HyperX7 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 (edited) The program is very nice for now. It will be much better as it improves, thank you for your efforts. In my system, it constantly detects the windows boot disk. Although my boot disk is CT1000P5PSSD8, it continues to display the Samsung SSD 860 EVO 500GB disk as the boot disk. ***** There was no change after restarting the system and nvresetram.

Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @HyperX7 and @eSaF I will look into it and see if I can fix this issue. On my test rigs it detected the boot disk correctly but I guess there must be some issues to correctly detect the boot disk on other systems. Thanks for the feedback. I'll let you know when the issue is fixed. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838784 Share on other sites More sharing options...

luxinhaus Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 Huge thanks for this. One thing though... Does it really need to be on the taskbar🤔 how often do we mount it 🤔 its not a daily task.

Anto65 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 I believe the app identifies the topmost drive in the list as the boot drive. When rebooting, for example, on Windows or other systems, I don't know why the disk order changes... it happens with OCAT too ( When mounting EFIs ) , but the app always marks the topmost drive as the boot disk. Spoiler After a few reboots booting only and exclusively OC or resetting the nvram it fixes itself It's just my theory it could all be wrong 😆 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838790 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @Anto65 I conditioned the list to show the boot disk on the top of the list, maybe that's why it changes every time. The app detects the disk identifiers for each disk, checks the nvram for the boot path and marks it as the boot disk. The disk order change also happens on ESP Mounter Pro, after each reset the disk list changes. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838791 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anto65 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 (edited) Another example here, Samsung ( Windows ) is at the top of the list and the app identifies it as a boot disk 🤔 while the last one is actually where OC / OSX is Spoiler Maybe the app shouldn't take into account the position of those at the top ?

Anto65 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 (edited) It's not a big problem anyway, at least for those who know, and I think everyone, on which disk the EFI partition resides. I even renamed mine EFI-WIN , EFI-OSX , EFI-UBUNTU... I can't be wrong 😆 Edited August 10, 2025 by Anto65 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @eSaF Darn it! for now let's focus on the Apple logo for the Boot disk, I'll get into the color coding for the external disks later.

Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @eSaF I think my brain is starting to melt been working on this project for a while now and my brain doesn't wanna play along anymore Give this a try.

Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @eSaF Nah, my brain doesn't tell me what to do! I tell it what to do. Or it's the other way around I'm not sure anymore Something that I don't understand is why the app is working on my two rigs but it doesn't show the Apple Logo on your end! and why it doesn't detect the Boot Disk on your rig. If Samsung SSD 980 Pro 500GB is your bootable disk and it has OC in the EFI partition of that disk it should be marked as Boot Disk with Apple Logo instead of the generic internal hdd icon. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anto65 Posted August 10, 2025 Share Posted August 10, 2025 Which one chooses 1, 2, or 3? I'll stick with 2 (0.2) 😆 With the latest one, same results as eSaF no Boot-Disk Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/361492-efi-mounter/page/2/#findComment-2838809 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted August 10, 2025 Author Share Posted August 10, 2025 @eSaFand @Anto65 What is the value of your config.plist under Misc->Security->ExposeSensitiveData mine is set to 7 (0x07) I copied my EFI to a USB Disk and booted the system from the USB disk and the app detects that USB as Boot Disk but there are no other indications on my Samsung 1TB SSD which is normal but I think I need to rethink the macOS detection further. Can you check the value of ExposeSensitiveData and try 0x07 and see if that makes any difference?
