Piterakos Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Guys i've got an issue,i own a Fujitsu AH552/SL notebook which is running el capitan 10.10.1 with clover on an ssd.My system also runs a second hdd for data/backups + my old yosemite installation. Yesterday i noticed that clover has installed itself in the efi partition of my second hdd (not on ssd). So i installed clover again on my ssd and deleted the files from the hdd's efi partition. Now clover boots but when i choose my ssd to boot i just get a black screen and system hangs (no apple logo, no loading bar) and even when i boot verbose mode same thing happens without any reason. I've tried everything i know but can't get passed this issue so i reverted back to booting clover from hdd's efi and then boot my system from ssd. Any ideas???

cecekpawon Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Maybe clover read *.efis from your backup storage partition. Try to detach 2nd hdd, make usb clover boot. Boot from usb to ssd. Reinstall clover in ssd, re attach 2nd hdd, & now boot from ssd..

Piterakos Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 i have done all that but its the same result. Clover boots, all partitions appear (EFI, MacintoshHD, Recovery) but when i choose MacHD it hangs without a reason.Any other ideas?

cecekpawon Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 You can recheck if all required drivers for your board already copied from your efi backup / "EFI-Backups" folder in "MacintoshHD" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/309600-weird-behavior-from-clover/#findComment-2192193 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piterakos Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 ok about that, do i need to have EFI folder in MacHD with all the drivers etc or i can just put them in the EFI partition and nowhere else?

cecekpawon Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 No sir, EFI is a (hidden) partition in your ssd / usb. If you have backup as mentioned above, try to copy config.plist, drivers folder (with kexts / acpi patch if any) into usb and try to boot from there Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/309600-weird-behavior-from-clover/#findComment-2192440 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piterakos Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 done that, usb boots fine, ssd doesn't. I used to run dual boot with win 10 on second partition of my ssd but suddenly windows would not boot anymore so i formatted the ssd and clean installed el capitan only. Still i cannot get round to this problem Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/309600-weird-behavior-from-clover/#findComment-2193680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piterakos Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 after hours of searching i installed clover on my macHD/EFI folder (not the efi partiition) and it is working again as intended so i decided i will take no further action. Thanks for all the suggestions guys Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/309600-weird-behavior-from-clover/#findComment-2195365 Share on other sites More sharing options...
