peterwholesale Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Hey guys, I have a DZ77SL-50K motherboard, and I am trying this from both clover and chameleon and both exhibit the same behavior: On boot up it will say "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key", however when I start the computer and press F10 for "Boot Menu" an I select my hard drive, it will boot into Clover/Chameleon, I was wondering if you guys have ever had this sort of behavior and what you did to fix it? I would greatly appreciate it.

Picasso Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 You have to install clover boot in the hard disk. When you stay at Clover menu, go to menu and put install Clover in the hard disk. Or do the install process again and remember do all the steps correctly.

peterwholesale Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 You have to install clover boot in the hard disk. When you stay at Clover menu, go to menu and put install Clover in the hard disk. Or do the install process again and remember do all the steps correctly. To install clover I actually use a real mac and i plug in the hard drive using a USB caddy and I open the clover PKG file to install clover to the disk. Weirdly enough if I put a clover USB disk in computer it will start off of it automatically. You said i have to install "clover boot" in the hard disk, what "Clover menu" are you talking about, the one that is in the PKG file or the one that I can boot off of, I don't see the option to install clover on the hard disk on the boot menu (this below is what I am talking about): Is there an option to install clover using this? Nonetheless, the clover boot loader is resident in the hard drive, it just doesn't automatically start up when turning the computer on (even though it is set in the boot order), however when I go and select the hard drive in the boot selection menu it will load up clover, letting me select windows/mac os x partitions to boot from.... What really gets me is having the USB drive plugged in (with clover installed) it does what it's supposed to and loads right into clover on start.

bronxteck Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 add the path to clover in your bios as a boot selection. also make sure your boot order priority follows what you want to boot first.

peterwholesale Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 add the path to clover in your bios as a boot selection. also make sure your boot order priority follows what you want to boot first. in my BIOS it shows the sata drive as being the first, (and only) boot drive Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/310542-clover-will-not-boot-unless-selected-from-bios-boot-selection-menu/#findComment-2209806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronxteck Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 do you have UEFI or CSM options in the bios? if so try enabling it. also what bios version are you on it seemed they corrected a few things pertaining to boot order and UEFi. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22789/BIOS-Update-SLZ7710H-86A-the release notes there gives a description of the changes they have made.
