I do not know why you try to do everything at the same time instead of focusing only on a ( High Sierra )

and be able to at least succeed one and after watching to make others working

 

I'm considered all by myself(createmedianinstall,startosinstall, 3rd install tools, etc). Netinstall that you mentioned also support various OS. yes. Ofc, we now don't need to consider old osx cases. If you can, i just wonder result and i want to commit it with enough test as one of all. I don't want to waste revision. Therefore if it is possible to gather more info, after arrange from info and test and commit.

Because of reason, i asked test to you.

Once, I will consider only High Sierra. 

Sorry for my bad english.

 

EDIT1

try this. folder name

NetInstall macOS High Sierra.nbi

i don't touch anything of got folder after process. just copied files in root.

also you have to add new modded driver. it's not related entry. you need this file for skipping +++++++++ part.

i got kernel panic. this is hard process. i think it seems not good for hack. not sure this works means. or request developer to resolve kernel panic. because it only happen kernel panic in netinstall.

i know. now there is a problem between fusion drive and filevault 2 parition. because the files structure of fusion drive(10.11) and filevault2 are same.

https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/284656-clover-general-discussion/?do=findComment&comment=2533705

already i asked some info to you. and i'm waiting your response. but there was no your response. i want to know info again.

1. your partition consist of fusion drive?

2. your partition is name "Recovery HD". Is this the name you specified?

3. can you check this folder and file in your partition
\\com.apple.boot.R\\System\\Library\\PrelinkedKernels\\prelinkedkernel
\\com.apple.boot.P\\System\\Library\\PrelinkedKernels\\prelinkedkernel
\\com.apple.boot.S\\System\\Library\\PrelinkedKernels\\prelinkedkernel

 

i didn't have experience about FileVault 2

hope you support your detail info to clean source for maintenance.

thanks in advance

 

EDIT1.

your partition is not fusion drive.

 

EDIT2.

if it is not "2. your partition is name "Recovery HD". Is this the name you specified?"

here is test file

PM me with your SF handle and I'll add you to the members so you can edit the page.

Sherlocks,

— Recovery HD is a standard name, not custom named.

— com.apple.boot.R at this partition is normally used for upgrades.

You'd better implement bless really just like Fritz suggested. Once it is ready, I perhaps may tweak AptioMemoryFix to allow proper boot.efi chaining (used for Recovery and Installer access).

Thank you for info. Right. What Fritz mentioned is better.

Can you test netinstall method?

I tested it, but happen kernel panic. Because of end line like "apple report", i can't catch exact reason. Thanks

[vit9696]

Not really in the foreseeable future.

 

However, you may use my kernel patch and -v debug=0x100 keepsyms=1 boot arguments to observe the panic log properly.

i don't know this kernel patch before, i will test. thank you.

Clover4449.

In the FV2 system, all partitions are displayed correctly.It seems so to me...

Cant seem to boot existing Sierra install with Clover newer than 4220. Boot screen stalls on this screen.

Hi everyone. 

 

Where the best place to put 3rd party/party kexts?

 

From within clover alone there's

 

1.EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Others

2.EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.xx

 

When should I use SLE?

 

Thanks so much!

It depends how many versions of OSX you want to use. If only one than 1st option. If you happy with your install and everything tested and works good you can transfer kexts to SLE. Some kexts needs to be installed to SLE only, like bluetooth kexts.

IMO (and experience)

 

/Library/Extensions (vs SLE ) tends to be the better option for 3rd party (for things not macOS installed) - that is if you need to put them in the OS (vs ESP with clover injection) - as some kexts seem to only work this way.

Otherwise if you have no version dependent kexts - which is common if are booting recent OS such as Sierra and High Sierra, then EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other keeps it simple.

 

[Slice]

Installing into LE or SLE requires keeping root:wheel permissions.

Clover's folder do not. It is more simple to install and modify kexts here. But in this case you can't use other bootloaders.

[telepati]

I still struggling with this question. What are these third-party kexts? @RehabMan always saying after installation moves all kexts to L/E. But some people saying keep your kexts in the Clover/Others.

 

For instance, I am using these kexts and which one are in the third-party kext?

 

AppleALC.kext

EFICheckDisabler.kext

FakeSMC.kext

IntelMausiEthernet.kext

Lilu.kext

USBInjectAll.kext

 

Should I keep these kexts inside of the Clover/Others or which kexts should I move to L/E?

Your kexts are no problem.

I recommend Bluetooth Kexts files(Rehabman BT or Dinesh BT) in L/E or S/L/E if you have problem about bt gone when wakeup from sleep.

Hi

 

Currently, I manually update kexts in EFI/Clover/Kext/others or 10.13.  Do you know a drag & drop app to do the job?

 

Thanks
