now I copied my CLOVER> ACPI> patched folder to the new Clover and included the one mentioned by Slice

 

the kext I left only those present in the clover 5150 folder
and I configured Booter and Kernel Quirks with updated cloverconfigurator

 

I double checked the plist with clovervalidator and it's all Ok

 

 

I chose my USB Uefi, I entered in clover, but when I start macos high sierra it hangs at the apple without a bar and without anything else:

Next step is to produce boot log.

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.

I can propose that the hang at fix usb ownership because you have external ASMedia  USB3 controller.

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.

as you can imagine I had inserted a 3.0 pendrive in a 3.0 usb port in front of the case...

now I used a 2.0 pendrive directly in the 2.0 usb port of the motherboard and unfortunately it did not boot anyway ...
I attach the .log file

 

Thank you

kind slice, I extracted this zip file, and replaced CLOVERX64 in EFI/CLOVER/CLOVERX64.EFI
but in the zip there was only that and I didn't find a bootx64 file to replace in efi/boot/bootx64.efi...

however I booted from usb 2.0 but unfortunately the system didn't boot

I attach the .log file

I wait your response thank you

Expected... No, no, no....

Make a copy of the file CLOVERX64.efi. There will be second file. Rename it to BOOTX64.EFI.

Copy it to your bootable EFI  replacing existing BOOTX64.EFI.

But I see wrong commit

0:110  0:000  Starting Clover revision: 5150 (master, commit ee4d7a61b) on American Megatrends EFI

It must be at least 4a3b16 or even ff1681ad

It means you booted not same Clover as I upload for you.

Your video shows correct action but I see wrong revision again

0:107  0:000  Starting Clover revision: 5150 (master, commit ee4d7a61b) on American Megatrends EFI

I will upload to you new version at the evening.

Anyway try to switch off XHCI handoff (or something similar) in BIOS.

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.

but efi folder and macos are in nvme and cloover boot in eufi from nvme...
Anyway...but if it doesn't boot from internal efi how do I access the efi folder again?

I would however try disabling the XHCI handoff first

Try to switch off "Legacy USB support".

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.

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?
