lottenow Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Hi All, As per title I am looking for a way to hide partitions or disks during boot picker on OpenCore. Essentially, I would like to hide NTFS volumes during boot picker and only use them through Finder once logged in into my hackintosh on Big Sur. I believe I should look at ScanPolicy, but I was wondering what the right value would be? Thank you!

lottenow Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 Thank you all for your suggestions! @eSaF : The failsafe value seems to have done the trick. Do you think this will affect the boot picker when updating the system? Normally a "macOS Update" or "macOS Installer" option shows up on Boot Picker.
