[Guide] HP ProBook/EliteBook/Zbook using Clover UEFI hotpatch (10.11)

Status
Not open for further replies.
- I want to avoid a fresh install for now...

Do a fresh install to second partition for comparison. Should only take 30 minutes or so...

- Is there a problem not customizing the SMBIOS with Clover Configurator? Do you recommend me to customize the SMBIOS?

As per guide, you must customize SMBIOS. You should expect weirdness with Apple services.

I see that my hackintosh does not have the same serial number I had before move to hotpatch setup and update to 10.11.5,

As recommended in post #1, you should use the SMBIOS data from your previous setup.

- My primary drive is a Kingston HyperX SSD, and never had problems (nor slow boot or constant fsck). TRIM is enabled as always.

My suggestion remains the same. You should try without. If you're not willing to try my ideas, don't ask for them.

- I've customized my SMBIOS now (followed instructions to do not modify the config.plist with Clover Configurator, just copied the contents of SMBIOS from a copy of the original file). I don't have the previous config.plist file as I overwrite the file (next time I'll be sure to make a copy), and seems to be that Time Machine doesn't backup the EFI partition.

- Forgot to tell you I was going to try that, sorry. Now I've checked TRIM in config.plist, it's disabled.
Code:
<dict>
                <key>Comment</key>
                <string>Enable TRIM for non-Apple SSDs</string>
                <key>Disabled</key>
                <false/>
                <key>Find</key>
                <data>
                AEFQUExFIFNTRAA=
                </data>
                <key>Name</key>
                <string>IOAHCIBlockStorage</string>
                <key>Replace</key>
                <data>
                AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=
                </data>
</dict>


Not sure what could cause crashes after coming back from sleep, so now I will put a new drive in to do a fresh install.
If you think I can check anything else, I will do everything you recommend me.

Thank you very much.

Of course not. On a real Mac, there is nothing on EFI that requires backing up.

The plist data you show there shows TRIM patch enabled.

You did not follow this guide. Read post #1 and follow the instructions.

You are right, it was enabled!! I did change <false/> to <true/>, rebooted, and confirmed disabled in System Information/SATA. But the problem is still on, each time my computer wakes up from sleep, it hungs.

You think creating a new SSDT.aml file following steps provided in "Power management" could solve the problem?

It is unlikely regenerating SSDT.aml from ssdtPRgen.sh will make any difference... no changes to that script for Sandy Bridge for a long time.

Do a fresh install.
