dudeinco Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I have El Capitan installed (upgraded from Yosemite), and everything works great when I insert the USB drive - it boots from the HD, then switches over to the USB loader, and I can boot into El Capitan - all good. If I remove the USB and boot, it goes into Clover (latest version), I can select OSX, it gets to the logo, then goes into panic and reboots. It's fairly quick, but I can see SuperVIAATA compiled by Niresh in the first few lines. I know this isn't much to go on, but any thoughts on how I could get what is going on with the USB Clover to the hard drive? I'm thinking it is driver/kext related, because I tried taking a picture of all the start settings and applying it to the HD Clover start settings for OSX, but it still panicked. In Yosemite, I used Chameleon, and booted directly from the HD. Haven't had the same luck with Clover/El Capitan.

dimosgmx Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 We would need some more info. Is it legacy or uefi? Is clover installed in the EFI partition? When you boot from the hard drive, on clover settings is the OS 10.11? Can you boot directly from the USB? If yes this is what I would try: DISCLAIMER: Not an expert. Ideally you should make a full backup of your drive with SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner or at least Time Machine. 1. I would backup the EFI folder (it would be either on the root for example Macintosh HD or on the EFI partition which you would have to mount from Disk Utility with debug mode on) 2. Copy the EFI folder from the USB stick to the location of the EFI folder on your drive. (you can only copy the config.plist and any kexts for 10.11) 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/310336-only-boots-from-usb/#findComment-2205693 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clover settings said 10.10.11, so changed it to 10.11, but no change. 3. I will look into the EFI - That is a good start. -Thanks! I will work through your ideas and see how it goes.
