I have a Mojave SSD, it is my main bootup disk (with EFI bootloader) - and it is one of two boot options defined in BIOS. The second BIOS boot option is my Mojave Backup SSD that gets erased and re-cloned by SuperDuper! weekly with the content of Mojave SSD, to make a backup clone in case the...

EFI attached thanks

ok just to get this straight in my head: The Monterey USB's OpenCore config.plist injected the "-v" boot arg (and all other there definded boot args) into my Mojave Clover drive’s EFI even though the Mojave Clover drive was detached...? How? Or is the boot arg injected into the BIOS? I would so...

I am now using a USB SanDisk 3.2Gen1 Media with 32GB. I made the bootable Monterey USB using the local guide once more. But I am working on Mojave so the app Disc Utility does not give me the option to "Click Current and choose 1 Partition" instead there is already 1 partition when I format the...

In full awareness of how important patience is here, please allow me to humbly ask if I can still count on your support, or is my case to be considered lost? Much obliged!

I disabled "full screen logo" in BIOS now the "stop2.png" is even pointlesser. Going into boot options with F12 ("bootop.jpg") and choosing the USB ends me up on a black screen. I use my signature build since 2011 and am quite familiar with its behavior. It seems to me that the motherboard and...

My third serious attempt today to update my signature build to Monterey. I made a brand new Monterey Install USB, compiled a brand new EFI OC, made a brand new handmade config.plist and ended up with a complete failure. I am still using the SSDTs downloaded from the forums here. The pic you...

The properties referred to by you as incorrect are for iGPU, which I will never use to drive a display. In this case, do I have to set the properties to only use the iGPU for computing tasks, like described at...

I kept as closely as possible to the guide, went through the config.plist editing process twice to make sure all is set right. But I did not get past the Gigabyte welcome screen. No boot options came up. Had the Monterey USB and an empty 256GB APFS GUID SSD and minimal setup (one display, 1...

Thank you for pointing me to this guide, I put some of my aging grey matter into following it and now I realised that I do not have a Haswell or Broadwell processor but a Sandy Bridge one. So after setting up my EFI base set and starting to configure my config.plist, am I still good wenn I...

Thanks again ok I am starting to see a dim light... am I well advised in taking the path lined out at https://github.com/errorexists/Getting-Started-With-OpenCore ?

Thanks, I would have loved to migrate to OpenCore form the start, but in the guide (for 14.0 installation /Sonoma and also for 12.0 installation /Monterey) when I click on the "Download OpenCore Bootloader 0.9.2" link I am taken to a page that offers me an OpenCore-0.9.8-RELEASE.zip download...

I am trying to get from charming Mojave to either Sonoma or Monterey. Both USB boot drives are basically working but on both I get stuck on the Clover 5157 intro screen (see attached screenshot) and can not get anywhere from here. No install option whatsoever. Of course it is something in my...

A few days ago, I updated my 2016 Dell Inspirion 15 7537 El Capitan Clover UEFI build to Mojave. Flipped in a virgin 2TB Samsung SSD. Did a clean install of Mojave first. Then hooked up my old ElCap boot drive via USB, and when finishing the installation, I had the installer transfer all my data...

Yo this "roungh" guide rocks. I could not find the Board ID at first, too, but then found the explanation (the two tiny little arrows up and down) and BANG there came the JPG preview. Thanks a lot!
