Hi, I am trying to boot recovery partition but getting this error where it stops going further. I am able to boot Catalina 10.15.1 just fine.

46:389 00:048 OCB: Matched default boot option: Awesome Drive
46:437 00:048 OCB: Initial default is 3
50:996 04:558 OCB: Should boot from Recovery 10.15.1 (T:2|F:1)
55:461 04:464 OCRAM: Extent allocation of 498540537 bytes (A) gave 100000000 (avoid high 0)

Any help?

You can add OpenCore Shell.efi to tools, Launch shell, manually execute  VerifyMsrE2.efi (it is located in fs0:/EFI/OC/Tools/ or fs1:/EFI/OC/Tools/) in the shell. 

Calling it from Shell worked perfectly! Thanks for that!

I have Catalina 10.15 on 2 different drive's.

One running the latest Clover version and the other OC 0.5.1

 

I had the drive with OC 0.5.1 working perfectly fine. I just updated OC from 0.5.1 to 0.5.2 (before I did the update, I did backup the entire EFI folder for safety).

 

Now after the update, when i restarted the system, I come to the Boot selection options and it stays there even after I select the correct drive with OC.

I don't see anything happening, or any progress. Earlier I could see the verbose screen.

 

I am unable to restart the system using Ctrl+Alt+Del. Only hard reset restarts the PC.

 

I am new to OC and just beginning to get the grasp of it. I can try replacing the back EFI folder and see if I can get back into the system.

But I prefer to figure out where the problem might be and fix it.

 

Can someone help me out on this?

You are missing a ton of sections in your config and in the EFI>OC folder structure. Read the doc and look at the folder structure and compare to this, you will see what you are missing. Also take the Sample.plist and compare to yours, you will see what is missing. Main thing to remember about OC config is that all parent and child sections in the config are mandatory but mainly all key:values in the Quirks section are mandatory to be in the config. OC added somethings in the config going from 0.5.1 to 0.5.2.

Thank you Pavo for your quick response.

 

I will do my best to figure it out. :thumbsup_anim:

Thank you Pavo I managed to fix the boot issues. Now my OC system is working fine, also updated macOS to Catalina 10.15.1 (19B88)

Hello all!

Updated my bios today and was suddenly running in to huge problems. OC doesn't boot and I can't downgrade my bios. Everything was working perfect with the old (1202) bios and OC 0.5.2.

Can anybody have a look att my attached log please?

Many thanks, it answers my curious. Now may I ask about "config.plist - Misc - Entries"...

With 10.13.6 (HFS+) I'm able to boot using this custom "Path":


PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x2)/Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0)/HD(3,GPT,C456A6F1-04EB-46FC-9D03-A72480F3FC3B,0x50EA800,0xBF68000)/\System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi

But with 10.14.x - 10.15 (APFS) it won't boot with:


PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1F,0x2)/Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0)/HD(5,GPT,82C9F5B0-9BE3-4ABC-9DC1-D0241EEB93B2,0x11188800,0x4082800)/VenMedia(BE74FCF7-0B7C-49F3-9147-01F4042E6842,42110296967A1A469B7D207A294F0602)/\A3897DBE-ECFB-4EF4-91EC-0F7E28C2E7F3\System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi

These paths are taken from OpenCore boot logs when using "Misc - Security - ScanPolicy: 0x003F0002" < This one actually works just fine, but on my case I'm trying with Custom Entries and prevent OC from scanning with ScanPolicy=0x00000001.

Is it possible using custom path for APFS volume, or.. if not; is it bcoz APFS Volume actually not exist (virtual)..?

 

I was also interested in using OC only with Custom Entries  ( Hiding the "Recovery" options for all OSX versions in the picker ). I was able to able to boot from the custom entries on APFS formatted drives ( NVMe & SATA ) on both Mojave & Catalina. ( see path below, taken from OC Bootlog ) However If I don't add the APFS Scan ( bit 8 ), the entries appear in the bootpicker but the image cannot be loaded. I tried several options.

At this point Custom entries for OSX become irrelevant because OSX will appear in the picker regardless.

I wish OC had an option to hide specific volumes...Maybe someone has an idea to go around it?

 

ScanPolicy :2689795 / 0X290B03

 

OSX Catalina /NVMe

PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1D,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/NVMe(0x1,A5-98-B1-81-55-38-25-00)/HD(2,GPT,F251C3AA-7ABA-4D2A-BC1E-E3EAD981644A,0x64028,0x1D161920)/VenMedia(BE74FCF7-0B7C-49F3-9147-01F4042E6842,8E8B6F004C6B484A904985395D582201)/\23CC1388-E765-4718-A905-7E64BBA6A54B\System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi

 

OSX Mojave /SATA 

PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x17,0x0)/Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0)/HD(2,GPT,6FF6D2A5-1CE9-4291-8DDB-A672DB33CBC8,0x64028,0x1D161920)/VenMedia(BE74FCF7-0B7C-49F3-9147-01F4042E6842,D5FB95EF42BFFE4CB50ABB85733FE172)/\0EBB8B8D-271C-47E8-B251-3D4DC485EFE1\System\Library\CoreServices\boot.efi

Is there any way to boot OpenCore with Secure Boot? 

I've tried to launch both BOOTx64.efi and OpenCore.efi from Shim with no luck.

 

Thanks!

I believe secure boot feature is still in the air and has not yet implemented.  

0.5.2 up and running on Z97X UD5H BK with 4790K and RX580! There is one small problem though. I can boot my Macintosh HD, Recovery and Windows without any problems. But when I want to boot to safe mode, the only thing I get in the 2nd boot phase is black screen (single user mode is working fine). Any ideas what could be the reason?  

 

Is there any chance to get Discord invitation?

Hi everyone/ I'm trying to set up OpenCore on my i5 2500k/Asus P8P67 with High Sierra. I'm not sure if it will work given the age of the hardware.

 

I've managed to configure the quirks for fwruntimeservices as I can now get past "End Randomseed". However I now get stuck here..

 

Can anyone advise what night be going wrong/what part of the config needs looking at?

 

Kind regards,

 

Pablo.

 

EDIT - Realised I have some power management issues to sort as Clover was doing it for me before.
