The current 4049 revision fixed me up, thanks!

Thank you, I was a bit tired doing this last night. This Clover installer doesn't give me the choice to choose "options" and add Drivers 64UEFI & Install RC Scripts, which I need for my GPU to work. I guess I'll have to wait for the full release.

Did not work for me. I've verified i have r4035 installed deleted .metadata_never_indes from / Did: sudo mdutil -i off / sudo rm -rf /.Spotlight* sudo mdutil -i on / sudo mdutil -E / rebooted and .metadata_never_index is back in the root folder No idea what to do from here

I just installed the latest version of Clover, went through the steps of deleting .metadata_never_index, rebuilding the database and starting the service and then rebooted. .metadata_never_index is back in the root drive and so spotlight is still not functioning. Edit: Oh wait, those commits...

There are links in the thread that have other OSX system options that may or may not work for you. Again, there is a bug in Clover that was fixed in the patch so not sure if there is a choice?

Actually didn't work to after next reboot. Check this, you might want to update clover and see if issue persists: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/metadata_never_index-cant-be-removed-preventing-spotlight-from-working-in-el-capitan.217957

See reply below. Sorry on mobile.

Ok I'll try updating Clover tonight, hopefully that will fix it, thank you.

Ok so I'm at a loss for why this is happening, but spotlight will not work correctly on my hack. No matter what I do, .metadata_never_index keeps showing up at the root folder, preventing spotlight from displaying any results from my Mac SSD. Is this possibly a permissions thing or a clover...

I found this thread on stack exchange that worked for me in 10.6.11. Make sure to use sudo before the command to invoke root privileges: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/24401/spotlight-reports-indexing-and-searching-disabled-in-lion/35073#35073

I'm having a similar issue with spotlight (although I have El Capitan). It's working for listing web results but it isn't listing any applications when I search for them. I have a dual boot system also with two seperate ssd, one for win10 and one for 10.11.6. Looks like there are a few things...

Installed and working! I had to use iMac14,1 even though my processor matches 17,1 as display was not working with that config (even with nvda_drv=1). The help thread mentions a suspicion that the Apple servers sometimes check the processor against model so hopefully will continue working...

Have you had any issues with the graphics card using iMac 17,1? I ask because the system shipped with Radeon graphics so I'm wondering if NVIDIA is supported? Apparently the card I'm running is a bit finicky (Asus 750ti). Looking forward to giving this guide a go tonight.
