[Guide] Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro El Capitan using Clover UEFI

[Descalzo]

Which wlan did you use? I haven't decided yet. I'm just working on getting the OS to boot right now.

 

[Descalzo]

How did you unlock the BIOS? did you get the guy at Bios mods to do it?
There were some DIY instructions but they were old and dead links made the directions unclear.

 

[Descalzo]

Well so far, thanks to your kexts and stuff, I have it booting, it sees the display as a Retina, and my ASUS USB N10 is getting me sweet, sweet Internet.

I need a nap.

I think I need to disable the touchscreen, if anyone has tips on that. The kids dropped it (I will blame them, at least) and it doesn't work properly anymore, phantom touches and all.

 

[Descalzo]

So I've made some good progress, got the DDST and SDST or whatever theyre called. They don't jivewith the original instructions. When Itook out the ones with x and without ssdt and dsdt or whatever I end up with:


DSDT.aml SSDT-2-CB-01.aml SSDT-5-CB-01.aml

SSDT-0-CB-01.aml SSDT-3-CB-01.aml

SSDT-1-CB-01.aml SSDT-4-CB-01.aml

So when I start applying patches to my SSDTs I will not be patching the right ones, because they do not match with the instructions.

ALSO
I ran through them and tried to compile them one by one.
My DSDT when I try to compile it it gives me
14398, 6157, [Unknown ASL Compiler exception ID] (MDBG [Method])

I went back and rebooted and redid iasl on it. Same thing.

my refs.txt is copied/pasted from Post Number One.

Thoughts?

Oh and SSDT-2-CB-01 is throwing me a whole pile of these:
247, 6126, syntax error, unexpected PARSEOP_PACKAGE
248, 6126, syntax error, unexpected '{'
which makes me think that has an easy fix but what the heck do I know?

 

[Descalzo]

So the SSDT-2 file fixed itself when I patched it. The DSDT file did not. I copied that DSDT file and the same version of iasl and the same version of MaciASL to my real Mac and it worked. Same file, different computer, one worked one didn't.

I like it.

As we've got the same CPU there is a high probability my patched files will work for you also.
Therefor I've attached my patched-Folder as Zip. If our Firmware-version differs, it though my not work.

Thanks. I THINK I have patched them correctly, because when I boot there's no kernel panics or anything. In fact, I don't notice much of anything, so maybe I didn't do it correctly. I'll see what I can tell.

BTW, how did you get your bios de-whitelisted? I know there is a DIY method somewhere but it's old and it makes me nervous.

I really don't remember anymore - probably I just followed this guide and the one linked on page one.
Pretty sure I googled a lot and was very nervous, too.

But I remember: I was on the most recent stable official Firmware-release when applying the changes (most recent is still August 2015).
