Set in config Boot->Debug=true and try to boot the system. It will be very slow, wait 10 minutes and then look into /EFI/CLOVER/misc. There should be new ***.log file. Upload it here for me to look.

Try to switch off USB handoff in BIOS if possible. Or switch off FixOwnership in config.plist but then you will encounter a stop at "waiting for root...". Try to insert your USB stick into USB2 port on motherboard not into ASMedia. The better way if your EFI folder will be in internal SATA drive then booting process will not depend on USB. If not help then wait until I will prepare a clover version doing no FixOwnership on ASmedia controller.

bronxteck Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 sometimes in older bios if you boot from usb the bios still uses the internal efi path to boot. it will start from usb but then switch path during boot process. try only using internal efi. back up existing internal to usb in case. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/page/2/#findComment-2798176 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeveedee Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Definitely agree with @bronxteck . I had this problem with my Dell Latitude E6410. I ended up abandoning use of a bootable USB and had to do all of my EFI debugging by editing EFI on the SSD. Since my Dell Latitude E6410 has an aux bay, I was able to have a backup EFI on the SSD in the aux bay which saved me when I screwed up the EFI in my primary drive bay.

Anto65 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Since you also have Windows installed Try copying the new EFI directly to the disk's EFI partition (nvme) (backup your working one...

Anto65 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 You can mount the EFI partition (in case of problems) from windows with MiniTool Partition Wizard... just assign a drive letter... and navigate with Explorer++ (as Admin) to navigate, replace the EFI folder 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/354810-help-upgrade-high-sierra-to/page/2/#findComment-2798229 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see in your log good Clover version but you started HighSierra? 142:095 0:113 GetOSVersion: 10.13.5 (17F77) Is it too old for such hardware? Also try temporary disable some kexts except Lilu+VirtualSMC. I can also propose use one kext FakeSMC instead.

Montelli Posted December 5, 2022 Author Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) the version I have is high sierra 10.13.5 and I thought I'd give it other try, I took the efi folder that I use for high sierra and put it in the usb and so it boot... at this point I think there is something wrong with the new cloover? because with the usb it actually starts if I use the high sierra efi... in all this I disabled the Legacy USB support and tried again with the new cloover but it didn't boot... I attach the log file 2022-12-05_11-22_BOOTX64.EFI.log to disable kexts, just leave VirtualSMC and Lilu in Other folder?
