deeveedee Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) I am blown away by the amount of debugging info provided by OpenCore to help diagnose boot issues. For those who are interested, this is good reading. If you haven't tried it, it's worth an experiment just to see the incredible detail provided in the debug reporting. EDIT: The OpenCore 0.8.8 LegacyBoot issue with HfsPlusLegacy.efi has been resolved here. Many thanks to Vit9696 and others who implemented the fix.

deeveedee Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I can read the comments associated with new HfsPlus.efi and HfsPlusLegacy.efi here, but I don't understand. What does "Fix W^X for firmware drivers for ExFat and HFS+" mean and what specifically do these new drivers fix? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miliuco Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 @deeveedee I can't help to you giving an explanation (not know), but this change was caused by this issue: https://github.com/acidanthera/bugtracker/issues/2190 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeveedee Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Thank you, @miliuco. I was a "victim" of the issue and had to revert to the previous HfsPlusLegacy.efi for the temporary fix. I was just wondering what specifically was broken and then fixed. Not urgent, but curious in case anyone knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miliuco Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 @deeveedee I'm curious too. Not found enough info yet. Maybe @Stefanalmare can say anything more, he also knows the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aben Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 @deeveedee @miliuco As far as I understand (in layman terms): OC 0.8.8 shipped with a new PE loader that broke legacy boot due to the loader's built-in security feature (W^X) breaking compatibility with legacy drivers; to resolve this, OC's PE image loader and the affected drivers' permissions parameters were patched accordingly (092af5d and c2a9898) to restore compatibility for legacy boot. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miliuco Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 @aben @deeveedee This is a new world for me, I still thought that the Portable Executable format is Windows specific even though I have read in the past that there are ways to use them on Unix systems as well. I have to learn more things 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miliuco Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) About this change in OpenCore, it is not clear to me if you also have to download the new versions of the drivers HfsPlusLegacy and ExFatDxeLegacy (the one/s that are necessary), available in Acidanthera, or if it is enough with the changes applied in OpenCore.

deeveedee Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) VoodooPS2Controller.kext 2.3.3 is working perfectly for me - Thank you developers! I had stopped waking my Hackbookpro with a keypress, because an older version of VoodooPS2Controller would insert stray characters in the password field after waking (as though there was a stuck key). Using VoodooPS2Controller.kext 2.3.3, I am able to wake my hack by pressing a key on the PS2 keyboard without any problems. I am so impressed with how well my hacks are working with OC0.8.8 and the latest Acidanthera kexts. Can't say enough how much I appreciate all the work of the Acidanthera developers. Thank you.

deeveedee Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) @STLVNUB I stopped reviewing your config.plist after seeing that you have an ACPI > Patch that renames HPET._CRS->XCRS, but you don't have a corresponding ACPI > Add that defines a new HPET._CRS. Also not sure why you define OemTableId = <00000000> for the ACPI patch. If I were to guess, I'd say your config.plist is needs work. EDIT: Your config.plist looks to be derived from a config.plist generated by Open Core Legacy Patcher pre-version 0.5.2. Is it your intent to use this config.plist to enable new macOS on an old hack? Also, some characteristics of the config.plist suggest that your hack is a Dell PC? Is that correct? Edited January 23, 2023 by deeveedee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eSaF Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 @STLVNUB - Hi, try this EFI Folder on a spare USB, you'll have to put your Machine's data in the Config.plist, ROM, S/N etc or you can use it to compare the settings within to your own to see what is different.
