hello, i have a question,

 

how could i convert the hardware uuid shown in hardwareoverview into the one

i have to insert into clover custom uuid?

 

because i want to change it to a real one.

 

thx in advance

CustomUUID=same as you see in SystemProfiler

InjectSystemID=false

 

Namely

	<key>SystemParameters</key>
	<dict>
		<key>CustomUUID</key>
		<string>511CE200-1000-4000-9999-010203040506</string>
		<key>InjectSystemID</key>
		<false/>

One question. I needed boot into recovery partition for repair disk issues and I have seen that I do not graphic acceleration. Is it possible enable it in this partition? I have enable nvidia inject in config-plis


Thanks in advance

Hi, I am running UEFI Clover with AppleIntelE1000e.kext for LAN. The computer had been perfectly stable for a month but now I intermittently do not have internet access. This happens maybe 75% of the time I start the computer. I sometimes have to restart it five or more times for it to start with internet access. Regardless if I have internet access or not the network settings look the same (screenshot below).  I do have internet access on my phone and when I boot into Windows. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm starting to think it's a corrupted file somewhere and reinstalling is the only option. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

So I fixed it but I have no idea how I did it. I deleted a few more files in /L/P/SC/, increased number of DHCP clients to maximum, and entered all the network settings manually rather than leaving it on automatic. Anyway, Clover is excellent, I've tried Chimera and Chameleon and Clover is the only bootloader that has working iMessage and App Store updates. It's really interesting that my apps wouldn't update with the other bootloaders.

Hello all. 8) I wonder if anyone might know how to disable scanning of the attached usb drives for clover since when i have a couple of WD externals connected I have a long delay with a white underscore cursor at top left of the screen prior to the arrival of the clover GUI. When I don't have them connected it's nice and fast. Since I'd like to have them connected and it'd be nice if I didn't have to wait for 3 or 4 minutes for my pc to get to the clover GUI I wonder if any of you chaps might have a hint as to boot options etc? I have heard "external" flag mentioned.. and people talk about EFI commands too but I can't find anything relating. I can't see anything in the config.plist but I've heard something along the lines of "fast" as a boot flag might work too. Any suggestions appreciated. (yes, I know.. be nice.. I'm a clover virgin!) 8p

Hi all devs.

First of all sry for off topic here.

 

I am not developer and have an idea/question about some part virtualbox source code.

 

Virtualbox can run OSX soo must have some code to emulate SMC device.

Can this code be used for making a EFI driver/application for use with Clover/Ozmosis soo we dont need fakesmc? 

Under VirtualBox-4.3.10.tar\VirtualBox-4.3.10\VirtualBox-4.3.10\src\VBox\Devices\EFI we have a DevSmc.cpp

 * DevSmc - Apple System Manaagement Controller.
 *
 * The SMC is controlling power, fans, take measurements (voltage, temperature,
 * fan speed, ++), and lock Mac OS X to Apple hardware.  For more details see:
 *      - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Controller
 *      - http://www.parhelia.ch/blog/statics/k3_keys.html
 *      - http://www.nosuchcon.org/talks/D1_02_Alex_Ninjas_and_Harry_Potter.pdf

Sry again for posting this here,didnt know where other to post.

No.

FakeSMC is device emulator.

VirtualBox is a computer emulator including all devices, including SMC.

You can do nothing on real hardware, you must have real SMC device or emulated one at kernel level, not at boot level.

@jlfilms

From your config.plist, you have enabled Clover boot logging...

<key>Log</key>
<true/>

This is very useful for diagnosing boot problems but it will also "dramatically increase loading time as it has to write the log to the disk as it goes" - refer Clover wiki.  Since you have it enabled, you may as well look at the debug.log (in /EFI/CLOVER/misc/debug.log) to see if there are any other boot problems before turning it off.

Ok thanks man that fixed my problem and i looked at my logs and it shows some stuff about my audio, would you be able to help me with that? I hear a pop sound on startup of osx.

 

Thanks~!

pop sound can be power saving of Realtek audio chipset.. no fix as yet (well not if you plan on using vanilla kexts - you can use other sound kexts like voodooHDA too).. only workaround with vanilla is with pop buster plist. google for details. does it play normal sounds ok (apart from beginning with a pop if left for more than a minute?

 

 

Anyone know why starting up with attached USB drives (all WD in my case) leaves me at a cursor before the clover GUI for two minutes? I know it may be drive related because the motherboard (an H67 Gigabyte) will do it when I enable USB storage too.

@jlfims - I got around this pop problem on my gigabyte H61-USB3 based system with realtek audio by setting my product-id/board-id to model MacPro3,1 which does not use power saving modes for the audio.  pops at boot only. ( if you have HD3000 gfx, this could confuse the system on which graphics (buffers) to use - make sure the snb-platform-id value is explicitly set. (i have it set the dsdt)
