Mc2019 0 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Hi, I have two questions. What is different between DataHub-Generic-PlatformNVRAM and SMBIOS in OpenCore? is it possible to add setting boot-loader to OpenCore Picker (similar to Clover, to emergency verbose mode when boot stuck or something..)? Thanks for reply. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1Revenger1 38 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Generally, you really only want to be filling out "Generic" and setting PlatformInfo->Automatic=true It will generate everything under DataHub/PlatformNVRAM/SMBIOS for you if configured this way, rather than having to manually specify all those. There are various key combinations you can use (like a real mac) to enter safe or verbose mode. There isn't any other way to manipulate it from within the picker though. You could use OpenShell/EFIShell to edit the config.plist and restart but I generally wouldn't recommend leaving a shell in your tools folder Mc2019 and Alpha999 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That item is written in SampleCustom.plist, but not in Sample.plist. I set it from Sample.plist using ProperTree. Here's what we've inherited from Clover: MLB supports Board Serial Number in Clover. SystemProductName corresponds to ProductName. System UUID corresponds to SmUUID. SystemSerialNumber corresponds to SerialNumber. The ROM is set the MAC address, as everyone says. Good luck. naiclub 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
