Using the example from my Z490 Vision D, the issue with OpenCore is as follows:Again, that's not "linux" detection, that's just showing grub in the menu, unlike clover that has hardcoded paths that it looks for, OpenCore does not have any hardcoded paths to look for but it checks the firmware and other partition information to get boot entries (like macOS boot.efi, and for windows, it assumes bootx64 that is found in your EFI drive as a windows system, like a real mac would do). For me, I'm literally running the kernel directly without any need for another bootloader like grub/systemd-boot, since most linux kernels support EFISTUB and can be ran as an EFI application.
In order for OpenCore to be UEFI-compliant or at least consistent with prevailing UEFI norms, it needs to handle this case because both Linux and Windows add their boot loaders into the first EFI partition they find (by default). So a single computer with multiple operating systems will have one EFI partition with multiple sub-directories -- one for each of the OSes.I don't think OpenCore will change in that regard, it will just check for boot entries like a mac would do (that's the behavior acidanthera is going for), so for it to detect Linux like Clover do will most likely never happen, if you want you can just copy grubx64 binary to boot folder and rename it to bootx64, and it will do the job, or add the entry manually which is not wrong either. Check Misc section of OpenCore documentation (Dortania's html documentation conversion from pdf for webviewing).
spacebar preview!
Shanee does have some patches for Adobe and other apps. They are also working on performance issues.Speaking as someone who built a Ryzen 3900 XT system just last month, on OpenCore for the first time, I can heartily recommend OpenCore.
However I am now back on an Intel i7 10700 build instead. The Ryzen was super-fast and all that, but the lack of virtualisation apps (except Virtualbox), some unexplained weirdness with XCode no Android EMulator (see virtualisation) and the failure of most Adobe Creative Studio apps to even launch ended it for me.
That said - the AMD announcement is great news from www.tonymacx86.com
Because there is no Intel CPU with 12 core, I think.
Yes, yes, and yesCan someone say in layman's terms what advantage AMD has.
Cheaper faster and more powerful is all I know but is this true?
