AsusFreak Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I'm gonna have a look and give it some thought... Could be painfull, that early UEFI bios could really play hell with Clover. But hell, if you're bored... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiethemorris Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Well, It seems I've finally located my boot issue, it's the IOATAFamily.kext I use in Mavericks to be able to see my SATA drives, since I need SATA set as IDE and not AHCI in bios for Win 8.1 to work properly. First thing I did to check this was copying kexts from Yosemite HDD to Yosemite USB, which before had only FakeSMC and NullCPUPowerManagement.kext. I booted with the USB and surprise surprise, screen didn't work. Then I rebooted into Mavericks and removed the kexts, booted again and voilà, display worked right away. Finally, I booted into Yosemite HDD in single user mode and ran the usual kextcache command to rebuild the thing, which gave me the same Segmentation Fault 11 error I saw appearing two days ago, but I didn't pay attention to it. To make Yosemite discard the problematic kexts i ran kextcache --prelinked-kernel, which said, among the lines, "IOATAFamily has an invalid signature, omitting", meaning it was going to be excluded from the linking and cache. Gave exit command and Yosemite booted fine from the HDD. Now I need to find another working IOATAFamily.kext which works, or discover if Clover can show those SATA drives that now are disabled. Are you familiar with this method to allow windows to still boot when you switch from ide to ahci? http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/987378-how-to-switch-from-ide-to-ahci-without-repairingreinstalling-windows/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Lol no I'd rather not. But now... on to troubleshooting! I'm using GenericUSBXHCI.kext for USB 3.0. Works well with Mavs. Also works with Yosemite but it breaks when I wake up from sleep. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion71au Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 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. Works perfectly. Thanks very much . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHacker66 Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Hey everybody! I went one step further and decided to install Chameleon rev 2377 on Yosemite HDD, and well, it was a blast as expected. Faster boot, less pain with the config, like I thought. Only thing, I had to move my kexts directly into S/L/E for Kext Utility to pick them up and fix their permissions so they could load on boot. Only things left now are getting the latest AppleHDA by Toleda to work and another way to enable my SATA drives! Oh wait.. Are you familiar with this method to allow windows to still boot when you switch from ide to ahci? http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/987378-how-to-switch-from-ide-to-ahci-without-repairingreinstalling-windows/ I didn't know about this, if it works with Win 8.1 (the guide is 3 years old!) you'll be my new bff! (No, just kiddin') Will try this right away and report! Cheers everyone and enjoy Yosemite! I'll go on and continue testing iOS / OS X interaction with the new features announced at WWDC, I'll keep you posted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccsr Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 For me in safari, it works. Where do you trying it? Did you log in to iCloud? I have reinstalled 4 times now, one straight after another to find out when my today and all the widgets are gone from the Notification Centre. It's right after I sign in to iCloud. If I use it without iCloud, it then happens when I log in to FaceTime or iMessage. Is anybody else not having this issue? It just seems strange that I am the only one? Can anyone else check, preferably if you have logged in to any of apple's services. I can't be the only one this is happening to. I can't use the share menu in safari and all the widgets are gone from the today screen in the notification centre. Also the share icons are there but if i click on them nothing happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I'm logged into iCloud services all across the board, iMessage, FaceTime, contacts, mail, the whole shebang. No issues with NC or sharing.... Maybe it's your Apple ID? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 No I'm not registered this year. And I don't really know what could be wrong with it, just thought that could be a good suggestion?

Guest wader1111 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Haven't been keeping up with the whole thread so please excuse me if someone already suggested this ccsr. I was having that problem with iMessage/FaceTime too until ADHDMedia gave me a copy of his config.plist for Clover with a SMBios for Mac Pro 5,1 in it. My friend had the same issue on his Yosemite install, and replacing the old config file with ADHDMedia's solved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you sign in to iMessage, did you create a new smbios serial? Thanks for helping me out.

webcivilian Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 @ ADHDMedia - Did you get your FakeSMC.kext backtrace problem fixed? Do you have the kext in 10.10 folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 It wasn't a FakeSMC problem, I had Clover installed completely wrong. I got it sorted out this morning tho, thanks to some help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccsr Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Here ya go, give it a shot: https://db.tt/1RJQ0uMz Thanks buddy, did you have to remove any kext due to it being the mac pro smbios? I'm referring to the AppleTyMCEDriver.kext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I did. Should have mentioned that, sorry. Alternatively, you can take your config.plist and import it into Clover Configurator and add any SMBIOS you wanna use, that's how I added mine. I've always used MacPro5,1 so I just stuck with that.

Ok cool. I always use the imac 13,2 smbios. Even clover chose that for me and I have it on my Mavericks drive working fine. What I find odd is that no one has this issue with the imac smbios and there must be quite a few in this thread using it. I will add it in clover configurator as I have other edits and don't want to have to redo the config file all over again. Everything is fine for me if I don't log into iCloud at the setup screen. As soon as I connect to the net it seems things start going wrong. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slice Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 @ ADHDMedia - Did you get your FakeSMC.kext backtrace problem fixed? Do you have the kext in 10.10 folder? backtrace problem is related to FakeSMC 6.xxx kozlek's version. My FakeSMC_V3.3.1 never had such a problem. You can find it in my signature. Don't be confused by version enumeration. My branch changed second digit while Kozlek decided to change first digit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I still don't understand why this isn't a Clover issue though... When I boot with Chameleon, I don't have this problem. Only when booting with Clover. Question: how can I rebuild the Yosemite kernel cache from inside of Mavericks? Can it be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADHDMedia Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 EDIT: Aha! I got smart and remembered my Yosemite USB installer still had a kernelcache with all the same kexts in it from my SSD install! Replaced the kernelcache and now I can boot again Now back to figuring out this USB 3.0 issue...

Duran Keeley Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I'm guessing AirDrop and Continuity only work on AirPort Wifi and/or Bluetooth. Anyone tried?
