Tell me if you have 0 in UEFI >> APFS >> MinDate and MinVersion.

apfs.png

 

Changed in OpenCore0.7.2

 

UEFI> APFS: Increased the MinDate and MinVersion defaults in the APFS driver to match Big Sur in search of greater security. These values constitute the minimum date and version of the APFS driver whose loading will be allowed at startup. Examples:

  • MinDate and MinVersion 0 is the default setting (currently Big Sur), leave this value if you use Big Sur or Monterey
  • MinDate = 20210508 and MinVersion = 1677120009000000 for Big Sur 11.4 (20F71)
  • MinDate = 20200306 and MinVersion = 1412101001000000 for Catalina 10.15.4 (19E287)
  • MinDate = 20190820 and MinVersion = 945275007000000 for Mojave 10.14.6 (18G103)
  • MinDate and MinVersion -1 disable this check (not recommended).

MinDate and MinVersion need to be tuned for macOS versions prior to Big Sur. You must type MinDate=20200306 and MinVersion=1412101001000000 for Catalina.

BUT current document guides isn't 😳, how can i config plist properly?

Either stay on 0.7.2—but this is then the wrong thread—or use Configuration.pdf to understand the new options.

But wait a while: The latest releases of Lilu and VirtualSMC are not out yet.

Why shouldn't it boot ? I boot Mrey, BS, Catalina, Windows and Linux without problems with settings MinDate ..... in APFS ( OC-0.7.4 )

Unfortunately, -1 is the only option if you are quadruple booting High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina & Big Sur on the same system.

Thank you. But why do you have Conflict of opinion? :(

COnfig plist guide now just at 0.7.2, so i think must start from it, than modify to 0.7.3, then 0.7.4 following changes in pdf file of they? Not jump from 0.6.9 to 0.7.4?

Why do you seek to disable SIP? Hackintosh will work with the SIP enabled, csr-active-config=0

You want unrestricted DTRACE? You want NVRAM overflow? You want write bytes outside disk partition?

I have a very specific reason and that is to continue to use TotalFinder which has to have SIP disabled in order to work. But I messaged developer and he gave me correct setting so I now have SIP enabled (mostly) with working TotalFinder. I couldn't  be happier.

Finally, what is your csr-active-config now?

Using BitmaskDecode it gave me a value of 0x6:

 

# CsrActiveConfig Values To Number #

[ ]  1. CSR_ALLOW_UNTRUSTED_KEXTS - 0x1 (1)
[#]  2. CSR_ALLOW_UNRESTRICTED_FS - 0x2 (2)
[#]  3. CSR_ALLOW_TASK_FOR_PID - 0x4 (4)
[ ]  4. CSR_ALLOW_KERNEL_DEBUGGER - 0x8 (8)
[ ]  5. CSR_ALLOW_APPLE_INTERNAL - 0x10 (16)
[ ]  6. CSR_ALLOW_UNRESTRICTED_DTRACE - 0x20 (32)
[ ]  7. CSR_ALLOW_UNRESTRICTED_NVRAM - 0x40 (64)
[ ]  8. CSR_ALLOW_DEVICE_CONFIGURATION - 0x80 (128)
[ ]  9. CSR_ALLOW_ANY_RECOVERY_OS - 0x100 (256)
[ ] 10. CSR_ALLOW_UNAPPROVED_KEXTS - 0x200 (512)
[ ] 11. CSR_ALLOW_EXECUTABLE_POLICY_OVERRIDE - 0x400 (1,024)
[ ] 12. CSR_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_ROOT - 0x800 (2,048)

Current:  0x6 (6)

 

This setting shows the following using csrutil status:

 

System Integrity Protection status: enabled (Custom Configuration).

Configuration:
    Apple Internal: disabled
    Kext Signing: enabled
    Filesystem Protections: disabled
    Debugging Restrictions: disabled
    DTrace Restrictions: enabled
    NVRAM Protections: enabled
    BaseSystem Verification: enabled

 

Of course ocvalidate doesn't like this setting but it works.

OC 74 doesnt booth catalina either and for sure windows 11 had to revert to OC 72

I'm triple booting macOS Catalina 10.15.7, Windows 10 and Ubuntu Studio 20.04.3 LTS with OC 0.7.5 (which is the latest commit of 0.7.4) without problems. but there is a catch. After reading about the changes in the latest official release, comment by @miliuco at the [HOW TO] OpenCore 0.7.3 > 0.7.4 differences post he made, I followed making the "necessary changes"  advised for this latest release. Specifically this is the part that made me fail in my initial attempt to boot with latest OC: "Misc >> Security >> changed Default SecureBootMode value to match SMBIOS model to fix Monterey updates. There is no need to change SecureBootModel value in the config, Default will work for everyone". I change my SecureBootModel from j185f to Default and couldn't boot. Then I switch back to j185f and then I was able to boot the latest OC. I think this Default setting only applies for Big Sur and Monterey. Also I think you should pay attention to the UEFI>>APFS section.

Setting SecureBootModel to j185f really boots Catalina but not windows 11pro  unlike with OC 0.72 with SecureBootMode set to default everything boot including windows

Not true. OC 0.7.4 can boot Catalina and Windows 11.

For Catalina, check @antuneddu's post, MinDate and MinVersion of UEFi >> APFS.

For Windows 11, I'm booting it the same way as in 0.7.3. What's the problem or error warning? Windows icon not displayed in the picker? Selecting Windows icon fails booting Windows 11? Try 2 keys in config.plist (also for @Tecnicaso Rico)

  • Kernel > Quirks > CustomSMBIOSGuid > True (default is False)
  • PlatformInfo > UpdateSMBIOSMode > Custom (default is Create).

Quoted text is said by OpenCore developers, setting Default as a valid value for any one since it picks for SecureBootModel the same Mac model as in current SMBIOS.

But our hacks are each one a world. If you are working fine with SBM=j185f then go ahead, it's completely valid also.

Do you have iMac20,2 as SMBIOS model?
