Clover General discussion

[teeodor]

Hi,i try to boot with clover but i have kp.

I install it and try to boot with -v -f -x acpi=off but with no success.

I have an asus k53sc,the clover load anyway if i put yes or no in uefi boot in bios.

I don't understand what is the problem.

With chamaleon it's ok,now i boot with a usb key with chamaleon

[crusher]

I mean Clover does not use -f !!!!

[Zenith432]

I cannot get boot1f32 to work on a USB stick

Keep getting

b1f: init

b1f: error

 

I've examined the boot code in detail, and the on-stick FAT32 structures (BPB, root directory) - and AFAICT, it should work.  The only possible reason is failing is because it's getting back errors from the BIOS sector reads.  I even renamed the boot file from 'boot' to 'BOOT' (the installer made it lowercase - the code compares upcase).

 

Yes, HFS driver has no write capability. You may have success if you make USB flash drive with two partitions: FAT32 and HFS+. Install Clover to the first one and OSX installation place into second.

Other way if you make USB stick with only FAT32 partition, without OSX just to have Clover on it and get debug.log.

Hi, I searched a lot without success...

There is a step by step guide on how to migrate from Chamelon/Chimera to Clover for old BIOS -NO UEFI - (possibilmente in italiano )? 

Thanks a lot

Hey guys. So after posting this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?/topic/301833-nVidia-Gfx-Kexts-%3D-Random-KP-after-updating-to-Yosemite-10%2E10-%28MAS%29-from-GM

 

...I realized that I also updated to the latest Clover during the upgrading process, and I was wondering if these new issues are being caused by Clover? Or are they indeed caused by the MAS version of Yosemite? Thanks for any input. Appreciate it as always.

The AppleACPIPlataform.kext that's shipped with Yosemite causes a bug in Gigabyte 6 and x58 series motherboards. Mine is a GA-H67MA-USB3-B3.

 

The bug appears as a "PCI configuration begin" hang during boot.

 

No boot flag fixes this issue (like npci=0x2000 or 0x3000, PCIRootUID=1 or 0).

 

So, I've found in TonyMacx86 site that this is a new bug introduced with the new version of AppleACPIPlataform.kext shipped with Yosemite.

The solution is to simply replace the 10.10 kext with a 10.9.5 kext.

 

I've made a backup of AppleACPIPlataform.kext from 10.10 and installed the 10.9.5 kext. The problem has been fixed.

 

I was trying to inject the 10.9.5 kext with Clover without having to mess with /S/L/E, but since there's already an AppleACPIPlataform.kext in /S/L/E, I can't inject the same kext with Clover.

 

One solution that doesn't involve changing the kext in /S/L/E would be to patch it. The problem is that I don't know what are the differences between AppleACPIPlataform.kext 10.10 and 10.9.5 versions, so I don't know what string I should patch.

 

Anyone with experience in patching kexts by using Clover knows if it's possible to patch 10.10 AppleACPIPlataform.kext to work like the 10.9.5 version?

Hope someone get the key.

I may propose that new AAP don't like old DSDT as you have. The kext is responsible for interpreting DSDT. Did you try to patch it by Clover?

Your screenshot tell me that your DSDT is wrong.

But you said that Clover started from UEB flash formatted to HFS+? So block read is working? The problem is in the stick. Or in format. Try to reformat it by diskutility.

question about config.plist,now I can't shut down yosemite completely use clover,but when I delete config.plist,it shut down well,I don't know which key cause this problem,thus I don't use -v kext-dev-mode=1 in config.plist,why I still can boot yosemite,if don't use kext-dev-mode=1 clover shouldn't load fakesmc.kext.

I install Yosemite on usb flash drive with clover,when it shows AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext it get reboot.I don't know how I fixed this to modify config.plist.

I use VMware Fusion 7 and Parellels Desktop 10 for bootcamp win7 on my SSD,but when I choose bootcamp and import I got this,can't boot win7.How to fix this?

Do you mean to patch my DSDT.aml file?

 

I've used MaciASL to simply extract my DSDT and compile it. Actually I've tried MacMan MaciASL repository, but didn't find any specific patch for my motherboard.

 

Do you know any good repository for MaciASL?

I put my dsdt (the one that i used with chamaleon) in /EFI/CLOVER/acpi/patched

I have tried also with delete dsdt.

Is it normal that i see efi partition only when i install clover? When i restart there isn't the clover partition in finder

Hi everyone !

 

I'm looking for a way to FAKE the ID of my BT Controller.

 

If you want to see why :

 

I just received my new BCM94352, and WIFI and BT are OK (WIFI with SSDT and BT with Toleda's kext in EFI/Clover/Kext/).

As expected I don't have HandOff, and have been searching why.

Skvo seems to confirm that the Product/Vendor IDs of the BT are responsible for this (according to google translation ...)

Which confirm what we have seen previously on Netkas forums (BCM94360 with bad BT IDs don't have HandOff)

 

 

I've read a lot of things (since my first hackintosh in 2008), especially the entire Clover wiki and here are my conclusions :

- DSDT patch is impossible because BT is under USB in ACPI
- Kext edition doesn't fake ID, it just inject new IDs for support of a new product (non apple ones)
- There was a way to flash BCM4322 to genuine Apple IDs (using B43 on Linux but it doesn't support BCM4352 and only applies for WIFI not BT)

- Clover doesn't have an FAKE BT option because BT is under USB in ACPI
- Clover has a "AddProperties" function which Itried with "USB" as device and I didn't manage to make it fake IDs ...

