Cyberdevs Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 "new clover boot loaders it's better to use the OSXAptiofixDrv.efi". This is also valid for my config: with aptiofix2, I can boot with -x I use the OSXAptiofixDrv on my IvyBridge for some time (couple of months). I didn't test the -x boot flag though because I never needed it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinarek Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Does anyone even have same problem? Hot-pluggging HDD work like a charm under Sierra. Yes, on my Medion laptop, the eSata connection works fine with Sierra... also plug it in while operating a Sata SSD. Hot plug does not work with High Sierra.

ndx2014 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 When updating to Beta 8 i get "package damaged or missing"-error. Already deleted all EMUVariableEfis etc. (cant find any NVRAM.plists) but the error still appears. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Ok. Boot-args -x issue is for OSXAptiofix2. I use it since El Capitan. By the way for the sake of the argument I just tested the -x flag just to make sure that it works and it does. You can switch to OSXAptiofixDrv and you will be able to use the -x whenever you need it When updating to Beta 8 i get "package damaged or missing"-error. Already deleted all EMUVariableEfis etc. (cant find any NVRAM.plists) but the error still appears. :/ Make sure that you are using the latest version of clover r4189 (Thanks to @fusion71au for that). nvram.plist is in the root of the EFI partition you might need to mount the EFI partition to find it. Make sure that you have the latest SMBIOS data in the config.plist you can use clover configurator 4.50.00 to update the SMBIOS. And unplug windows hdd/ssd if you have any (Thanks to @chris1111 for finding that as another cause for OSInstall.mpkg error) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1111 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I guess those icns file you are using are actually the png files with the .icns extensions that might be the cause for it not working. Try one of the icon files inside the following file: If you can change the icon of a hard drive using one of those icons then my assumption would be correct. /System/Library/CoreServices/ Exactly I am used a .png 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberdevs Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Exactly I am used a .png Did it worked? because it doesn't work on my end when I use a png with the changed extension to .icns file. it only shows the png icon in the get info page. But with a .icns from a legitimate source it works without any problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use an icns, you need to convert it to png before making the change, it also works with .tiff Open with preview File / export to png 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might need to rebuild my icon cache to see if that fixes it. The same thing happens on Sierra and macOS High Sierra. Notice the small icon on the top of the page.

I know a .icns does not have a small icon up Thats why I am export to png and png has this small icon up Anyway I think HS is little bugy about image EDIT** it is better to export the image in Sierra and then make the change in HS The image will be intact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I removed my other 2 backup drives so system ssd was the only drive and updated clover to 4189 + my smbios to imac. Didnt found any nvram.plists but im using UEFI, maybe thats why. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymack Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I have noticed that Hardware Monitor is no longer detecting my CPU GPU or fans. Just the drives it seems. I have tried removing it completely and the reinstalling but so far it is not working as it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now all is well. I had mislaid my working patched version, and patched a vanilla kext, to replace it, and that did not work correctly. Now I have tracked down the working version and installed it. So no need for the Other folder if you have a 10.13 folder with the kexts installed there. And only one Bootloader Clover ESP is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use this FakeSMC.kext it has all the sensors inside. and I suggest you do a nvram and kext cache clean up to get all those sensors to work. That's how I did it.

It is very good that you have resolved it For Clover and kexts Folder I was talking to myself, that's how I use it. on tree SSDs and four different OSs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have High Sierra, another installation of it that I experiment with, and Also Sierra whatever the current version is. I do not know a whole lot, but it has been fun to do going all the way back to OS X 10.50. At my age it is getting somewhat difficult to learn new stuff, and also to retain it. The same machine has versions of Windows on it too. I do not believe in trying to run different operating systems on partitions of the same drive. I appreciate your patience ,and that unlike some others your are not pedantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
