I’ve hit a dead end in transitioning from Clover to OpenCore 0.6.4 and I’d like to ask the community for some guidance. I’ve searched the forums and followed Dortania’s excellent OpenCore guide, tweaked my config.plist after running it through the Sanity Check and have attached my current OpenCore EFI folder with Xs in place of my MLB, SystemSerialNumber, and SystemUUID. I’ve disabled and enabled the BIOS settings recommended by the Guide that are available to me. My BIOS lacks CFG Lock, so my config.plist enables AppleCpuPmCfgLock and AppleXcpmCfgLock.
I'm booting OpenCore from a Patriot 16GB USB 2.0 stick (HFS+ with GUID partition map). My computer boots from the EFI, but when I select a drive from the OpenCore text menu, it displays many lines of messages and then loops back to the menu. My current hardware specs are in my profile, and I have disconnected all drives except an M.2 SATA boot drive running MacOS 10.13.6 High Sierra.
I’ve ruled out USB stick incompatibilities by trying two other USB 3.0 sticks, and by copying the OpenCore EFI to my boot drive’s EFI and trying to boot from there. I’ve also copied it to a SATA SSD with the same results. I’ve reset the NVRAM from the OpenCore boot menu and tried changing the AAPL,ig-platform-id values between 00001219 and 01001219 for the iGPU.
I’d be grateful if someone with more knowledge would review my EFI and give me your thoughts. My OpenCore logs show a number of possible errors, but I don’t know enough to tell which ones are inconsequential and which ones matter. Thanks very much for your time.
