CloverEFI / Clover-EFI 64Bit SATA
Drivers64UEFI / EmuVariableUefi-64
Drivers64UEFI / OsxAptioFixDrv-64
Drivers64UEFI / PartitionDxe-64
RC-Script´s
 
Install Clover in the ESP (optional)
 
 
High Sierra:
Install Clover in the ESP

Bootloader / Install boot0af in the MBR

CloverEFI / Clover-EFI 64Bit SATA
Drivers64UEFI / EmuVariableUefi-64

Sure!

 

But none of the drivers in Drivers64UEFI are actually used :D !

 

The thing is that you have "Bootloader / Install boot0af in the MBR" so this is the boot file at the root of the ESP that do all the job ;).

That's correct!

 

For instance, if you put apfs.efi only in Drivers64UEFI, Clover won't see any APFS drives if you're using Legacy.

This is why I rename the driver apfs-64.efi and put in Drivers64

Even that is unnecessary :).

 

You can name it whatever you want it will load as long as it's in the correct place :).

 

As a test, I've renamed apfs.efi from /usr/standalone/i386/apfs.efi to /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64/test.efi and it just works!

But the good name for Hackintosh is apfs-64.efi  ;)

same with the Drivers HFSPlus.efi

HFSPlus-64.efi   :D

No, I'm not sure, but it works here without problems.

 

apfs.efi in /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64/ works without problems

It is only rename for avoid confusion with the DriversUEFI

Since the first Day High Sierra success Install :)

insanelyMac today totally slow with problems

 

With you, too?

 

 

 

@ricoc90

 

Can you please install VoodooHDA on the 755?

 

Then make a VoodooDump with DarwinDumper / Audio!

 

That would be nice.

 

Except for you is nobody active and ready for 755.

The forum has been slow for me since the past 2 weeks or so.
 
Here's the dump.
 
DarwinDumper_3.0.3_23.09_17.24.29_iMac10,1_Clover_X64_4200_Sierra_16G29_rico.zip
 
A little info: VoodooHDA never really worked for me.
The mic is always on which causes a huge static sound and a really loud high pitched peeping sound. When I turn iGain to 0 on output device (Headphone jack as well as line-out), the mic doesn't work at all anymore.

For those who are interested

 
I just bought a great little Graphics Card on KIJIJI
Saphire Radeon 5570
For the modest sum of $ 45
This card is native any version of OS X from 10.6 to 10.13  :thumbsup_anim:
on Delll Optiplex 790 
Very Silent in addition, Working plug in play with my SSDT Patch  :)
I just put out my 5450 and put in the 5570 et Voila

EDIT***
I have just made a test without SSDT patch with only Inject Ati
and the card works natively NO Fake ID Clover
Original Device ID  is   0x68D9
:w00t:  :D
Sleep and wake works natively and HDMI AppleALC 
 

EDIT ***

 

I remove the 

<key>FBName</key>

 

<string>Cedar</string>

and now its show the exacte name  :thumbsup_anim:  :D

 

 

EDIT***

 

but to have my two screens on my two GPU I have to add the FB
and sacrificing the name   :)

Hi folks, 

  I have updated my dell760 sff to 10.13 but I cannot get my audio to work. For Sierra I used the Applealc.kext with the dsdt layout modified but the same dsdt and kext are not working in High Sierra. Can anyone advise any method that works.
