Hello,

I've installed Clover 2.4k r4061 and I'm wondering how to skip the first 'Clover Boot Manager' screen without having to hit a key (see first image). I've figured out how to auto boot a volume and set a timeout. So, the issue is not with the typical process (see second image). I just can't seem to get the Boot Manager screen to auto load to the next process without first having to hit a key, which kind of defeats the purpose of designating an auto boot volume and a timeout on the next screen. Any recommendations? Is the 'Fast' Boot option what I'm after as a config.plist edit? I've included a few other images as well. Thanks!

Trying to skip this without hitting a key:

Will do. Just to confirm, I want to delete the key and string presumably - or just the key? Thanks for your first reply. Looking forward to trying that solution.
Delete the key and string.
 
Remove the DefaultLoader key from your config.plist if you have it.
See [Solved] Can not skip the selection screen of Clover

Unfortunately, DefaultLoader isn't present in config.plist. Further to your other recommendations in the linked thread, I've double-checked the install settings in Clover (EmuVariableUefi-64 and Install RC scripts are both present). Here's what I've got (SMPDetection is the last key).

Try changing the DefaultVolume to the GUID or device path.
See https://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/Boot#boot_defaultvolume

Okay, I've tried that. Same issue as before. Have to hit a key to go from the first screen to the boot loader screen. Once it's on the boot loader screen, the timeout begins and works as you'd expect. The only way I can skip that first screen with the clover icon (though the solution is not ideal) is by ticking the 'Fast' boot option in Clover Configurator. However, this seems to skip the boot loader altogether. Thanks for your help so far!
