Clover General discussion

[LockDown]

A backup is where it is safe but accessible to "end user"

I take myself out, for me the backup of the EFI put it where it makes the most people happy and end discussions ... i'm fine even if put in the trash can 

So I would like to close this section of discussion, not to mention it. Thank you.

[chris1111]

HOME is OK for me, Desktop was also OK for me, the most important thing was that the Backup is done and that the Package works in macOS Big Sur 11

If the Backup would have been on the moon it would have been also OK  End of story

To finish the discussion I want to ask if the user's home folder will suit for you and other people you mentioned?

If yes then we can change the package. @chris1111 may do this.

 

It's suitable for me. Use the user's home folder instead of Desktop, for backup in presintall:  I second the motion @Slice Since two days, I customize this file in my local repo to backup to $HOME.

Thanks to @chris1111 for his patience

Would you also consider since it already exists "src" folder as possible dir?

would just avoid making another directory in Home..

 

PS

Stupid question to all others...

Would you pls tell me why you are so eager to have yet Another another folder into Home. since clover already uses "SRC" ?

are you maso?

 Do you really think that all those who use the Package Clover are people who create the full Build? I hope not because most of the people I know use Package Release and don't waste time building Clover

So src is not a good option for me

@chris1111You have a point there... that's what i get for taking it for granted...

I withdraw this promoter

 

- I agree with you iCanaro, I have NEVER used a Backup folder made by the Clover installer!

 

- I leave free will to place wherever I want

 

- I always keep in mind that at least Chris made the installer in Big Sur work, which was the most important thing (I know that others could do it too) but that was not the case so he leaves it on the desktop and I leave my thanks to him for having done it because I would not do it for lack of knowledge and also Thanks to all the team that has been working hard for this to continue possible

 

- for the moment it works I will never complain about a promoter with little importance

[matxpa]

@SliceHi Slice.

 

About Clover and BackUpRootDir : wouldn't NVRAM, NVRAM.plist and Clover.prefPane an other way ?

 

 

[Slice]

Clover.prefPane is deprecated.

[iCanaro]

i see that they've been committed to new destination backup efi

https://github.com/CloverHackyColor/CloverBootloader/commit/914d505aa06318caf7bf21ea1cb87bee7ba93c46

i hope that the peace of the senses has come 

[Matgen84]

Hi @Jief_Machak @Slice Developer's Team,

Sorry if i seem for those remarks as i know you already put a lot of effort.

But Big Sur partition recovery is not detected, and since BS 11.1 Beta, Clover GUI does not recognize os_bigsur.icns on affected volumes. 
Hope you will have time to find a solution. Thank you in advance.

 

[Matgen84]

Hi @Jief_Machak @Slice Developer's team,

 

Sorry Again, if i seem for those remarks as i know you already put a lot of effort.

 

Clover r5126 latest commit - macOS Big Sur 11.1 Beta:
 

 

There is a problem of the order of the kexts in the Other folder: Lilu is not in first while it is the case in 11 folder. Maybe, it is the reason why there is a panic, "can't perform kext scan no kext summary" when kexts are duplicates.

Other folder

11 folder

[Jief_Machak]

The order in the menu doesn't reflect the link order. You'll see real order in debug.log.

Why the order in the menu doesn't reflect the real order. I don't understand.

 

In debug log, there is the same problem of order with Big Sur 11.1 Beta (Other folder vs 11 folder) as Clover menu

debug.log

Edited November 19, 2020 by Matgen84

[Jief_Machak]

I guess the order in the menu is the order the low level file system driver gives us. Which could depend on a lot of thing. The order they were copied, for example.

If you rename 11 to Other and Other to 11, menu order might be swapped.

Clover takes care of a proper injection order (currently hard coded) just before it delegate to OC.

Sorry because of my bad English, I don't understand well. I see that the proper injection of Clover is hard coded. 

If I only use Other folder to boot Big Sur 11.1: Lilu is not in first position. In Mojave with Clover 5126 same commit, Lilu is the first kext. Why?

Mojave:

That is still not the order of injection. Look at the bottom of the debug.log. In the log that comes from OC. You'll find some lines saying "prelinked success" or something like that.

Ok. Clover delegate the kext injection to OC, only for Big Sur. Right !

[Jief_Machak]

No. We delegate for all versions now.

These kind of lines will tell you the injection order

OC: Prelinked injection Kexts\Other/VirtualSMC.kext (SMC) - Success

 

[chris1111]

@Jief_Machak Interesting  bdmesg also gives the kexts patch info but differently if I understand

why i m booting successfully from preboot volume

but do not boot Big Sur volume

can't we boot actual volume of big sur?

i attached my EFI folder

EFI.zip

[Jief_Machak]

The preboot volume does something about root hash (don't know what that is)/ Booting from Preboot is the only way.

from ioreg with usb mapped with my ACPI, it is immediately apparent that USPorts.kext adversely affected the USB 3.1 asmedia PXSX

 

using USBPorts.kext

 

using my ACPI

@iCanaro, for Haswell the ACPI method you are using has to be done differently according to the guide you mentioned.

https://www.macos86.it/topic/597-guide-how-to-usb-port-mapping/

I’m not a developer, only an enthusiast that has built hackintoshes since 2012. If I share with you the OEM dsdt of my mobo, would you do this method for me? I really want to fix the USB 3.1 ASmedia PSXS that for some reason is not working natively and perhaps this USB mapping method could serve well. Maybe I’m wrong but I believe that the change made in Big Sur AppleUSBXHCIPCI plug-in broke the native support for my USB 3.1 PCIe card.
