Hi,
I have created the USB with catalina and mounted the EFI folder on it and copied your EFI folder. Made the BIOS changes but when trying to boot the laptop from USB, clover is only giving option to boot from WIN but no Install MAc from USB?
What am I missing?
Thanks
Ensure your clover/drivers/uefi folder has following files:Is it because of hardware. My laptop s340 said it's 10 gen Intel i7 processor.
And the steps I did for creating USB are:
1. Format the 16 gb USB with Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and GUID. But not APFS.
2. install Mac is catalina either with command or with the help of patcher(install bootable Mac)
3. Install latest clover on to the USB, and copy your files to EFI folder.
what am I missing?
Ensure your clover/drivers/uefi folder has following files:
- ApfsDriverLoader.efi
- FSInject.efi
- NvmExpressDxe.efi
- AptioMemoryFix.efi
- Fat.efi
- VirtualSmc.efi
- DataHubDxe.efi
- HFSPlus.efi
Can you try booting from the same USB on another computer ?
You dont have to boot into the Catalina installer - Just check that it shows up.
As per rules, please update your hardware profile to allow others to help you easierAs I have copied your EFI folder in full, I think all above files will be there. Also, while trying numerous times, I made sure all the files are there in EFI folder.
Also, try F3 or Fn+F3 on clover screen, and see if that shows the OSX installer.

I will not be with my laptop for a couple of days. I will reply here with my updates.
Trying with Unibeast make any difference? Also with Catalina 10.15.3 got anything to do with my issue?
