All Clover versions will not load kexts from 10.13 if the system reported 10.12.

// version in boot.efi appears as "Mac OS X 10.?"

I  have "getOS 10.12" when I boot from USB 10.13 with HDD 10.12 connected to my system. Why?

Hello guys, good morning.

 

It's still necessary use the "NTFS.efi" at drivers64UEFI folder in dual-boot UEFI systems? It's a mandatory, to be more specific?

 

Thanks  :)

Hi Allan, good morning :)

 

I have a rig with dual booting Windows 10 and macOS (El Cap, Sierra, High Sierra) and I don't use NTFS.efi, So I guess having it is not mandatory. I never used it.

If I choose kext injection control in Clover Gui, go to the folder "other", and do not change anything there, just exit this folder and injection control menu, then try to boot from selected disk, boot fails.

if I do all the same, then go into the shell, and exit from it, and only then try to boot, or try to boot from another disk, everything is fine (Clover v2.4k r4243).

Not alone. I wrote this issue above. But my english skill is not good. Thank you for report

 

Edit1.

I always used injectkext=detect

So, I reinstalled 10.13 (17A365) using APFS and then boot with r4243 (Legacy).

I (by default) got no 10.13 dir inside /kexts, so I mv Other > 10.13 then placed my 3rd party kexts there.

But, if using InjectKexts=Detect I was unable tp reach the desktop for unknown reason, all kexts appears on Kexts Inject Mgmt though.

Otherwise, it works well by using InjectKexts=Yes. Thanks.

(Compiled using GCC5.3 under Ubuntu 16.04, also same results from SF rev & buildclover xcode8.2)

 

#EDIT: My prev tests under 10.13.1 (17B25c) got no problem by using InjectKexts=Detect/Yes, but with HFS+, with same r4243.

I have checked my 10.13 installers boot.efi and they shown as 10.12 (created from 10.12 with createinstallmedia), which is bad.

Please try this patch (added dbg infos + comment out (Entry->LoaderType == OSTYPE_OSX_INSTALLER) here).

Temporarily install mandatory kexts in /L/E/ with CSR_ALLOW_UNTRUSTED_KEXTS so you are able to reach the desktop.

 

** In xnu-4570.1.46

#define CSR_ALLOW_UNAPPROVED_KEXTS  (1 << 9)

Sorry I do not know how to insert your patch  or replace the original information in main.c file?

Hello guys,

 

Is there any relations with OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi and CsrActiveConfig?

 

On my Asus P8H77-M LE rig I've been using OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi for a long time and I had no problem, until Today I decided to to change the CsrActiveConfig's value from 0x67 and set it to 0x3 and I constantly get the Error Loading Kernel.

 

If I use OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi it will load the OS, so I wonder what could be the cause?!

 

I'm using Clover r4243

Thanks. Great Job  :)  Prebootlog from USB Installer 10.13:  good 'GetOSversion'. USB Pendrive can boot with using kext management for 10.13 and Other older. 

 

Sorry for my english

 

cd ~/src/edk2/Clover/rEFIt_UEFI/refit
patch -i /path/to/4243.diff

@ricoc93

Thanks for your help  :)

Stop changing SIP. Jesus, you guys are so weird. "I don't understand when I enable restricted access to secure resources I can't access that resource anymore." So stop. Here's what's happening, AptioFix MOVES tables around in memory, AptioFix2 marks them as unmovable memory mapped IO space. Neither approach works 100% for every one, so you need to use the one that works, AptioFix2 should be used because it has a better approach but also it has a much higher rate of failure (and a bug relating to allocation that no one seems to be able to find). Now, if you use AptioFix, then you NEED to have SIP config set to at least 0x67, whatever for AptioFix2, it shouldn't be affected if its working. So in other words it's a matter of the mechanism that is being used to prevent the OS from doing crazy stuff to your tables. AptioFix needs to be able to move the tables (this also probably breaks NVRAM that is SMM locked), so you can't enable restrictions in SIP because they will prevent the moving from being useful...

With all due respect Sir, Being weird doesn't even being to describe us (Me) ;):D:hysterical:

 

We all like to look around and change things and install macOS on our PCs, we like to play with things that aren't supposed to played with (I'm talking about myself no offense to our fellow members). But sometimes lack of knowledge will complicate things and that's why we are here (I guess) to learn more and seek for help (I'm talking about myself again)

 

But none the less thanks a lot for you clear and complete answer as always. :)

 

Cheers

:)

I like to learn. I like to figure things out and I like to see the connections between a and b. For that, you'll need to play and experiment a little, since that's the way to knowledge.

... also sorry, @cyberdev.. we may better play "safe" on this, I've deleted my prev. post about SIP: Enabled and give a clear note that I'm using "Legacy". Thanks.

I'm sorry, my friend but I don't quite understand what you mean by "we may better play safe".

I totally agree, not knowing something created a need for asking questions and therefor science was born :) This is the whole point of experimenting with macOS and PCs.

 

If I wanted to play safe I would have bought an iMac or a MacPro. ;)

 

Let's not get carried away and stay on topic :)
