Clover post installation kexts

[bulibasha75]

Zyphrax I want to say thank you for posting the guide above. I will give it another try to CLOVER to see if I can make it work .

 

[Zyphrax]

I'm happy to help. I know how frustrating it can be to get everything to work.

 

[breiti3000]

To inject the KExts Clover has to load FSInject.efi and it will bypass the current kernel cache. That should be slower than putting them directly in /S/L/E. At least that's what I've read.

Actually the main reason for me to put them there is because AppleHDAIDT (audio dummy Kext) won't work unless it is stored into the /S/L/E folder. This is probably because of the symbolic link pointing to the binary in the AppleHDA Kext. To keep them all in one spot I've added the rest there too.

Thanks again,works like a charm!

Another thanks here!

I'd had a working Clover install on my Z77M-D3H, but there were one or two glitches and I still wasn't understanding (in broad terms) how Clover worked compared to the old Chameleon/Chimera method. I *think* I kinda get it now, but I reckon not having a DSDT file before wasn't helping.

I'm literally just finishing of as I type (migrating my old Time Machine stuff) but so far I have working Ethernet (I'm F13 BIOS, running the other Ethernet kext - AL1c) and the most important iMessage/iCloud.

The 2 main gripes I'm hoping your guide addresses are:

1) Sleep not working - which oddly worked at first on my 1st, largely "vanilla" clover install - then just stopped?....
2) Continuous requests from Little Snitch (firewall app) to allow programs to access internet - despite repeatedly allowing them permanently.

For 2, I wondered if it was an NVRAM setting or something that I was missing.

As a last (probably highly n00b) question - how can I get Clover to boot from the default disk after a short timeout of say 3 seconds? As it stands, I am prompted to choose a disk on every boot - I'd just like it to start from the one highlighted. I'm guessing I'm missing a very obvious option........

Thanks again for this guide and the files - probably the most straight forward and cleanest attempt at Clover I've had yet!!

Edit: Not so fast - I got the following error/KP after bringing across my old apps, etc. with time machine (which struck me as odd)

It looks like some legacy VoodooHDA reference is screwing things up. Would that be correct??

EDIT 2: Yep - was indeed the VoodooHDA.kext screwing things up!

 

[defbref]

As a last (probably highly n00b) question - how can I get Clover to boot from the default disk after a short timeout of say 3 seconds? As it stands, I am prompted to choose a disk on every boot - I'd just like it to start from the one highlighted. I'm guessing I'm missing a very obvious option........

Sorry can't help with your other problems but this will sort out your boot selection.

Set timeout to 0 in config.plist. explained in clover wiki http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Contents

Thanks for the pointer on clover - clearly a n00b error!! Despite editing the timeout, it still does not work - I must be either completely stupid, or I've missed something else.

For the main pain point, I had guessed correctly and it was indeed the VoodooHDA kext, so all working nicely. Sleep/wake works a treat with "darkwake=no" set using clover configurator. Little Snitch was reinstalled and (so far) it appears to be ok now.....

Zyphrax,

Thanks for putting this together.

I'm running the same motherboard and I've followed your instructions to a T (apart from loading your bios config file; I attempted and got a checksum error).

Each time I've tried to get into the installer, all I get is a grey screen with the twirling rainbow ball. I've let it run for some time and nothing changes. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

If you are facing any issues while installation or post installation then please open a new thread.

What you mean by BIOS config file??

How you created your bootable USB?? Unibeast or CLOVER??

 

[Zyphrax]

@mattglobal
Could you check the revision of your motherboard?
It should be printed on one of the corners of your motherboard (1.0, 1.1 or 1.2).

Did you create the installation media in exactly the same way?

You can also try booting your installation with the -v option, that might give a better idea of where your installation hangs.

Also try running the installation with only the relevant hardware (no external USB disks or other USB hardware). What kind of videocard do you have? You might want to try the built-in one for the installation if it is an Nvidia.

@Jithin
With BIOS config file he meant the file I provided. It is an export of my BIOS config settings. Unfortunately the Gigabyte BIOS is really picky in handling these files.
