jsl Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 It's downloadable opening Ares.app->Enoch you cannot see it? r2824: boot.zip Thanks for such a great Mac OS boot-loader (Enoch v.2829) which can boot MacOS 10.12 successfully for my hackintosh now. Before this I can only use Clover to boot it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsl Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Updates are frequent lately .. same as r2824 + something by ErmaC However there is a bug of this 2824/2829 version for my hackintosh: It can boot successfully with kernelcache, but -f can not load kexts in /S/L/E or /E/E. So I must apply previous 2795 version to load kexts and complete its kernelcache at present. I don't know anyone else had the same trouble as mine ?

Micky1979 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Guys I've updated Enoch to r2830, downloadable with Pandora->Ares. Tested in 10.7.5, 10.10.5, 10.11.6 and 10.12. Here is now ok.

Micky1979 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 @crazybirdy a new test (if you want): usb pen drive with Enoch r2830 installed. Extra folder with /Extra/Extensions/Common and /Extra/Extensions/10.12 (or also 10.10 etc), kexts inside. No kexts inside /Extra/Extensions/ if not inside mentioned directories. As a test, you should not have any other Extra on the root of the partition you want to boot. Please report PS (started working on your request... we will see the result....) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calibre™ Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 kernel.plist has been implemented? still none in trunk/ErmaC branch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazybirdy Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 still none in trunk/ErmaC branch? You can get the Enoch version from download sec. with kernel.plist function. In my opinion, I think, it's not necessary to publish to svn, that keeps Enoch unique. :thumbsup_anim: ps: trunk can still boot 10.12 with prelinkedkernel or patched kernel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch_de Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Hi, anyone got NvidiaWeb drivers loaded with Sierra final? Seems that nvda_drv=1 not working anymore Clover has some changes and use new way to get it working Got it fixed using the nvram ... dlib (in /Extra/modules) plus the NvramFile.kext (in /L/E) and setting sudo nvram nvda_drv=1. EDIT: After installing both, the .dlib in /EXTRA/modules and the .kext in /L/E ( i think it is enough, better to install it only in /L/E , for me works in El Capitan und Sierra this way), nothing change and no .plist was created. So i thougth it didnt work - but was i wrong Because the new nvram.xxxxxxxx.plist in /Extra will only (first time) created if you change or add something in the nvram by sudo nvram nvda_drv=1 ( sudo nvram variable value) for example. After that reboot again and now the both "plugins" read the .plist at boottime and set the nvram values read from that .plist. i uploaded the used and working set (El Captitan version): FileNVRAM_El_Capitan for chameleon.zip 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppleBytes Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Sorry but that is not bootloader related. I mean, you cannot pretend that any backup software save and restore the boot sector writed on your original disk, so that is normal, really no way. Actually, that's not really true. Mac, or should I say; BSD, provides a complete backup solution that will backup everything -- yes; even your "boot", as well as the "EFI" partition. Please have a look at dump, and restore eg; man dump, or man restore. For example, I have only one single hard drive on my AMD hackintosh. From a terminal window, if I issue ls /dev/ | grep disk it returns disk0 disk0s1 disk0s2 rdisk0 rdisk0s1 rdisk0s2 The only ones I'm interested in are those that begin with disk, which I can dump to an external USB drive, or another interal drive, if I have another one available. By simply booting to single user mode. I can then later either restore these partitions, or simply restore them to an entirely different disk, effectively cloning the original installation. Please also see the mount command, as it will also be a necessary part of the operation. If I can find the time, I'll write an entire dump && restore session. It's an amazingly short, and simple operation. All the best to you. --Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You confirm what I said: not bootloader related, plus the "boot" file is not what we were talking about, that is the easy part and also Carbon Copy Cloner is able to backup it (since is only a file on the filesystem).. so you have to re-write the partition boot sector and the mbr. That was the problem, and they cannot be transplanted on any other disk w/o destroy the existing partition map on the destination: in fact you can use dd (see man dd), to make a clone of any disk (to restore the backup you have to destroy everythings..) but the disk will be bootable also. and If you are able to boot into single user mode, why not log-in instead and reinstall it with the package installer that is more easy?

Thank you very much for such an advice. Thanks. I edited my post ( some above) and uploaded the NVRAM set (chameleon) for El Capitan+ (works also in Sierra) and how it works. Because of no information about how it works, i missed the generated .plist at first boot after adding the NVRAM set. But it gets created only after adding some nvram value with sudo nvram variable value - that was nowhere documented 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LockDown Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 if the /Extra/nvram.xxxxxxxxx.plist is only a xml, would it be easy to have nvram working as we only edit it and let cham read it? like nvram.plist of clover is just a plain xml where you can manually edit it and clover will execute it.

mitch_de Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I think you can edit the nvram....plist (generated by the .dlyb + .kext). By hand (i use plistEditor) or by the nvram command. Next boot it will be read and used like your edits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it gets created only after adding some nvram value with sudo nvram variable value - that was nowhere documented Unfortunately it works for Asus Z87 with GTX-980 or GTX-960 in 10.12.1, but not working for Asus X99 with GTX-960. Applied the same method and files no lucky for X99 with GTX-960 yet ! Hope someone can solve it as soon as possible. I think it's related to incompatibility of X99A/USB 3.1 MB instead of Nvidia GTX-9xx cards or Nvidia Web Drivers.

jsl Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Can you test this and provide the bdmesg log? Enoch_2840_TEST_boot.zip Thx ErmaC Hi, ErmaC: Thanks for your prompt reply. However booting with this new 2840 version failed in two Hackintosh: in X99A: after booting it will freeze with blank screen. in P6TSE: after showing [ACPI Patching] it will instantly reboot. Can you (or someone else) fix it ? I think it's due to X99A's incompatibility to FileNVRAM function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
