I got my Catalina installed and running smoothly on intel graphics with the Geforce GTX 980 disabled. There a couple quirks, but I'm chalking that up to the Intel graphics and I do plan to get a Radeon VII soon. I've had 2 monitors so long that going back to only one monitor is getting on my nerves.
However... I am unable to add Clover boot entries to my UEFI bios!
I have the drive formatted APFS (Samsung SSD)
if I try to install Clover from within Catalina it tells me its not valid for this system, and then the installation fails
I copied the EFI file from the USB to the EFI partition
I booted on the USB to add the clover boot entries.
it still won't add them
would I be better off just reinstalling and setting this to HFS rather than APFS? Is that the cause of my issues?
***NOTE***
I didn't use any of Tony's tools this time around; I wanted to see if I could do it all on my own. For the most part, I have succeeded.
