OpenCore General Discussion

@davidm71

if you use OC 0.5.8 nightly build, you should have to add the following eintries in your config.plist under UEFI:

 

<key>APFS</key>
		<dict>
			<key>EnableJumpstart</key>
			<true/>
			<key>HideVerbose</key>
			<true/>
			<key>JumpstartHotPlug</key>
			<false/>
			<key>MinDate</key>
			<integer>0</integer>
			<key>MinVersion</key>
			<integer>0</integer>
		</dict>

than it should work for you. If you are still on OC 0.5.7 you need APFS driver to get APFS volumes recogniced

Ok thank you. Will try to enable the plist entries and see what happens. Thanks.

You're several problem with your folder structure:

• remove boot and bootlex.log, keep EFI folder 
• put Resources folder in OC directory 

On your screenshot, your USB Toshiba is formatted MBR, why? macOS recognize your key as Internal drive? Try to recreate USB Installer from createinstallmedia method with GPT/macOS journalized pen drive for example.

Problem Slove thank you there are issue with my MB and M.2 970 Evo

Hi,

Somebody manage to boot on a HP4540s?

I only sees EFIs folders in picker. I know my usb flash drive with opencore on it works, for instance on HP 1012 X2.

Will not work if ScanPolicy set to 0. Also, this feature does not work as show/hide like in Clover. Only shows, does not hide back again.

Exactely right 

Any idea for solution

Not quite true.

Two different problems.

1. ScanPolicy=0 works for without any problems. I set default using System Preferences->Startup disk

2. OpenCanopy is NOT finished yet so Show/Hide is probably not finished either. As you were reminded here a few times and it is mentioned in the Configuration.pdf: "WARNING: OpenCanopy is currently considered experimental and is not recommended for everyday use. Refer to acidanthera/bugtracker#759 for more details regarding the current limitations."

There is no solution to this. Cause this feature not added for this behavior.

First of all, we are not talking about ScanPolicy. We are mention about HideAuxialiary feature and this is not part of the OpenCanopy. Yes, it is working with OpenCanopy but not specially created for OpenCanopy.

Yes, I confirm. I am now able to select the APFS volume for installation with the OpenCore debug package you provided and smbios MacBookPro13,1; earlier it did not allow me to select the APFS volume.

I did not however continued with the installation as I had already upgraded my installation with the workaround (using smbios MacBookPro14,1).

 

Many thanks for your help. 

Fixed in DataBase.

Hi[...] and disparaged by one of the developers for not knowing.

I don't know whether that was a generic "the", but for the case it was not, Pavo has nothing to do with OC and is not an OC developer.

[Pavo]

But I keep up-to-date with current changes being made to the "master" branch of OC. You don't have to be part of the "click" or a "OC developer" to know what commits are being made.

Sorry but you really need to read your own posts.

You first wrote "Will not work if ScanPolicy set to 0." So first of all your ARE talking about ScanPolicy and what you quoted was incorrect.

 

Regarding OpenCanopy, do NOT change the subject to HideAuxiialiary which was NEVER mentioned by me or by @anmool. He asked about ExternalGUI and Space button to hide/unhide partitions and that's why I mentioned OpenCanopy.

 

Then, to say "there is no solution this" is not correct. I mentioned the solution. Do not say it is not a solution without verifying.

 

You did not read his posts correctly (which was not even directed to you but to one of the Devs), but you jumped in and gave wrong advice. 

 

Please read people's post first and if English is not your first language then read it again to make sure you understand correctly and if you don't understand, then don't make a comment - certainly do not to give advice you do not know for sure.

I do apologize. I apparently spoke in error. Will correct the comment. Have the highest respect for the developer community. I am finding Opencore a wonderful product and thank you for your hard work.

I dont want to argue with you but you have no idea what you're talking about. He is talking about HideAuxiliary feature here;

 

So he confirmed my answer here; Why

If ScanPolicy is set to 0, the HideAuxiliary feature will lose its function. And he thought this feature works like Clover. But it is not so. This feature performs only the function of showing, not hiding. And there is no solution for this.

 

And you must read the guide first before writing;

 

 

And this is not related with the OpenCanopy.

 

Extra note for you;

There is no other feature that you can use Spacebar in OpenCore.

 

Now you have learned what @anmool is talking about and why I gave him that answer.

No, HideAuxiliuary working on External GUI which I am using without any problem. But if you set ScanPolicy 0 it will not work as I said to you before. I am using my Hackintosh like real mac behavior. If I want to reach my drive while booting I am just hold down the Opt key. And I am seeing my External GUI and my default drive. Then pressing the Spacebar shows my hidden drivers and tools, and my default driver is still selected. But when you set ScanPolicy to 0, you will see all your hidden drivers, but HideAuxiliray will be disabled automatically even if you set YES. Because there are no drivers to show. All of them are already visible.

 

I also had asked the developer this hide back option a long time ago. And the answer I got was that they didn't think of anything like this.

 

For the picture try CleanNVRAM.

But you should be an OC dev to be called an OC dev in a public post, especially if it's a personal negative reception. We had the case before that we were called "derogatory facists", and the first name when dropped (later magically corrected) upon request who they meant was someone we never even spoke to at all. I don't want to hear such nonsense in public, end of topic.
