I dont know if its possible to run the chameleon.pkg installer from an install USB stick.

The only way would be to run the Terminal before of the install process.

cd / 
sudo /usr/sbin/installer -pkg /path/to/pkg.pkg -target /   (- traget must be your /Volumes/xxxxx/ )

 

I dont know if that command above works also from the install USB stick ( su password ???)

@crazybirdy: For some reasons I'm still using old MBR scheme, if you could share patched "OSInstall" framework binary for MBR under 10.13 is great appreciated. Thanks. :)  

 

I made the MBR patch yesterday.

 

But we can't pass the OSInstall.mpkg error with MBR installer first.

We can boot to the MBR installer language selection GUI, but still can't start the installer, so, I did not upload it.

If you want to try it, here as attached with Enoch_2884 support 10.13 modified by myself.

 

[deleted:OSInstaller(MBR)10.13.db1.17A264c_Enoch2884.zip]

 

The 2884_boot with 10.13 kernel patcher works fine to boot MBR installer disk, and installed system disk(installed with clover 4082).

 

The OSInstall.mpkg error kills the MBR installer. :(

As I remembered, 10.12 has the same issue if I modify OSInstall.mpkg, so since 10.12, I only patched the OSInstaller for MBR, keep OSInstall.mpkg untouched in order to bypass the error.

 

I think, maybe some framework is checking the OSInstall.mpkg, need to find it out, and patch it. :yes:

But, I have no idea.

[edit 2017.6.17]

Finally, I found a way to install to MBR directly with stage2 automated disk which made by High Sierra beta Installer.app.

Need more patch for OSInstaller, and need make Basesystem boot disk with MBR patch to load the stage2 automated disk with /macOS Install Data/ to finish the MBR installation.

 

Will upload the new MBR patch with How-To to download section later, when I have free time. :thumbsup_anim:

 

[edit 2017.6.18]

upload new MBR patch to downlaod section with Enoch 2884.

APFS is not supported by Chameleon/Enoch to date. But I'm sure it'll come soon.

 

I can't do to much for the new filesystem... until the source will be available/released... or some reverse (I'm not able to do that)

Iv seen that the trunk has been synced 15 days ago against your Enoch (set aside the latest device IDs update, kernel patch review by CrazyBirdy). is that mean that they now have same features, or Enoch still has more to offer?

As I know, kernel and kexts patcher are only available for Enoch.

As already mentioned by crazybirdy the main trunk don't have Kexts and Kernel patcher,

 

Also other changes like:

- embedded FakeSMC

- new ati IDs and chipset definition

- new nvidia IDs

- device detection for Hight Sierra. (GUI)

 

PS: the High Sierra default icons are still not available... (iDeviceHFS_hsi, iDeviceHFS_hsi_o) the code is ready... but the .png not

(device_hfsfusion_hsi_o.png device_hfsfusion_hsi.png)

anyone?

I don't have details for the font and or text projection details on the HDD icons; I'm afraid all HSi logos I make therefore differ from existing ones, so it does not look good.  :(

 

No problem Hervé... let's see if blackosx can create it...

 

ps: I don't see major problem with the 2885 test version... (the APFS is other story)...

I'm going to update the svn and the pre-build package.. soon..

I've been away so thanks for waiting. Here you are.

attachicon.gifChameleon Default Theme High Sierra Devices.zip

 

Well done for having a go Hervé. For ref, the font is Lucida Grande Bold. However, the icons are generated in Cinema4D so it would be difficult to get a decent match other software.

 

 

Thx guys.

Perfect! blackosx!

 

I upload it to the svn.... I'm going to rename it from xxx_hsie_xxx to xxx_hsi_xxx (I already wrote and commited the code in this way)

Relate to Chameleon Wizard... If the provided data are not updates I can't do to much (I mean nothing...)

 

The embedded value provided by the bootloader are very old (2014 If I remember correctly)

and the code need a "huge" update will be a good option "port" the Clover SMBios function...

 

And other story is... the values provided by the smbios.plist are correctly readed?
