chris1111 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Please check my post above... I would strongly suggest adding the SMfirmwarefeatures and SMfirmwarefeaturesmask keys. In your case, the correct values should be SMfirmwarefeatures = 0xE00FE137 SMfirmwarefeaturesmask = 0xFF1FFF3F (again convert it to decimal before putting it in smbios.plist ) Thank you @MinusZwei I forgot your mention SMfirmwarefeatures and the SMfirmwarefeaturesmask I will try soon EDIT ** what converter i need to use for conversion ? 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/231075-chameleon-24svn-official-pkg-installer/page/168/#findComment-2516990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 EDIT ** what converter i need to use for conversion ? One of the most complicated one that exists called a calculator The firmware features and mask values are mentioned in hexadecimal (base 16) in clover source code, and Enoch is not able to read 0xXXX values. Therefore you have to convert the hexadecimal value like 0xE00FE137 to its decimal (base 10) value and place this number in your plist file. For example 0xE00FE137 in hex is 3759137079 in decimal.

To do that is easy. Open your plist with a plist editor, make the tag as "Number"... then paste your hex value (e.g. 0xE00FE137). The conversion will be automatic!

Guest Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Btw, I am currently preparing a patch for Enoch that will also accept hex values in plist files... I don't think I am the only one annoyed by having to convert all int values to decimal first However, I first wants to quickly test it before submitting the patch to ErmaC Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/231075-chameleon-24svn-official-pkg-installer/page/168/#findComment-2517265 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badruzeus Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Legacy Enoch r2905 successfully boots my HFS+ 10.13.2 Beta (17C60c), thanks @ErmaC. I have a question: I full erased an USB FlashDisk using GUID - HFS+ to be used for bootloader only (with Enoch as a name). On install wizard, I select it as target volume but "Install in the ESP" option is checked. Is it normal that "boot" binary && /Extra folder placed on "Enoch" partition instead of ESP (EFI)..? TIA.

The issue is that to install High Sierra i have used Clover Install USB instead of Enoch ... It's just what I did. Actually Enoch 2905 boots it perfectly but I have crashes on browsers an mail. But this is offtopic. BTW I didn' t install Enoch or Extra folder on the High Sierra HD. I boot from the main HD with Sierra and Enoch 2905.

ErmaC Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 I guess it needs new developments... At present, I've found no other solution than a Clover USB key to boot the "install macOS from..." partition & complete fresh High Sierra installations and/or updates... Enoch does not see/show such temporary partitions (in a similar way it cannot boot Recovery partitions). Once the High Sierra installation and/or update has completed CoreStorage been reverted the cache been rebuilt Enoch can then boot the High Sierra partition again. give it a try... (not tested...) v2905 --> removed I add the "macOS Install Data" entry into disk.c ErmaC 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/231075-chameleon-24svn-official-pkg-installer/page/168/#findComment-2545399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
