Paologas91 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Hi there, i just installed OS X Yosemite with my usb stick. My pc: asrock h81m-vg4, Asus gt640, corsair 8gb ddr3, i5 4460, ssd Kingstone 240gb. I can only boot into Yosemite by using USB stick. I installed clover selecting the options :"Install for uefi only", "install in the esp", and i selected emuvariable, partitiondxe and optiofx...and target script. Then i converted the EFI partiton from HFS to FAT32 as indicated in the guide. But when i restart computer bootloader wont appear, but if i get in the pen drive it boots up...what s the problem???? Thanks !!! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/306115-ssd-clover-uefi-yosemite-non-booting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangten Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Did you copy your EFI folder from your usb to your FAT32? Usually if you install clover it will overwrite your config in your EFI on a fresh target and then obviously your setting in the config list all wrong and so are your kext's.

Hey there, thanks for reply...i tried to copy the entire folder EFI of the USB to the EFI folder of the SSD...but i still cannot boot...it seems the pc cannot see the EFI partition at startup..how is it possible? maybe it should not be FAT32? i don't know ...please help me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/306115-ssd-clover-uefi-yosemite-non-booting/#findComment-2134871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion71au Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Your EFI partition might be corrupted. Did you convert to HFS and install Chameleon there previously?What is the output of "diskutil list" when run in OSX terminal?eg diskutil list /dev/disk0 #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *500.1 GB disk0 1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1 2: Apple_HFS Mavericks 124.4 GB disk0s2 3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3 4: Microsoft Reserved 134.2 MB disk0s4 5: Microsoft Basic Data SHARED DATA 249.8 GB disk0s5 6: Microsoft Basic Data WIN7_X64 125.0 GB disk0s6 Note "TYPE" and "NAME" should both be "EFI" for partition 1. You can try reformatting the EFI: In terminal, type the following commands, followed by <Enter>... diskutil unmount /dev/diskXs1 (where X=disk number of your hard disk) sudo newfs_msdos -v EFI -F 32 /dev/rdiskXs1 If the partition type has been changed from "EFI" to something else, you can repair it using the "GDisk" utility - see part III of post#359.

Hey there! Thanks for reply. So 1) i never installed chameleon. This is the first install on my new ssd and i installed clover as UEFI. 2) this is the output of the photo: 3) could it be a config.plist problem? I tried to change some options (some fix in ahci with clover configurator) and now i am able to boot up!! How can i see if my config.plist is correct for my configuration? Thanks a lot!!!
