if you use OpenCore you start very much ahead. you have to fix the quirks section of Clover identically as you are using on OC, then no aptio, only OpenRuntime.
In my hacks starting from Z68 I only use 3 .efi, OpenRuntime, VboxHFS and APFS drivers; and everything seems to work as it owes exactly the same as OC

VboxHFS is better than HFSPlus or just because the former is opensource?

 

testing Clover beta on different platforms, I only use drivers provided in the package, so HFSPlus no and VboxHFS yes.

in my opinion it's much better to back up on the desktop than in root
maybe you could opt into the user root

 

Thought! :worried_anim:

As Clover.app already set-up a back-up folder onto Desktop, wouldn't be safer having the same one used by all instances in Clover build?

why setting another directory for same files?

and btw, all previous back-ups from EFI-BACKUP, would be ominous for current release..

Thanks for this improvement, it's great :) I understand this solution is because backup on root for Big Sur is impossible (R/W permission). But Clover Backup's can be stored in /Documents instead of /Desktop. For the moment, all the limitations of the number of backups are invalidated. It would be nice to turn them back on, if that's possible. What do you think, Bro !

 

Regarding the backup directory, I prefer the desktop because I don't want anything to happen in my documents. For the revision number, I don't mind as I am looking at the Clover Log.txt

I was not talking about the revision number, but the number of backups in Clover Backups folder. Until now, there was a limitation on the number of backups. It no longer exists.

For the storage path of backups: Desktop or documents, it depends on the needs or habits of the users. I prefer user root if is it possible :hysterical:

I have the same idea as you.
Because it is reserved at the desktop, it looks very messy.
Should be backed up to the document.:)

I have to say that this discussion of where it backs up the EFI the Installer of Clover, I am very passionate about very little.... for a long time I do not install but I recover the iso and I take by hand the files I want to use. It has to be said that I am very happy that it installs properly on Big Sur, so we will see far fewer people complaining on forums. :D

you can ignore these alerts or delete the custom entries that you have in the gui

if it reports it to you, I guess it's disabled, so you can delete it or ignore it

with a plist editor you identify the voices and comments by putting the pound sign # in front of him

Hi everyone, I did take the steps provided on a virgin (never installed gcc or other) system: 

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/CloverBootloader.git
cd CloverBootloader
./buildme

Then, I chose option 7 to build all. It installed needed tools (great!!) but I have this error reported (on my Catalina latest): 

[...]
mkdir ./bin
make -C VfrCompile VfrLexer.h
BIN_DIR='.' make -C Pccts/dlg
cc -O -I. -I../support/set -I../h -DUSER_ZZSYN -DZZLEXBUFSIZE=65536 -c dlg_p.c
In file included from dlg_p.c:14:
In file included from ../h/pcctscfg.h:61:
../h/pccts_stdio.h:7:10: fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found
#include <stdio.h>
         ^~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
make[3]: *** [dlg_p.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [Pccts/dlg/dlg] Error 2
make[1]: *** [VfrCompile/VfrLexer.h] Error 2
make: *** [Source/C] Error 2

Any idea what is this missing ../h/pccts_stdio.h file missing? Thanks

I have solved my issue with my HP Envy laptop, trying to update to latest Clover 5126.

I am using VoodooPS2Controller.kext to get my keyboard and touchpad working.

This kext packages several other kexts as plugins (VoodooInput, VoodooPS2Trackpad, ...). In OpenCore I had to load each plugin separately.

In the old Clover (before 5123) I just used VoodooPS2Controller.kext and Clover automatically loads each plugin.

 

Since the latest Clover uses OpenCore.efi for kext loading, this was not working anymore --> Clover just hangs at the OS selection screen.

I have unpacked each kext now from the Plugin folder in VoodooPS2Controller.kext.

 

I'm ready for Big Sur!

I should have given more background. I have both OpenCore (0.6.3) and Clover (5126) working on my AMD FX hackintosh. So I am aware of the Quirks section in the Clover config.plist.

On the HP laptop I also have a working OpenCore setup and Clover 5122. For the update to Clover 5126, I did adjust the Quirks section of the Clover config.plist and used the same settings that are working in my Opencore setup. All kexts are updated.

Will check again on memory manager tonight --> I assume you mean I should delete the Aptioxxx fixes?

 

Any other hints are welcome. I still like Clover bootloader, but it's getting hard to configure without good instructions. 

would you mind to share the clover patch for amd 15-16 h procesoor

OK time to complete some things, then I put it on MEGA and I'll link you, here on IM I ran out of space.
If in the meantime you click on Clover Quirks that I have signed, on the page where you arrive there is the quirks section of my Z68 with i7 2600K
then you tried some boot-arg kind 
-lilubetaall
vsmcgen=1
watchdog=0

Z97 :thumbsup_anim: it made me work a bit but eventually gave in

on the first restart after a while the prohibition signal appeared, like when one installs from pendrive and you lose the USB port, here I was on NVMe so I set the

built-in DATA 01000000 in properties

then I inserted boot-arg

-lilubetaall

vsmcgen=1
