There is a fan mod by Don Grappler, don_grappler or so that has measurements of the actual temps under load. IIRC he posted diagrams. It's the FAN-SMOOTH or FAN-GRAP (or so) fan mod. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/new-fan-control-dsdt-for-silent-fan-at-higher-temps.72043/post-635384

Does someone know the settings for the latest Clover (5100 as of writing) for a Probook 4x40s (i.e, 4740s, 4540s, or 4340s)?

Maybe there is still a Windows entry in config.plist > root > GUI > Custom > Entries. The original plist used to have one (due to their author having a Windows partition?).

Hello" My automatic boot in Clover does now boot automatically. The line "Automatic boot…" flickers repeatedly (not fully sure if it is every timeout/waiting time), but not boot progresses. Any ideas?

Magnetic and rotating disks. A traditional "hard disk".

That's right. The cloned external disk has its own EFI with all the necessary clover/Rehabman hotpatch stuff. in /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI: -rwxrwxrwx 1 Me staff 12128 10 Okt 21:27 ApfsDriverLoader-64.efi -rwxrwxrwx 1 Me staff 17280 10 Okt 21:27 AppleImageCodec-64.efi -rwxrwxrwx 1 Me...

That's correct. I tested it and it works fine. I have not yet FV'ed the internal drive because I'd be hard pressed to get at another mac if the machine breaks.

I have a clone of my setup on an external disk, with FV2 enabled. Works. As a safety measure, you might make sure you could access another macOS machine in case your machine breaks, to still have access to your data.

Thanks! And I thought I had searched everywhere... Probably should not have searched for "filevault 2"

Hello, Is it possible to use FileVault 2 if both a ps/2 and a USB keyboard are connected? What drivers/kexts are required? Thx for help!

What is the state of the art re FileVault 2 with the hotpatch install? Clover now includes drivers for UEFI-booting with FileVault 2, but none with a name indicating PS/2. If it is possible to use FV2 on a probook, what drivers are required for internal and external (USB) keyboard?

Will do. Thank you for your help! Greatly appreciated.

Hello, I wrestle with a strange problem, though I think :) I did everything right: On shutdown, the mac hangs displaying desktop background without icons, no menu bar. Dock is available, launching apps through Butler works. Shutdown from power button, or via "sudo shutdown -h now" works...

Thank you for the explanation! Re: Question: Sorry, I should have been more clear. No question, just an observation that I didn't see mentioned before, for whom it may be of interest. Boots just fine into System and Installer without it (HD plugged in the nearer left port, can't right now try...

Probook 4740s, possibly other laptops: It its possible to have the system installer on a partition (useful if the cat keeps stealing thumbdrives). On an external USB3 disk I installed Clover Clover_v2.4k_r4458 and hotpatch (via system installed there), then manually removed...
