[Guide] Dell Inspiron 15 7559 (Skylake, i7-6700HQ, Intel HD 530) Using Clover

[Feartech]

yes, that was a noob mistake with multibeast, but my 3,4,5,6,7 try was with clover bootloader.
with clover bootloader i am going with custom install, UEFI, Drivers64UEFI-> OsxAptioFix2Drv-64, RC script on target volume, thats it !


Question RehabMan, should I add or remove anything in the clover installation ? and thanks View attachment 328386 for all your hard work.

as per guide, use Rehabmans' clover and don't use OsxAptioFix2 use Aptiomemoryfix

The guide does not recommend OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi.
Read it carefully:

Don't forget other important Clover configuration (config.plist, other drivers64UEFI content, kexts/Other, etc).

thanks Rehabman, I will try tonight.

again a noob question guys,

1) Is the config.plist ( in HDD/SSD ) is same on every Dell Inspiron 15 7559,Clover UEFI, i7 6700, 1080P, Intel HD 530, nVidia 960M ???
2) same question with the DSDT ?

You will likely want to customize config.plist/SMBIOS for unique serial#/board#.

2) same question with the DSDT ?

You need to extract, then patch your own DSDT.

customizing the config.plist/SMBIOS for unique serial#/board#, should it be done post installation ? I dont see how I can do it pre, unless I do it while creating the bootable usb, chose SMBIOS->drop down menu->MacbBookPro 11.2.
please correct me, thanks for your patience and help.

When you wrote "the config.plist" you did not mention you were referring to pre-install config.plist.
No need to customize these things in pre-install.
No need for patched ACPI for the installer either.

Success, finally, RehabMan you are the man.

as of right now, display, battery, wifi, keyboard all working.
Bluetooth not working, I have to dig in to figure that out.
Odd thing Is sound, I patched my dsdt with RehabMan's laptop patches, audio- layout-3 than 3 to 13, but no luck.
Does anyone know how many Layout need to be changed for the audio ?
Another funny thing before applying the fvco patch my Bluetooth was working
Any thoughts RehabMan!
