How to directly boot into  specific volume, for me MACOS,Just like clover DefaultVolume. Thanks 

 

EFI: https://github.com/dhb52/z370-opencore

 

BTW, another question. I use Clover install on ssd along with macOS installed.

And I use a GUID partitioned HHD for TimeMachine backup, which I have my OC EFI installed to boot the same `macOS`.

by comparing usage of both booters, it seems that when using OC, my Win7(Paralled Desktop 14 vm) uses more memory, 

by opening Task Manager.

Startup disk, just like a real Mac. You'll also need working NVRAM and RequestBootVarRouting set to YES. This will make sure OpenCore sends you to the right drive.

 

Sorry, what "need working NVRAM" means, how can I setup NVRAM, and how can I test out it's working or not.

Hi, I also need the answer to this question, please a little bit clearer if possible. 

@Barry_dhb52 - did you succeed? 

Thanks! 

 

P.S. My board is an Asus ROG Maximus X Hero, running a i9-9900k. The system works like a charm, I just have to hit Enter every time at boot time. It wouldn't bother me, but I need my wife to also be able to open the computer... :))
