OK, just got the EFI folder contents PRIOR to doing the upgrade from a drive I moved into a Windows 10 machine... oh boy that was a process.
So now I at least have the original EFI contents. Seeing if I can now get that into the USB drive and maybe boot off this darn SSD to get back to working...
Not sure if I can install a completely new OS and clover just to get back in? Other drives are all APFS and I cannot access any of my data. Freaking me out
No (clearly). Haha. Sorry. Never goofed up an update like this before. Trying to strategize how to get back in.
can I spin up a new USB drive with clover to get access to my drives and replace the files? Was on clover 5118 on Catalina. Completely stuck at the moment. No direction to go. Help?
I dont know why... i thought it was required to update clover too. Boy was I wrong. Now I cannot boot to my SSD after updating Clover... and I cant boot to my backup OS drive either. Get the same message. Trying to figure out another way to fix this so I can boot to my backup drive... restore my...
So which kext are required to update? assuming standard ones, but thought I would ask since you already have this working. WhateverGreen, AppleALC and Lilu?
Updating Clover now. Thanks in advance!
Pretty simple as well. Updated Lilu, AppleALC and Whatevergreen. Downloaded update from App Store. 3rd reboot and back! No issues. Can't THANK YOU all enough for the continued support. Great stuff everyone!
Updated kext files, and USB patch in Clover (was on 10.14.6 Mojave). Downloaded from App Store. 3 restarts. Pretty easy. THANK YOU
USB, audio, video, everything seems great.
Different Issue.
I found the board ID just fine... but the entry I have in my config.plist doesn't look the same as the one you posted. This is the only entry with the matching board ID. Do I delete this entry?

HaHa! I made that realization last year... Switched over to a Radeon RX 580, and now everything is super smooth with upgrades etc. If you can swing it, switch. So much better as a Hacintosh. Now that I said that, Apple will switch again (Newman!!)

OK. Got it!
I was struggling with how to update Clover Boot loader... but once that was done, it's gone pretty smoothly.
1) Backed up current boot drive (to spare SSD)
2) Upgraded to newest Clover (r4674)
3) Updated Lilu.kext and AppleALC.kext to newest version (EFI\CLOVER\KEXTS\OTHER)
4)...
I keep reading "update clover" and I'm not 100% sure which steps to do to make that happen. I'm on Clover r4380 on a PERFECTLY working 10.13.6 High Sierra build (Z270X Ultra Gaming, Intel i5 7600k, Radeon RX580, and Samsung NVMe SSD).
How to I go about updating the clover on my boot drive...
Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for taking the time to post this and "give back". I created my Hacintosh successfully earlier in the year and could not have done it without great information like this post. I've been wondering how the new 6/12 core CPUs would work for Hacintosh's.... good to...
Worked perfectly on my Gigabyte Z270X Ultra Gaming system as well! I already had the USBInjectAll.kext file (from Dec 2017) but went ahead and downloaded the latest and added the patch... worked flawlessly.
Back to a perfectly working Hacintosh system! Much appreciated!
