[Guide] Booting the OS X installer on LAPTOPS with Clover

[Gigamaxx]

Can anyone advise a best next step? It feels like I'm almost over the line ..

Use clover boot menu and cursor to go to Options tab, hit enter. Then go to binaries and see what the device ID is for the CPU. Try CPUID 0x0206A0.

IF it moves further but gets stuck at graphics try the same then go to Graphics settings and set ig platform 0x01000000.

Below are the device IDs for Sandy bridge and HD3000 graphics these would go in the graphics device ID one at a time for testing.
HD3000 device IDs
0x01068086 0x06018086 0x01168086 0x01028086 0x01268086

Sandy Bridge FB
0x01068086 0x11068086 0x16018086 01168086 01268086

Ok here is my screen. I can see my CPUID. Is the fake CPUID supposed to match this? What should I do with the information in front of me ?

Tries changing CPUID to 0x0206A0 . Still can't get past this part. Do I keep trying different CPUID's , where can I find a list of other ones to try ?

Any other ideas anyone? I think I'm sort of on the right track on which I've found where the issue is ...

Is it even possible that my CPU is damaged? Because I'm also 100% sure that the 4530s CPU is completely compatible. I did have OSX running before on Mavericks without an issue on this machine.

Update.

I got past this issue by opening my plist (using plist edit pro) and renaming DropTables->##DropTables and renaming #DropTables->DropTables as mentioned in the earlier part of the guide (copy and pasted below)


Note regarding CPU power management and SSDTs

If you're getting a panic in AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement and/or SMC_ACPI_PlatformPlugin it may be related to your OEM CPU power management related SSDTs.

Some systems may need to drop some of the OEM SSDTs. This happens most frequently with Sandy Bridge systems (but not all). There are two configurations for DropTables in the provided config.plist files. The default is minimal. The alternate is named #DropTables and is a bit more aggressive. Each configuration resides in config.plist/ACPI. You can use the alternate by renaming DropTables->##DropTables and renaming #DropTables->DropTables (in that order). Depending on how the OEM labels the tables, this may or may not work. If you still have issues, set config.plist/ACPI/SSDT/DropOem=true. You will need to set config.plist/ACPI/SSDT/Generate=true (or the individual CStates/PStates=true) to use DropOem=true or the alternate DropTables.

Always use a plist editor (such as Xcode or PlistEdit Pro) to edit config.plist.

yes, if you have supported hardware and necessary kexts in clover/kexts/other

The 4530s is a well tested computer. Is there anywhere I can find all kexts in one place to dump them into the OTHER folder ?

Ok guys almost there. Tell me if I have done something wrong. I have got to the stage where I have partitioned my Disk (1 partition) , I installed the operating system , and am now at the desk top.

Now I can't find any clear instructions about how to install Clover over my operating system. The instructions say it's the same method as installing to usb , but that method involved making two partitions and If i do that I will delete my installed operating system. Can someone point me in the right direction, i'm sure it's something simple I'm missing.
