Oh, I understand. I've pressed F2, followed by F4 at the Clover boot menu and then I ran gen_debug again. While running gen_debug, I got an Xcode-tools install prompt, so I installed that before generating my debug_xxxx.zip this time.

Attached to this post, you'll find my latest debug_xxxx.zip that contains my CLOVER folder. Thanks for explaining this to me.

Your ioreg/kextcache proves you forgot to install SATA-100-series-unsupported.kext.

After installing SATA-100-series-unsupported.kext to /L/E/, nothing seems to have changed on the system. I'm still seeing graphical corruption (see attached image) after the display wakes from sleep, followed by a total system freeze. I've also attached my latest debug_xxxx.zip.

It might be DVMT-prealloc related.
If you can set DVMT-prealloc to 64mb (or 128mb), eliminate the 32mb DVMT patch, you might have better result.

The 32mb DVMT patch is default in all guide plists.
But if you have issues with it, you should consider setting DVMT-prealloc to 64mb or larger such that the patch is not needed.

Such a setting does not exist in my BIOS, is it possible to modify this value using a UEFI shell via Clover? What risks would I be taking if I did this?

The freeze after sleep issue I'm experiencing isn't that much of a problem, I'll just disable sleep mode. I'd much rather focus on getting battery percentage readout working correctly, because I can't use my laptop unless it's plugged in (macOS is telling the ACPI battery memory that it's dead and it won't charge (even while the laptop is off)). I was able to resolve this via Windows when I previously attempted to hackintosh this laptop - boot Windows and let the laptop die, this reset the battery's memory and re enabled the charging function.

The shell provided with Clover does not have the setup_var command.
That requires a special version of the UEFI shell. See various guides linked from the FAQ.

If you do it incorrectly, you could brick your laptop.

It may be a good strategy to work on other things you haven't done yet anyway, as finishing those things may help...

Sounds good, where should I begin while trying to fix my battery percentage? The battery patch I used was HP-G6-2221ss as the variables seemed to match. When this didn't work, I followed your guide on building your own patch (I'm also using your OS-X-ACPI-Battery-Driver kext). I believe I did this correctly, but the battery won't charge at all. When I initially applied the patch, my laptop had about 47% remaining, and macOS was able to display this, but the percentage didn't decrease until the laptop died, and I haven't been able to charge it since.

The HP G6 2221ss patch seems like the correct patch.

Keep in mind slow boot due to HDD may require tweaked abm_firstpolldelay.
