FakeSMC failing to load?

 

 

 

The installer path to boot.efi on the "Boot OS X" partition for Fusion Drives changed from /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi (in El Capitan) to /com.apple.boot.R/boot.efi (in Sierra & High Sierra)...

 

El Capitan

vs Sierra & High Sierra

please test for fusion drive

Hi, maybe a noob questions :)

 

clover add some nvram keys which aren't present with other bootloaders

can you explain (briefly) about them?

 

security-mode=none

flagstate=0

efi-boot-device=UUID of macOS partition (is it because of LastBootedVolume?)

EFILoginHiDPI=0

efi-boot-device-data

specialbootdevice (same key as efi-boot-device-data)

Thanks.

Upload your preboot.log and did you see DSMOS arrived message above verbose log?

for now I could just confirm that your config.plist working just well with clover 4233...

These are all keys from different SMBIOS of different macs. Some don't have certain ones, but there's nothing wrong with setting them in that case. The efi-boot-device(-data) and specialbootdevice keys are set because that's the startup disk.

Thanks Sherlocks.

 

It now correctly detects /com.apple.boot.R/boot.efi from "Boot OS X" as macOS install  :).  

 

At the moment, it is not parsing /com.apple.boot.R/SystemVersion.plist so os ver is not set to 10.13.x ---> will need FakeSMC in /CLOVER/kexts/Other as /10.13 won't be used...

maybe this is last test. please test and report

 

also still if null, can't read other folder. this is strange.

you need to find solution yourself. your system has simliar fabiosun's system. maybe he can help you.

@Sherlocks,

 

test2.zip gets same result as original test.zip ---> os ver not set to 10.13.x.

 

It was a similar situation before with "/macOS Install Data/Locked Files/Boot Files/SystemVersion.plist" before @Slice fixed version detection from that folder in Clover r4293.

 

already. i did mistake build. here is file

can you upload systemversion.plist?

 

com.apple.boot.R/SystemVersion.plist

macOS Install Data/Locked Files/Boot Files/SystemVersion.plist

 

it will help cleanup code.

preboot from 4297

why add 0:138  0:000   - [04]: 10.13 Installer/Updater essential :: MatchOS: 10.13.x :: data len: 11?

already its same xcpm_pkg_scope_msrs © Pike R. Alpha. your preboot was cut. not full log. strange.

Installer/Updater essential - its disabled, also other patch have to edit to make cpu run properly. tomorrow will test another version clover) thanks

FakeSMC? When i question about the differences between 4233 and 4297 I think it's logic that I don't alter and change anything in EFI... Will test and report your idea about entries. Thanks

 

I think you might be misunderstanding me.  We need a full boot.log from Clover r4297 to diagnose the problem, which means you temporarily install essential kexts needed for booting into /S/L/E (like FakeSMC), so the boot can go to completion.

 

At the moment, your preboot.log from r4297 ends shortly after reaching the Clover GUI (because you are booting into Linux with r4297, instead of High Sierra??)...

2:534  0:058  GUI ready
7:271  4:736  BootVariable of the entry is empty
7:271  0:000  === [ StartLoader ] =======================================
7:271  0:000  Finally: ExternalClock=25MHz BusSpeed=100000kHz CPUFreq=3400MHz PIS: hw.busfrequency=100000000Hz
7:271  0:000  Loading grubx64.efi  status=Success

and is missing the crucial part we are interested in wrt kext injection eg

 

 

 

does GetOSversion detect 10.13.x correctly?

10:834  0:000  Loading boot.efi  status=Success
10:845  0:010  GetOSVersion: 10.13.1 (17B48)

and what happens with kext injection

We can extrapolate whether kext injection is working from /CLOVER/kexts/Other by seeing if the other, non essential kexts (besides FakeSMC, like your AppleALC.kext), are loaded after a successful boot into your system with Clover r4297 and FakeSMC in /S/L/E.

Today when I try to delete all the UEFI variables the shell show this.

 

Does this protected variables cause our laptop can’t use native nvram?

Maybe.. It was protected. I don't know exactly.

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?/topic/304530-Clover-Change-Explanations&do=findComment&comment=2533580

 

Follow terminal command and check nvram -p after reboot.

You have to use rc script if you want to use nvram feature on your system. save brightness value/etc

I just want to find some solutions to solve the native nvram support on our laptop.
