How To Install OS X Yosemite Using Clover

That looks ok to me. Use Clover configurator when done to uncheck "Inject Intel" as it doesn't look like you need integrated graphics according to your system profile. Let us know how it goes.

EDIT:

Attaching my config.plist from my r2795 Clover USB. Note though that I use an AMD graphics card so you'll need to make these changes if you want to do it manually instead of using Clover Configurator:

Change:

<key>ATI</key>
<true/>
<key>Intel</key>
<false/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<false/>

To:

<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<false/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<true/>

I tried these two but still spining cursor! I really don't get it why did happening..

<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<false/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<false/>
</dict>
——————————————————————————
<dict>
<key>ATI</key>
<false/>
<key>Intel</key>
<false/>
<key>NVidia</key>
<true/>
</dict>
 
does ati 7670m work with clover ?

Spinning cursor? You mean the beachball or this error?

Hello all,

i was having yosemite installed with unibeast+multibeast, i decided to convert to clover, followed this guide and installed over existing yosemite drive, everything works 100% (imessage,sound,HDMI,wifi,etc,..).

i would like to thank tony and all dev team for your hard work.

Regards,
 
I'm following this guide on Z87MX-D3H. Initial install went fine and I'm up to post-installation steps. I used the HD4600 config file listed in the original post. Once Yosemite booted up it appears as if there's no hardware acceleration. Graphics are very jerky, mouse movement is sluggish. Is that expected because I haven't installed Clover on HDD yet, or is something afoot?
 
Hi,

Several things:

So I managed to install Yosemite using the stock config.plist (not the one provided in this guide) and noticed that after first booting with integrated HD 4000 graphics I was able to boot with my AMD HD 7870 (Intel and ATI were both set to true, Nvidia false). However it wasn't accepting custom kexts for ethernet so after installing Clover to the boot drive I replaced the config.plist with the ATI one provided in this guide. Like the first one I used Intel and ATI were set to true however I would get stuck on a black screen after it boots (takes 1 minute longer to boot too). By removing the 7870 I'm able to access the desktop. Any suggestions on fixing the config.plist file?

Also how do I get things like Realtek audio and 3rd party USB 3.0/SATA controllers working (Asmedia in my case)?

EDIT: I'm using UEFI only settings with an ASRock Z77 Extreme3 with a patched BIOS ver. 2.90
 
Anyone who is on Legacy BIOS and is having trouble installing with Clover, I managed to get this running by installing Yosemite on a MBR partition type. I think there is an issue with Clover not being able to boot using GPT partition on Legacy BIOS.

I have the exact same problem! Installation works just fine but after the reboot clover doesn't see my yosemity partition.

I tried installing yosemity on an mbr partition but the installer quits. It says osx can only be installed on guid partitions. Any tips?
 
See my post here:

Use my config.plist file on it and use Clover r2795 to create your USB instead of r2953. Hope it helps as we're closely matched spec-wise.

Hey! That worked like a charm...booted to the desktop and then...computer just restarted out of the blue (within 1 minute of getting to the desktop) and now it won't boot at all. Sits at PCI configuration and goes no further. Grr. Getting close.

Glad I have a spare SSD I'm testing all of this on :)

I had to replace OSInstall.mpkg and a OSInstall Framework file that was patched to allow install on MBR partition. These files would have to be replaced on your USB installer.
