arsradu Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) @fusion71au Many thanks for the detailed post above. Problem is...nothing worked so far. :)) Probably in part due to the fact that I have almost 0 experience with booting Legacy (I didn't really need it), but also in part due to the fact that I'm probably doing something wrong (probably not related to the actual ISO, but we can't know for sure until I'm able to boot in Legacy mode). I created an iso with everything ok in terms of config (thanks for the script), themes, all of that. Aaand...even with the embedded theme set up and the same config as the one I use for booting on a daily basis, I still get exactly the same result. Which makes me think maybe the problem is somewhere else. Now, in terms of trying to load those drivers manually from EFI Shell...that didn't go too well either. First of all, the DVD ROM is USB based (external). Not sure if this is relevant in any way. But I'm just mentioning it in case it is. Second of all, it shows in Shell as blkC, with Alias (null). So, while I can do blkC:, it doesn't seem to have anything inside (I tried a simple ls and I got some error, I don't remember which one exactly off the top of my head). I can't see the contents of the CD. And none of the other "fs" entries is linking to this CD-ROM. All of them are my hard disks/SSD. So not what I needed. However, if I'm not mistaken, I've got the exact same issue when booting off of an USB drive, with Clover in Legacy mode. Booting in Legacy mode doesn't seem to work for me, for some reason. Never bothered to find out why, since my motherboard has an UEFI firmware. So I never needed to boot Legacy. But I was thinking, maybe I should focus on booting in Legacy mode first, then trying to understand (and debug) why booting off of the DVD doesn't work. Cause the reason might be the same. And it would take a lot less time to edit the files on a USB drive, than erasing and rewriting a CD every time I want to test a new scenario. Also, I couldn't find an option in the UEFI menu to boot CDs in UEFI mode or something like that... So I don't think my motherboard has this feature. I'll try to play with the Legacy mode a bit more, on a USB drive. See if I can get it to boot. We'll see what the results tell us after that. Since nobody else complained about booting in Legacy mode, I'm guessing it's probably something specific to my system.

vector sigma Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 @Sherlocks and all, r4994 should install in 10.15 by automatically change the root fs as rw (of course this is only done in 10.15+). There's a dialog anyone can translate in any language. Clover_v2.4k_r4994.zip @Slice take a look at localizable.strings and tell me if is now ok. To All, at the beginning of the localizable.strings now there are two new localization to be translated, as just said for the dialogs the package now show you in Catalina. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arsradu Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hi @fusion71au ! So, after a long day of testing, I managed to find the cause for the red text screen with x64 Exception Type 06. And it seems to have something to do with Clover itself. Older versions like 3911 work fine. But only if I select BiosBlockIO. With SATA, I get the exact same behavior (blinking cursor for a while, then "not found" then red screen). With BiosBlockIO it goes straight into Clover GUI (with a few icon issues for the embedded theme)...but it gets there. Also, 3911 had its own issues (mouse and keyboard not working in Clover GUI). Fixed it by removing AppleKeyAggregator. Newer versions don't seem to have it, so I guess that's ok. Another problem with 3911 is, of course, the fact that it can't boot Mojave (and not because of APFS, since I've got ApfsDriverLoader already in place, it's most likely the kext injection). :)) So...while I did get to the Clover GUI and I did manage to get my keyboard working so I can select the boot drive, I got stuck on my way to Desktop. So, to sum up: 1. newer versions of Clover (such as 4993) don't have BiosBlockIO anymore, so I will get that red screen if I select the SATA option and try to boot in Legacy mode (and yes, it looks like I remembered correctly, I DO get the exact same issue booting off of the USB as I did booting from the DVD, and now we know why). 2. older versions (such as 3911) can boot ok in Legacy mode, but only if BiosBlockIO is selected. Same issue if SATA is selected. Problem here is that those versions can't boot newer MacOS versions, such as Mojave. So...yeah, not sure why BiosBlockIO was removed for Legacy booting...but I can't seem to be able to boot otherwise. So, in a nutshell, older Clover can boot to Clover GUI, but can't get any further, due to OS issues, newer Clover can't boot even into the GUI, due to SATA issues (red screen with "x64 Exception Type 06" error) but, in theory, it should be able to boot Mojave. Maybe there's something in BIOS that should be checked in order for this to work with SATA, as well...? No idea. But so far, these are the results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But so far, these are the results. @arsradu, I noticed the makeiso script formats the iso with -eltorito-boot, to allow for legacy BIOS booting, and it also uses boot6 instead of boot7 (BiosBlockIO) which works on your system. I'm guessing the presence of the legacy BIOS code is what makes the CD-DVD-ROM "invisible" to your firmware when it is set to boot to "UEFI only". Try the following modified makeiso files (place in ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage) to generate the Clover ISO instead of the default one... makeiso_boot7.zip ---> uses boot 7 instead of boot 6 for legacy boot makeiso_uefi_only.zip ---> removed -eltorito-boot formatting so only UEFI booting possible PS BiosBlockIO is still available in the latest Clover Pkg installer r4995. If the boot7/BosBlockIO installed by r4995 doesn't work, then simply replace it with the boot7 "boot" file from Clover r3911 (keep the rest of the files from Clover r4995, including CLOVERX64.efi, BOOTX64.efi and the new drivers folder file structure)...

