Tread very carefully as windows can over write the boot files or worst case scenario cause corruption. In an ideal situation is to isolate the disk you're not installing to, but not so easy in your case as you pointed out.

I don't know how you install Windows, start the Windows PE environment, use winntsetup, load the iso file, choose the boot partition, choose the installation target partition, everything is up to you to decide, will never break other systems, very simple thing!

Mind expanding your installation procedure? I really can't install (always error out) Windows 10 on my second SATA SSD. Others confirmed it's not possible unless I disconnect other drives. My macOS is installed in the M.2 slot at the back of motherboard. So disconnecting is my last option.

Thanks.

Well actually there is Only one branch of OC and is the one you'r actually posting in,

then, wouldn't be a bad idea if you took the time to read a bit around this thread, just to have at least an idea of what's going on...

 

Anyway his fork as it is should build normally since it's around 2 weeks ndk Does not update his OC fork...

and around one month for the bootpicker 

 

Looking at the names your directories have i would suppose there's something wrong in the way you get them,

OpenCorePkg-master is nowhere to be found simply because it does not exists.

If you are not familiar on how to get files from git, you will find plenty of informations just reading a few posts.

 

If you'r trying to get the bootpicker working with last OC (official) just forget it...

it will never happen, 

to get a working copy you should get the branch for 0.5.8 from git and build against it.

Themes/Default is the directory where you have all the icons, and its still there,

Not to be rude but  since you as far as i can see, you just have 2 posts in this forum, wouldn't be a bad idea to first reading around, 

As I just suggested to Oxone, same goes for you

 

[fuzzylogic]

I am sorry but your comment does not make much sense

             I do not see from the posters comment above how he or she can see if we had been reading round or not? why are there different versions? of NDK? why is it on the same link? I provided a link to source I provided a reference and only , and I mean only once I had read extenisvely did I seek help. On the other hand you made an assumption, to suggest for some reason that you felt we had not read or researched. If I was producing a fork of Open core and someone else was using my fork with the same name, then I would be wishing to try and find out who plagurized my version?

I am a consultant by trade, I always do my research first then if I get stuck or need clarity I ask an expert for advise.

In my trade we see alot of fake copies, and we are keen to stamp it out

 

thanks for your help and your not being rude, just slight of hand! 

regards

Hi I'm using this fantastic Open Core Fork I would say, I have 1 problem on the DELL 5584 I5 8265 Laptop, I can't start if I use drivers other than aptiomemoryfix, I would like advice on how to fix this, plus I add that the latest PS2 or I2c kext they are problematic .......
I attach the EFI which is the most performing and thanks for the support.

P.S. I follow the link it seems for a moment still the update to 0.5.9 is right ?? https://github.com/n-d-k/OpenCorePkg/blob/master/Changelog.md

Hi,

 

first time going to try NDK's forked OC.

 

git cloned his git repository and issued ./ndk-macbuild.tool. But apparently has the same issues as the forumer above.

 

Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

NDK's forked OC is not update since few weeks. This is why you can't build.

Edited May 23, 2020 by Matgen84

[Awesome Donkey]

Looks like EDK2 changes broke building it again.

 

I decided to switch to vanilla OpenCore a week ago since I like to keep on the bleeding edge with general OC changes (instead of having to make all changes when the next version is released), however NDK's fork is the better version when using multiple OSes. If there's no updates soon (or updates to the next OC version when it's released) hopefully another developer (or better yet a group of developers) decides to fork this fork and continue work on it, thankfully that's the benefit of open-source.

 

Hopefully NDK is alright and it's just a case of not having internet access or something like that. With the way things are in the world these days, it's hard to not assume the worst.

Add windows in bless override, that’s what fixed that problem for me. I’ll post config later if you can’t sort it out.

 

<dict>
    <key>BlessOverride</key>
    <array>
        <string>\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi</string>

After updating to the newest nightly I have the following errors, could you help me to solve them:

 

OCS: No Schema for Delete at 1 Index!

OCS: No schema for Delete at 1 Index!

OCS: No schema for ApplePanic at 1 Index!

OCS: No schema for BlacklistAppleUpdate at 1 Index!

OCS: No schema for Delete at 1 Index!

OCS: No schema for DeduplicateBootOrder at 0 Index!

OCS: No schema TscSyncTimeout at 1 Index!

 

 

Are these "Schema" thing actually not implemented? What should I do to fix it?

NDK-OC is not maintained since May,4 and his latest release 0.5.8. No news from @n.d.k  since one month

Edited June 6, 2020 by Matgen84

[Awesome Donkey]

The fork hasn't been updated in over a month, and the last version available is based on OpenCore 0.5.8.

 

Those no scheme errors are from changes in OpenCore 0.5.9 which doesn't apply to the now out-of-date OC fork.

OPENCANOPY.efi
How can I use this?

 

I have OpenCanopy.efi in the Drivers folder and declared in the config.plist, but when I set Picker to External, I am not greeted with OpenCanopy. How can this be remedied?

Ender.
 

P.S. Sorry to say this, but anything that resembles Clover makes me want to vomit.
