Clover i did as you asked  "V=1 ./build me" = same  error

Ok. But you didn't send the log. Do you expect me to guess ?

 

So, first : look at your log. It it says that there is missing files ; check if the files are there or not. If they are not, fix it. If they are, send the log.

How can you expect help by just saying "it doesn't work" ? Send information, please.

you can build the specified target version by:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/CloverBootloader
cd CloverBootloader

(git reset <sha> --hard)
git reset 8209394af9c2106a9bfa8f4401ae996f4a248d47 --hard

./buildme

target sha is specified in the google sheet

setup:

• trying to install clover to USB stick on my MBP2017 running Catalina
• The USB stick has a copy of the Catalina installer
• On version 5129, I can get to the window where I can select where clover will be installed.
• On version 5119 and below, I keep on getting the message "cannot install without ensuring the file-system is read/write". And then the clover installer will automatically close. I want to install a version before OpenRuntime was introduced.

Any ideas? Thanks

 

EDIT: I have 2 MBP2017s and 1 iMAC 2017 but they are all running Catalina. I'm only mentioning this in case you want me to try creating the USB installer on an older version of macOS.

r5119 never gave me any trouble with Catalina installs (both legacy BIOS and UEFI installs).  I always used the CLOVER_r5119.pkg installer.  r5122 (with OCRuntime/OCQuirks) was also solid with no Catalina installation problems either (CLOVER_r5122.pkg installer).  The only issue I observed was the error "CLOVER does not support this macOS version" (or something like that) and I just ignored the message.

I will try on the iMac tomorrow. Thanks

Maybe I'm missing something... Are 'MBP2017' and 'iMac' your spoofed SMBIOS, or are you installing CLOVER on real Macs?  I have no experience installing CLOVER on real Macs.

[Henry2010]

Just a note.

AppleALC 1.5.7 didn't work with 5129. (I mute my build most of the time, so I didn't notice it earlier.)

5130 has fixed this.

Thanks.

I am trying to install macOS Catalina on my HP Z820.

 

I am making the USB installer using the Macs available to me. :)

[deeveedee]

@mrjayviper Now it makes sense!  Forgive my slow understanding!   If all of your real Macs are running the same version of Catalina, I would expect installation of CLOVER in the USB EFI to behave the same on each Mac.  If you find otherwise, I'd love to know.

Sorry if I post in the wrong place, this seems to be the best place to post. I have managed to update Clover to 5130 in the EFI partition of the Hackintosh using the Clover app. I have also tried to update Clover on the EFI of the installation pen drive with Big Sur 11.2 , but it failed to do so, saying to check if the partition is writable.

No problems with Big Sur 11.3 Beta 1 (Clover PKG). Do you try to update Clover EFI Folder pen drive, with Clover 5130 PKG instead of Clover.app !

No, as I said, I used the Clover app .

Clover.app was not updated for BigSur. Try pkg.

If I manage to download Big Sur 11.2.1 installer to put it on the pen drive, would you recommend using the Clover pkg or the Clover app ?

[LockDown]

PKG. They already said it twice

I'm trying to fix the hibernationmode=25 on my Lenovo X1C6 (notebook 1) with Clover v5130.

The problem is I don't know how.

There are some things in config.plist/Boot about it: StrictHibernate, HibernationFixup, RtcHibernateAware, and SignatureFixup (?).

What should I enable? 

 

HibernationFixup doesn't help, If I put the notebook to hibernated state, at start I get CMOS failure (with and without HibernationFixup). I have to use RTCMemoryFixup to fix that, but it says then hibernation will not work (and it does not indeed)

Do you try via Terminal: pmset -a hibernatemode 25

 

[Matgen84]

Hi all users @Slice

I update my Z390 config to Big Sur 11.3 Beta 2. Now I can only boot from USB, no more from my hard disk: the two EFI Folder are the same  Clover r5130.

Does anyone have some ideas ! Please.

@Matgen84

Hmm... it is interesting. And what happens when you boot from HDD?

Of course, that is what I meant when wrote "hibernationmode=25", just a mistype

 @Slice could you help me about this?