 

Is there a way to do that ? Did I miss something ?

about duplicity of Recovery HD on clover GUI....

I've updated my main drive from Mavericks to Yosemite.

 

Now there's a little problem with Clover GUI, because it shows both their icons though there is no more Mavericks installation.

Does anyone have the same problem and knows how i can get rid of the "false" Mavericks icon ?

 

Thanks in advance

[Maniac10]

@polkaholga: Post a boot.log please.

I'm using MaciADSL an PJALM repository to patch my DSDT.

 

I know that I should firstly delete any DSDT.aml (and reboot) before patching the DSDT.

 

But what about those ACPI/DSDT/Fixes entries in the config.plist of Clover? Should I delete the Fixes dictionary before patching DSDT?

 

I've tried to delete the whole Fixes dict and the DSDT.aml file that I already had. The system has booted fine, but after 1~2 minutes, it freezes and reboots.

 

So I had to put the Fixes dict back and boot again (still without the old DSDT.aml file). This time the system didn't freeze and I could patch my DSDT with MaciASL.

 

I don't know if those Fixes entries have some kind of influence during DSDT extraction of MaciASL.

Never mind, the mysterious icon is gone ! Thanks anyway....

I  am new to Clover EFI boot loader because it was the only boot loader that I can install Mavericks into my Lenovo ThinkServer  TS140 which I am using as main work station.

CPU: Xeon E3 1250 V3

Video: Integrated Intel HD4600

Chipset: Intel  226

 

Mavericks running fine. I have one question. Config.plist clearly marked kernel PM Patch yet every time I boot up, early reboot happens. I have to manually check kernel PM patch under patching binary through option when Clover boot loader boot up to get to OS X. Anyone has any suggestion how to fix this. Also HD4600 not recognized and Xeon CPU also not recognized. Any help or guide for further reading and fixing would be highly appreciated. Right if I use integrated graphics HD4600, I can only use one monitor. to use more than one monitor, I install a discrete Nvidia GTX 650 Ti boost 2GB video card.

question about config.plist,now I can't shut down yosemite completely use clover,but when I delete config.plist,it shut down well,I don't know which key cause this problem,thus I don't use -v kext-dev-mode=1 in config.plist,why I still can boot yosemite,if don't use kext-dev-mode=1 clover shouldn't load fakesmc.kext.

I install Yosemite on usb flash drive with clover,when it shows AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext it get reboot.I don't know how I fixed this to modify config.plist.

When I delete config.plist,the camera doesn't work,when I use config.plist,the shutdown doesn't work,config.plist should be a problem.

Anyway I figured it out myself.

 

Here is what I had to do. Change the Key AddDTGP_0001 to false to solve shutdown problem.

 

<key>AddDTGP_0001</key>

<false/>

There is a similar case

in wiki said this is switch for all fixes.

 

in my case FixShutdown_0004 should be set to false to shut down to let  reboot Problem vanished

<key>Fixes</key>

<dict>

        <key>FixShutdown_0004</key>

        <false/>

</dict>

Change the Key FixOwnership to false to solve camera problem.

 

<key>FixOwnership</key>

<true/>

 

But I in wiki I don't find what FixOwnership stand for.

My problem with boot1f32 is bios-related, because I was able to boot the very same stick on another system, and generate debug.log

But you said that Clover started from UEB flash formatted to HFS+? So block read is working? The problem is in the stick. Or in format. Try to reformat it by diskutility.

There is a SATA RAID controller
 

10:654  0:117  PCI (00|00:1F.02) : 8086 282A class=010400

 
And there's a SATA disk on it, but it's not detected.

Yes, I see. Currently Sata driver in Clover see no HD on your raid. I will look sources what may be  a mistake. 

Are you sure the virtual drive is controlled by the same AHCI command as single drive? Or there are special BIOS INT commands?

Chameleon works by INT commands that corresponds to my boot7.

[Zenith432]

What virtual drive? There is no actual RAID scheme, just controller in RAID mode  The log was generated on laptop with legacy bios.  There is an Intel SATA in the chipset configured in RAID mode, and there is a SATA hard disk connected to it as an ordinary drive.

 

AFAIK, when Intel controller is in RAID mode, it is upward compaible from AHCI mode - which mean operating it as an AHCI mode - chip would work.  In fact, I patch (via DSDT) the PCI device ID to indicate AHCI mode for Apple's AHCI driver - while the chip is in RAID mode - and it works.

 

The drive is of course accessible using Int 13 bios function as bios device number.  This is how Chameleon boots, and how Windows boots.

I don't know if there are special Int 13 functions for RAID mode - but they shouldn't be needed for simple boot.

 

I will try using boot7 (bios block io) instead of boot6 and see what happens.

 

Edit: With boot7, no SATA or USB devices are recognized.  No debug.log is generated (due to USB device not recognized), and the boot reverts back to the default Windows boot via some unknown mechanism.

 

PS, I'm still puzzled by why boot1f32 works with one bios and hangs with another, working on that too...
