Clover General discussion

[kushwavez]

@mifjpn Yeah I know. I'm still using USBInjectAll since Sierra tho. Making my USB 3.0 ports working was a bit complicated for my Acer, and after a lot of thinkerings and modifications for the SSDT-UIAC I finally...thank god, managed to get it working... I never touched it again since then, it's okay on Big Sur too.  I hope it'll never gonna break again.

@Slice & @Jief_Machak and the other developers,

 

Just wanted to report that Big Sur 11.0.1 Beta (20B5022a) installed without error on the hardware in my Signature using the latest 2516 Commit.

 

Thank you very much for the continued hard work!

UPDATE: @Slice I see that the option DisableRtcChecksum does not appear in the Quirks UI of Clover screen, is this expected?

It is here

USBPorts is working for me or else sleep wouldn’t work and it does. I can now boot back into BigSur after removing all but Lilu Weg and VSMC from Other and removing those 3 from numbered folders but I still cannot update and booting is slow.

I have all my hard drives in devices and built in so they don’t appear as external. 

Still cannot update (smc is not supported on this platform) tried vsmcgen=1 with no luck. Boot is also stalling with BYS3. I’ll try rolling back to 5125 soon and see what happens.

@Slice @Jief_Machak verry proud and happy to announce that the Clover package is correct for macOS Big Sur 11 and works on all other macOS versions.
There are no more Clover files installed on the Root disk, everything done in / Private / tmp
No need for the java script package for the read / write disk anymore, I will remove it from the Distribution
UEFI and ESP Legacy mode is fully functional, Backup Clover is done on the desktop. I give you the files that I have to modify to be done.

Still no luck even with going back to 5125. Going to test RC installer. Previously with the BYS3 stall I could reset nvram and it would be ok but not now. Nothing in my config has changed. Don’t know where I’ve gone wrong. 
Ok I have figured out the BYS3 stall is to do with AirportBrcmFixup so I’ll have to do some more test.

Fresh-installed 11.0.1 on a new SSD with 5126. Reboots went smoothly.

Now time to fix the dumb 10.15.7.

 

 

(If this one messed up again I'd format and go back to Mojave... )

And one thing I want to ask. Can you make OpenRuntime.efi will be chosen by default?

[Matgen84]

Hi @Slice @chris1111

I build latest commit with new package folder: all works well on Mojave (I try on Big Sur later). One thing: the EFI-Backups folder is copied on the desktop instead of Volumes/Mojave HD/EFI-Backups. Maybe I mistaken somewhere.

Hi @mifjpn Me too when I delete /Volumes/Mojave HD/EFI_Backups/XX (XX I a name example). The user password is asked because it is a security for the system. I think.

[LockDown]

Because its in the root of the drive

Hello, naiclub.
I have something like this on my desktop.

Dear friend, let's help make an example, install it in bigsur. Thoroughly or not
Because the old one cannot install bigsur packet

[Slice]

Dear sirs,

I want to ask you to test this version moving to 5127.

Attention to boot stability on different hardware and on different OSes.

The changes are not committed yet so just take this file and replace in your EFI folder.

 

CLOVERX64.efi-test1.zip

The issue under attention is random panics.

[Jief_Machak]

@Slice : should we setup a spreadsheet, for these tests ?

Why not?

[Jief_Machak]

Will  CLOVERX64.efi-test1.zip be the 5127 release if test are sucessful ? Or just intermediary tests ?

[Slice]

Intermediate. There is a long way to go.

[D-an-W]

Do you want logs @Slice or just report if boots ok?

 

@Jief_Machak when installing Big Sur yesterday I came across this message from BootLoaderChooser (I think):

 

Is that an expected feature as it did seem to work ok?

Yes, when you quit Clover to come back to BootloaderChooser, you can't restart Clover without reboot. That's because Clover doesn't uninstall (yet) all the protocols installed when quitting.

Finally got it working after dozens of reboots. Always had a kernel panic after selecting catalina "halt CR2" with "no memory mapping for frame pointer", resolution was to set RebuildAppleMemoryMap to false and EnableWriteUnprotector to true.

No long time test so far...BUT:

Big thanks to Jief Machak & Slice and everybody who spent a lot of time and nerves on this!!!

Trying Clover 5126 release, Preboot BS works just fine. Boot BS doesn't, probably my mistake.

 

Thank you anyone involved in the project for your effort.
