Yes, I can. First I need boot.log (or debug.log) with latest Clover on this hardware.

And a question what is wrong?

Here we go preboot.log

This is always good to update Clover. But there is no Sequoia specific fixes except interface.

I think you take into account DSDT need be patched?

[Slice]

These kexts exists to replace Clover functions

0:441  0:003  Added Kext=Other\CPUFriendDataProvider.kext (1.0.0)
0:442  0:000  Added Kext=Other\BFixup.kext (1.0.1)
0:445  0:003  Added Kext=Other\CpuTopologyRebuild.kext (1.1.0)
0:448  0:003  Added Kext=Other\SMCProcessor.kext (1.3.4)
0:451  0:003  Added Kext=Other\USBWakeFixup.kext (1)
0:454  0:003  Added Kext=Other\CPUFriend.kext (1.2.9)

So I am not sure that I may improve something.

This is wrong

13:476  0:000  Finally: ExternalClock=18MHz BusSpeed=68268kHz CPUFreq=3686MHz PIS: hw.busfrequency=72000000Hz

 

[Slice]

You should set

UseARTFrequency = true

And this is a problem for macOS

0:111  0:000  Threads: 128
0:111  0:000  Cores: 1

AFAIK maximum is 64.

[MaLd0n]

I tested with all possible combinations of kexts and with Clover it always stops before entering the desktop. With OpenCore boot is fine.

Vit add these things on opencore https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/commit/1493b56c3afc5c6fc8babc3b3a393785ff0b6d94

[MaLd0n]

If need easy way use Gigabyte mobo with Vit patch. MSI, ASUS, ASROCK have others bug in DSDT. This same bug is very old in MSI mobos.

Check my DSDT System DSDT.aml.zip

Work for clover and opencore on mobo MSI PRO-Z890-P-WIFI

I committed useful changes for such processors. But I cannot attach binaries because of blocked.

Now I am hereClover_Arrow.7z

[Max.1974]

 Thanks for update Slice 

[LockDown]

Does legacy boot support quirks?

[LockDown]

@Slice why is it if I rename the VolumeName of my OS ssd, it doesnt show the edited name on the clover GUI menu?

 

Old volumename is "macOS Sonoma"(the name during installation) & clover gui display it. But after install, if i rename it as "Macintosh SSD",  clover still shows the old name

 

UPDATE: Got it 👍 Solved 🙂

Perhaps it is enough to reset NVRAM?

No. As it is written inside of a hidden file

[Anto65]

The hidden file in question is  .disk_label.contentDetails

 

Positioned in  System/Volumes/Preboot/UUID/System/Library/CoreService

 

 

It can work ( not always ) simply by just installing IntelPowerGadget , on reboot it will give the name of the installed OS to the disk (  🙏 miliuco )

 

Alternative method edit the file through the terminal ( valid for both Clover and Opencore )

 

Spoiler

Disable SIP

 

go inside .disk_label.contentDetails -> diskutil info / | grep "APFS Volume Group"

 

In my case the UUID is this D0A2B7EE-5C32-421D-B110-BF41483C4276  ( yours is definitely different)

Now that we know the UUID dgt in the terminal to take us inside the CoreServices folder:

 

cd /System/Volumes/Preboot/D0A2B7EE-5C32-421D-B110-BF41483C4276/System/Library/CoreServices/

 

once inside CoreServices

Let's type :

 

sudo bless --folder . --label "Macintosh HD"   (Note “Macintosh HD” will be the name that will be displayed in the GUI at boot, so you can change it to “Sonoma” or whatever you prefer)

 

Final command to print everything:

 

printf "Macintosh HD" | sudo tee .disk_label.contentDetails; echo

sudo chgrp wheel .disk*

 

[LockDown]

What is bless for @Anto65?

Editing disk_label.contentDetails is enough for me.

[Anto65]

I didn't understand ?

 

you can edit the file manually also with textedit, navigating through the finder until you get to the .disk_label.contentDetails

 

or - in my opinion  faster - via terminal with those commands