Good Luck! Clover_v2.4k_r4995.pkg.zip Hi there! So, let's see. 1. I'm guessing you're building Clover with a custom script or something, cause I couldn't get mine to add BiosBlockIO. Also, I see yours also has a few third party drivers and other wonders. This is what I get with regular compiling. However, even with your 4995 pkg, I still can't boot. But the behaviour is a little different than before. I get the cursor on the top-left corner, the "not found" thing, but no red screen anymore. It's just stuck at "not found". Replacing boot from 3911 into the 4995 USB also doesn't do anything. Same exact behaviour as above (stuck at "not found"). 2. makeiso_boot7 - same as above. Stuck at "not found". I've got the exact same behavior when nothing was written on the CD and trying to boot from it (stupid mistake on my side, I erased the disk, but forgot to put something back on it). Still, it was interesting to me that I got the exact same behaviour. So, no difference with or without content, that's what I'm trying to say. 3. makeiso_UEFI_only - still not visible in boot menu. Also, not sure that's intended (but I've got the same issue with the regular makeiso), but I've got no themes (at all) in the /themes folder on the iso...although the themes are present in CloverV2/themespkg. But they don't seem to make their way into the actual iso file. I don't think my inability to boot has anything to do with the themes, since I have the same issue with your 4995 pkg, and I do have themes on the USB drive, so it can't be that. But I'm just mentioning it in case they should be there (which I'm guessing they should). Edited July 13, 2019 by arsradu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same exact behaviour as above (stuck at "not found"). There might be a bit of confusion here. Legacy boot should work now that you proved it does with r3911 . Install latest Clover r4996 with pkg installer in legacy mode targeting your USB drive (custom option: install in EFI etc) Make sure all your needed efi drivers are in EFI/CLOVER/drivers/BIOS, normal kexts, config.plist present in their respective folders etc Delete the file named "boot" at the root folder, / , of your USB drive's EFI partition (this is actually boot6=CloverEFI 64 bits SATA, renamed as "boot") Replace with boot7 = CloverEFI 64 bits BiosBlockIO (which I extracted from official Clover r3911 ISO on Sourceforge) on the root of the USB drive, renamed as "boot" Try legacy boot again to your USB... 46 minutes ago, arsradu said: Can't forget something I never knew I needed. :))) But yeah, that part was missing. Thank you! Make sure you put the working boot7 from Clover r3911 in ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage/CloverV2/Bootloaders/x64 before running makeiso_boot7 from your ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage folder. Otherwise it also won't be present in your Clover ISO . Also regarding the missing embedded theme in your ISO: Did you copy the embedded theme folder from ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage/CloverV2/EFI/CLOVER/themes to ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage/CloverV2/themespkg before running makeiso? 2 hours ago, XLNC said: is aptiomemfix removed from clover ? Yes, this is an acidanthera project now. If you build Clover with Build_Clover.command and specify XCODE5 toolchain, you will still find it compiled in the ~/src/edk2/Build/AptioFixPkg/RELEASE_XCODE5/X64 folder ---> manually copy it to your ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage/CloverV2/EFI/CLOVER/drivers/off/UEFI/MemoryFix folder. Then cd to ~/src/edk2/Clover/CloverPackage and run ./makepkg to create the Clover installer. Edited July 13, 2019 by fusion71au 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
