Clover General discussion

Second screen corresponds to apfs.efi driver is in DEBUG state.

Missing embedded icons is known issue that is still not resolved.

Downloadable icons are always good. So the problem is in icons itself. May be someone draw a better embedded theme? It should be as small as possible.

Thank you very much Slice. So how do I remove this 'Debug' state?

Much appreciated.

No way. Take apfs,efi from release OS.

If only @blackosx grants me such permission, maybe I could help to rebuilding "embedded" theme.

Same here on 4230. Extra icon in Clover. macOS 10.13.1, 17B25c, Laptop specs in sig.

- Normal

- Extra Icon.

I remember it also appeared on Clover GUI (I forgot which rev) when DP1 just seeded, we also had long conversations on "Pre-release 10.13" thread started by @arsadu asking about how to hide these volumes using UUID months ago (I lost the link). Is there another issue if these are shown, except UI.. we're able to hide them within config.plist aren't we?

SavageAUS · September 30, 2017

If you look at my screen shots you will see I have custom entries for all the normal entries but not the new one that is just added.

See commit for r4225 - adds new code for detection of /Volumes/Preboot/UUID/com.apple.installer/boot.efi.

If you mount your Preboot volume and show hidden files in Finder, you can see...

Method for hiding the new entry would be similar to hiding the Preboot Entry discussed in my guide, just adjust the path to \UUID\com.apple.installer\boot.efi.

Thanks that worked after setting the type to OSXInstaller.

Question:

If i look for nvram keys, i see that nvda_drv 1%00.

I think its made by Clover settting webdriver true?

When i switch from Web Driver to OS X default and back to Web Driver (no restart between changes) with Nvidia Menue , the nvram is set to: nvda_drv 1

After reboot again nvda_drv 1%00.

I have no probs with webdriver, they are enabled ( so the web drivers. My MB, an GA-Z77 has woring NVRAM (no emulation.efi needed).

Can this be an problem in future?

Funky frank · September 30, 2017

I have a question: If I install High Sierra using Piker Alpha's install script to circumvent the APFS conversion, so my boot SSD stays HFS, can I leave my clover installation on the system partition?

i wonder sorted the file order by name.

Slice - I've managed to get clover to build locally (Had XCode 9 installed, but gcc-4.9.3 requires ~> 8.0) and am doing to do a bisect between 4128 and 4220 to find out exactly what rev my system broke on. Once I've done that, do you mind helping me debug the changes in that revision? I suspect that'll be beyond my working knowledge of C/UEFI

ajsurin · September 30, 2017

qq - Is there a way to find out the revision of edk2 to use with each clover revision? I can build all the way down to r4224 but anything below that errors - I'm guessing my edk2 needs to be downgraded too

D-an-W · September 30, 2017

Evening folks,

Would anyone know where I might start to look into why when upgrading from r4188 to r4231 I loose my HD4000 GPU and onboard Audio please (Using the System in Sig below)?

WinstonAce · September 30, 2017

Hi

~~I used to use arbitrary properties to prevent clover auto injecting various strings~~

~~like "MaximumBootBeepVolume" "PinConfigurations" and "built-in" for various devices~~

~~now that inject is enabled even with arbitrary properties,~~

~~is there a way to make clover stop injecting these?~~

~~Thanks~~

Never mind

had to set inject to yes.

I think i understand correctly. If i build clover in 10.12.6 the installer gui shows the Drivers64UEFI in a sorted order but in 10.13 they are scrambled like in the screenshot.

ajsurin · October 1, 2017

Alrighty - I've managed to isolate the change, and it actually makes complete sense given my platform - Haswell-E

I'm working up to and including r4144 (https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/code/4144/)

4145 + 4146 (https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/code/4145/ https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/code/4146/) appear to switch over to a new form of injecting Haswell-E support and, at least for me, it doesn't work.

Slice - is it possible to revert those commits and go back to the old method? I'm going to try and code it up locally, but as mentioned I'm not used to C

Clover 4233

Slice · October 1, 2017

@Sherlocks,
Clover uses file order as File System proposed.
FAT32 file system has random order. When new file is created it will be placed on first unoccupied place. It can be in head or in tail of the file list.
HFS+ file system has strong alphabetic order.

Question:
If i look for nvram keys, i see that nvda_drv 1%00.
I think its made by Clover settting webdriver true?

When i switch from Web Driver to OS X default and back to Web Driver (no restart between changes) with Nvidia Menue , the nvram is set to: nvda_drv 1
After reboot again nvda_drv 1%00.
I have no probs with webdriver, they are enabled ( so the web drivers. My MB, an GA-Z77 has woring NVRAM (no emulation.efi needed).

Can this be an problem in future?

Do you know that the NVRAM key was changed from 10.11.6 to 10.12? I am not sure Chameleon do this.
To set Nvidia WEB Driver:
in ElCapitan - "boot-args" => "nvda_drv=1"
in Sierra - "nvda_drv" => "1"
See the difference.

qq - Is there a way to find out the revision of edk2 to use with each clover revision? I can build all the way down to r4224 but anything below that errors - I'm guessing my edk2 needs to be downgraded too

I compiled Clover with the same old EDK2 revision except the commit like "sync with EDK2 ...".

Check again if this is Clover bug and not your. Changes in config.plist. Boot in legacy UEFI. Changes in OS update and so on.

Alrighty - I've managed to isolate the change, and it actually makes complete sense given my platform - Haswell-E

I'm working up to and including r4144 (https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/code/4144/)

Sorry, see you.

@syscl

This is second claim about this change.

Slice · October 1, 2017

If only @blackosx grants me such permission, maybe I could help to rebuilding "embedded" theme.

Just make such a theme then I embed it into Clover.

I think blackosx will not protest against.

EDITED.

It must be very-very little, simple, without beauty images.

@Sherlocks,

Clover uses file order as File System proposed.

FAT32 file system has random order. When new file is created it will be placed on first unoccupied place. It can be in head or in tail of the file list.

HFS+ file system has strong alphabetic order.

thank you.

Just make such a theme then I embed it into Clover.

I think blackosx will not protest against.

EDITED.

It must be very-very little, simple, without beauty images.

Time ago I have "extract" some image from embedded in the code...

hex_png.zip

most of them are 64x64... what you mean with reduce? the pixel ex:32x32 or 16x16

or you mean a different/better compression ?
