Andrw0380 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Hey guys, I have 2 HDD in my laptop (1 NVME Windows/Ubuntu and 1 SATA Mac install with OC EFI). OpenCore will show my Windows login with ScanPolicy=0, but when trying to use it, it comes up 'System BootOrder not found. Initializing defaults." What would the reason for that be? Is it because my Windows install is on a different boot device then my OC install or that each drive has it's own EFI folder with different Boot\bootx64.efi? I just need clarification on why this is happening as I do want the choice to be able to boot into Windows from OC. Clover does allow me to boot into both Windows and Ubuntu.

Well there are a few things from what I can see that are wrong. - SSDT for SAT0 device isn't correct. - Looks like you are using FakeSMC and VirtualSMC at the same time. One one or the other but not both. - Whatever driver you are using for Accusys is messed up. Without knowing what system specs are I can't determine what is wrong and right.

I've been trying to replace "ShowPicker" with "Default" in the OC configuration, because I'd like to get a vanilla experience. In particular, I'd like to start MacOS by default, occasionally switching to Windows through the startup utility. As far as I understand, the option "Default" should do the trick. Unfortunately, it is not working. I select "Macintosh HD" from the startup utility, but when I reboot the following error pops up: OCS: No schema for Default at 3 index!

And boy is it faster! It's very very faster compared to Clover even in its beta stages!!! Great job and kudos to the developers behind this.

UefiBooter Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) To enable StartupDisk Pane to select the 'Default' boot option you need #1 Working NVRAM #2 RequestBootVarRouting set to TRUE #3 FwRuntimeServices.efi loaded. RequestBootVarRouting This quirk requires OC_FIRMWARE_RUNTIME protocol implemented in FwRuntimeServices.efi. The quirk lets default boot entry preservation at times when firmwares delete incompatible boot entries. Simply said, you are required to enable this quirk to be able to reliably use Startup Disk preference pane in a firmware that is not compatible with macOS boot entries by design.

birdbird Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I'm trying to migrate to OpenCore from Clover. I took my existing install, got rid of the Clover folder, set up the OC folder according to the Vanilla Guide, and also copied over the BOOT folder from the 0.51 zip file. The only thing (AFAIK) I did different from the Vanilla Guide was keeping my existing DSDT and SSDT, which I use to get my overclock used. When I boot into my Mac SSD, it just hangs at the BIOS screen. No further information, just the POST and then it sits there. As such, I'm stumped. Possibilities: My old SSDT and/or DSDT causing problems Something about the BOOTx64.efi file? Should I have kept the old one? Old NVRAM or some other thing hidden about which I need to clear out Things have changed with Catalina and the OC Vanilla Guide is out of date? I'm running a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H with an 3570k and RX 580 video card. I've been using this as a hackintosh for years, so hopefully I can keep doing so!
