Gordo74 - I have been following your thread with interest.
I am trying to come up to speed on Clover and have built a Clover USB boot stick and a USB Clover Yosemite installer per Tony’s guide.
On my daily use workstation which is a Haswell i7-4770k on GA-Z87M-D3H with Mavericks on a 4 HDD RAID-0 system boot drive(s) along with a 2 TB HDD with three partitions (Mavericks, Yosemite, Data). The is a conventional UniBeast/MultiBeast configured system.
Anyway using the Clover USB boot stick, I can boot each of these partitions including the RAID. I found this interesting and went ahead with a test build of UEFI Yosemite/Clover on a lab machine.
The test build is pure vanilla Yosemite 10.10 with all of the configuration via the Clover config.plist from the EFI partition. On this build I am using the internal GPU HD 4600. This system runs without issue. I have not attempted to setup iMessage however.
It appears that many hackers are using UniBeast/MultiBeast for system installation and setup then switching over to Clover for booting. This methodology apparently works in the short term.
In my mind these are “hybrid” systems and may present a whole new set of problems.
I would think that a UniBeast install of OS X without ever running MultiBeast and then setting up Clover in the EFI partition would maintain the integrity of the OS as vanilla.
Anyway just my thoughts. Keep your thread alive as I am following along.
Good modding,
neil
And as an after thought, the Nvidia card solution is interesting as I have a GTX 650 TI Yosemite install that is acting up. I will have to look that fix.
