Ok, I'll give it a go.

Installed with Kext Wizard, repairing permissions and rebuilding caches now. Let ya know what happens.

This just seems weird because the FakeSMC that I have in the 10.10 folder in Clover seems to load and boot my system fine from the USB...?

Still stuck at PCI Configuration Begin but now FakeSMC throws a kernel panic first...?

There's something wrong with the way it's seeing my partitions I'm sure. It's like it wants to boot but it can't find the root. Where in Clover can u specify boot partition?

@ADHDMedia,

 

If you run the Clover installer on your drive again & click the custom button, it will "remember" what you did and you will see the same options you used on the drive before. 

 

To start with a clean slate on your hard drive's EFI partition, you might consider formatting it first before re-installing Clover:

sudo newfs_msdos -v EFI -F 32 /dev/rdisk0s1

Basically, you want to apply the same options used to install Clover on your working USB drive to your hard drive and then copy the entire EFI folder from your USB into the EFI partition of your hard drive.

If that doesn't work, try using the Clover install options in post#781 (I use Clover in legacy mode for my old BIOS based machine).  I would also leave "use alternative booting PBR" unticked.

 

Re FakeSMC - the one on your USB works so use that on your hard drive also (check version by right clicking on the file and then "Get Info").  There could be conflict if you inject FakeSMC from /EFI/Clover/Kexts/10.10 while also loading a different version from /S/L/E in Yosemite.

Hey guys. Couple or strange issues with Yosemite, wanna know if it's just me or what. First, I can't drop my Yosemite HDD into the Finder sidebar. When I do, it just disappears. Weird. Second, I can't turn auto-login on for my main user, only for a guest account. Any ideas?

 

Hey ADHDMedia, both things work here on Yosemite (when it boots and display works ok ofc :D )

 

My latest tests with Clover didn't give any results, added same SMBIOS Mavericks uses and forced kext injection, first time display worked fine, the next two it didn't. I'll definitely try booting with the USB into Yosemite to see if it solves the problem, seen that it works somehow differently if Clover is installed in EFI partition.

Is it me or the nvram.plist saver script not working in yosemite? The nvram.plist file is not being created.

 

So I thought I try to make my own solution.

I made a small script that creates the file in the root of the drive:

nvram -x -p > "/nvram.plist"

And saved it as "/etc/rc.shutdown.local"

 

And now here's the catch:

- If I run this rc.shutdown.local file manually in terminal, then the nvram.plist getting created in the root of the drive. Also it's content getting loaded by clover at boot.

- If I reboot the system to let it run the rc.shutdown.local file, then the nvram.plist is NOT getting created.

 

Why? The rc.shutdown.local file not getting executed automatically in yosemite? Any idea how to fix this?

I have the first problem as you've described. I have not tried with the second one so I can not really tell.

But then you restart and the yosemite partition hidden again.

 

***


I managed to fix nvram saving by this:

 

1. in Terminal: sudo nano /etc/save.nvram

Create an empty save.nvram file in the /etc folder.

 

2. in Nano editor I filled the save.nvram file with these commands:

#!/bin/bash

nvram -x -p > "/nvram.plist"

if [[ -f "/nvram.plist" ]]; then
   chflags hidden "/nvram.plist"
fi

This is the save.nvram file content. It's just make an nvram.plist file in the root of the OS partition and makes the file hidden.

 

3. save it.

Press Ctrl + X to save, then press Enter/Return to confirm the file name.

 

4. in Terminal: sudo chmod +x /etc/save.nvram

This makes the file executable.

 

5. in Terminal: sudo defaults write com.apple.loginwindow LogoutHook /etc/save.nvram

This writes the newly created command file into loginwindow's LogoutHook. This means our script will run on each logout. So the nvram getting saved on each logout,restart,and shutdown.

 

6. Done.

Clover will load this nvram.plist file on startup and will use the saved nvram values.

Going to try this out!  Thanks!  I noticed it wasn't saving before, but had no idea how to fix it...

Does this nvram stuff has anything to do with FaceTime and I messages not working?

Can anyone post the ShareKit.Framework for Yosemite as I messed the permissions on mine and it doesn't load at all now. I've been trying to fix the share in safari or even the notification Centre. I just couldn't use it by clicking on it nothing would happen. Now the framework doesn't even load so I have none of the sharing features

 

Thanks
