I want to update a running Catalina installation on a Designare Z390 to Monterey. Because I have a tripe boot system running, I prefer to keep my existing Clover installation yet instead of migrating to Open Core. In an instruction, I read about the quirks which are required in the clover...

Yes, I have and the Ubuntu installation is found well. Meanwhile, I created a static Entry for FreeBSD pointing to \EFI\Boot\BOOTX64.efi to chainload the FreeBSD bootloader.

As long as there is any other harddisk in your computer containing an EFI partition, it is possible to boot from the M.2 disk even if the BIOS does not support it. Then... just install CLOVER into the EFI partition of your other (supported) harddisk and place NvmExpressDxe-64.efi into the...

Hello, when the clover scan procedure finds any bootable Linux Kernels, it generates dynamic boot entries where the arguments 'quiet splash' are added beside the information about root partition and initrd-file. I would prefer to start my linux installation without a splash screen using...

Hello, I recently installed macOS on my new Z390 Designare MB using your guide. The installation almost works but there seems to be something wrong with Clover itself. 1.) The "Mac OS Recovery" icon is not shown at first attempt. It appears if I push the left and right keys a few times and...

Hello, I recently installed FreeBSD as a 4th OS on my PC on a ZFS partition with separate BSD boot partition. Im able to boot FreeBSD using the bootmenu of my motherboard (in other words, an usable EFI boot entry exists). But the Clover bootloader does not generate any icon for the FreeBSD...

There is a quite simple way to avoid this issue: Don't install the package 'grub-efi' on your linux and remove it, if it is actually installed. Instead, install the package 'grub-pc' (the legacy version) and de-select everything when you will be asked where to install the bootloader. This...

Depending on your motherboard, you can deactivate XHCI in your BIOS setup with the result that all your USB ports are EHCI.

Hello, I use an Asus P8Z68 deluxe motherboard with an Intel Core i7-2660K CPU and an Intel 6 Series SATA controller. My harddrive speed itself is quite normal if you believe the results of any benchmark program like NovaBench but for any reason, the CPU speed slows down if anything is...

Same with GT-430. For me, I get this video signal loss if npci=0x2000 is set. npci=0x3000 results in a kernel panic.

Hello, I recently installed Mac OS 10.9 on a system with an ASUS H87M-Pro Motherboard with an Haswell-based Core i7. While the installation of Mac OS 10.9 using a created installer stick was no problem and the system can still be booted using the bootloader on the stick, I haven't found a...

Hello, Beside OSX, I have installed some Linux systems which I want to boot in EFI-mode. I want to use the EFI version of grub2 and I am looking for a solution to chainload the Chimera bootloader from grub. All the instructions describing how to handle that if using the legacy version...

If the problem cannot be solved otherwise, as ultima ratio this workaround is possible: 1.) More the KEXT of the audio device from /S/L/E to your home folder 2.) Boot the system without the driver 3.) Run a terminal, gain root access 4.) Type 'kextload ./name-of-the-audio-driver.kext' If...

IT is universal incl. X64, i386 ans PPC

Hello, I am using an ASUS P8Z68 motherboard and an Alesis IO26 soundcard coming with a custom audio driver. I set up my system using the instructions for my motherboard with a custom DSDT, the speedstepper patch and a patched iMac12_2.plist, actually Mac OS 10.7.3. If the audio driver...

Same problem with the ALESIS firewire card here. Nevertheless, I found out that the KEXT for the device loads well if I load it manually on the booted system using the kextload command. My temporary solution is to put the KEXT to a different place than to /S/L/E and to call 'kextload...

Hello guys, I have an external firewire sound card that comes with a custom kext attached to my P8Z68 deluxe. I installed my system following this guide. If the driver is installed in /S/L/E, the system crashes at startup (when loading the dependency IOAudioFamily.kext it forces a kernel...

Hello, I want to upgrade Snow Leopard to Lion (10.7.3 from App Store) but on my computer, there is something wrong with XMove. In the instructions, you shall create an Installer partition and choose it as destination volume when running xMove. There is also an advice that the system partition...

I want to use /dev/disk0s13 for the Mac OS X installation. This partition is not accessible in hybrid MBR mode. Furthermore, the MBR entries must not exist to let Windows boot up in GUID mode. Otherwise starting Windows fails. My goal is to avoid BIOS booting on my system completely. Is there...

Hello, I have an hard disk with five already installed operating systems (Windows 7, Snow Leopard, three Linux distributions) and plan to install another Mac OS X system on the 13th GUID partition of my disk. Actually, Mac OS X is on my second partiton where the Chimera bootloader boots using...
