Please show your hardware signature to make sure whether my Clover 5151/5154's config.plist working in yours.

Hi All

 

Z390 rig (SMBIOS iMac20,1 - Clover 5154 - Sonoma Beta 6)

 

After a coupe of hours, I don't find the solution: csrutil disable command don't work on Recovery mode (Sonoma). There is this error message: "csrutil failed to update system integrity configuration. failed to set csr-active-config" Don't work too: csrutil authenticated-root disable.

[Clover] I put csr-active-config to 0x0 (Enable SIP) in the config.plist. Perhaps, there is something wrong in config.plist, below ? Could you have a look !

Do you have a solution, please

• ACPI
  •  
  • Most of the ACPI Tables are disabled.  I am pretty sure you need SSDT-PMC on Z390!
  • SAT0 to SATA – disable that. If you want to rename the device in a smart way, use the "Rename Devices" feature instead.
• Boot
  • itlwm_cc=FR – (I couldn't find any reference for this boot-arg)
• CPU
  • Type: 0x0705 – Why?
• Devices/Properties
  • Why are you injecting all these devices that the system knows already? You only need to inject Propeties for unknown devices and if you want to change parameters for a device.
• Kernel and Kext Patches
  • Disable/Delete all the Portlimit Patches. Handled by XhciPortlimit quirk
• RT Variables
  • Try 0x803 for CsrActiveConfig
• SMBIOS:
  • Why are you using iMac20,1? For z390, iMac19,1 is recommended!
  • SMBIOS is out of date as well. Selecte "Update Firmware Only" and select the corresponding model again
• System Parameters
  • Inject Kexts is obsolete since this command is for FSInject.efi which is no longer present in Clover (since r5125). Instead, OpenRuntime.efi handles Kexts injection now (like for everything important). So this is basically just a dead entry now.

[Slice]

I have to remind that XhciPortLimit patch is recognized as harmful. Use USBmap kext or analogs.

 

I want to confirm that gcc13,1 and Python3.11.5 are good for compiling Clover in Mojave.

@cankiulascmnfye Thanks for your advices.

 

What about csrutil issue in MacOS Sonoma Recovery Mode ? Error message: "csrutil failed to update system integrity configuration. failed to set csr-active-config" Don't work too: csrutil authenticated-root disable.

But after you will reboot from Recovery to macOS you'll go again into the bootloader which change SIP as set in your config.plist.

Thanks @Slice The error message show up In Terminal on Recovery Mode. csrutil failed before reboot.

Perhaps, there is a possibility. In Clover GUI/Ssytem Parameters: what are the good setting to disable SIP.

[Marcinho]

I use 0x26F for CsrActiveConfig to get complete disable.

Thanks. Some macOS apps need CsrActiveConfig disable for installation.

@Matgen84

I confirm that the problem comes from your EFI/config.plist

because I have just tested disabling SIP by Recovery HD and it works very well with Clover

- The USB Patches I refered to are not disabled! They are set to "Disabled = False" which is the same as "Enabled". The only reason they are not executed is the "Match OS" parameter!

- Use proper single SSDTs no All-in-one file!

- "Update Firmware only" is a feature of Clover Configurator, not OpenCore!

- Format the disk and perform a clean install

Thanks 😊

 

- The USB Patches : I remove these old patches that is the best way

- I can use several SSDT rather the SSDT-All-in-ON (approved by MaldOn). I don't understand why ?

- I don't use Clover Configuator app. "Update Firmware only" is not present in Clover config-sample.plist (GitHub repo). Maybe I'm wrong, but this feature isn't present too in the Clover source files either. I try to generate a SMBIOS from Clover configurator app: no key for "Update Firmware only". I don't understand. For SMBIOS iMac20,1: mine 21/05/2023 > Clover configurator app 4/03/2023 !

 

***** EDIT *******

 

In my config.plist: I add this two keys before clean up. And Trust=True in SMBIOS section.

<key>KbdPrevLang</key>
            <false/>
            <key>language</key>
            <string>fr:60</string>

Now csrutil command work fine 😊

csrutil authenticated-root disable : Command recognized here on Recovery mode.

 

The only change in my config.plist: I add this two keys below. And Trust=True in SMBIOS section.

<key>KbdPrevLang</key>
            <false/>
            <key>language</key>
            <string>fr:60</string>

Interesting. When early betas of Catalina were released, the install assistant only showed a grey background without text if the language was not set to US English because it didn't contain tranlations at that stage. But I didn't know that this could affect recovery as well. So when working with beta versions of macOS using "en-US:0" is best way to maximize compatibility.

 

BTW: In the Boot section, delete the "Legacy" key. It's not required.

I don't know if language key affect directly the issue. It doesn't matter. The important thing is that it works now.

 

On Beta 6, there is a choice language windows. Strangely, Recovery OS Interface was in Russian before.

Hi

On your AMD Hack do you have a BCM943xx as Wifi card ?

With latest Clover r5155 (2711170df commit) dis you add the new KEY BlockSkywalk (bool set to FALSE) ?

If BlockSkywalk is not present in KernelAndKextPatches section the default value is TRUE and with TRUE value BlockSkywalk macOS (14,13,12,...) can't boot, certainly your pbm.

Regards

Hi @matxpa Block Skywalk is optional. If I understand the lines of code in the commit correctly. By defaut the value is FALSE. Sorry.

Did you try the last Clover build without BlockSkywalk key in config.plist ?

Hi
I don't try for the moment this commit 2711170. For testing my onboard Intel 9560 ac on Sonoma,  I use the previous one. On your side you tried ?

adding in the config BlockSkywalk no, sonoma it starts with the latest clover commit

Yes I've already tried it since few days as you could see on this screenshot below (r5155 (2711170) local XCOD8 build)

 

 

So try r5155 without BlockSkywalk in config.plist, with BlockSkywalk activated, with BlockSkywalk deactivated

 

And the reason why i would try this r5155 release is the BCM94360 Wifi card on this Asus Laptop, i suppose it's a legitimate reason.

 

Spoiler

 

And to close this topic look in CloverBootloader/rEFIt_UEFI/Settings/ConfigPlist/Config_KernelAndKextPatches.h line code number 318

...

rEFIt_UEFI/Settings/ConfigPlist/Config_KernelAndKextPatches.h:318:    XBool dgetBlockSkywalk() const { return BlockSkywalk.isDefined() ? BlockSkywalk.value() : XBool(true); };

...
