped.
Warning: Unknown key '/Quirks/DisableRtcChecksum:1264'. Skipped.

The structure for the errors comes from Devices section, not sure if DisableFunctions and IntelMaxValue are allowed values? They are certainly rarely used (to my experience all this time):

	<key>Devices</key>
	<dict>
[...] 
		<key>DisableFunctions</key>
		<string>0x18F6</string>
[...]
        <key>ForceHPET</key>
