Just so I don't screw anything up, do I boot from USB to do the post install again to upgrade to 10.11, or should I do all the post install patching booting from SSD?

And specifically which lines do I execute for post install to update config.plist?

Updating to 10.11 from 10.10 is covered in post #1. Did you read it?

I did, I am just unsure of how to update config.plist.
I have already updated clover, fixed EFI/Clover/Kext


Major updates

For example... 10.10 to 10.11.

First step should be to update to the latest repository.

To do so:
Code:
cd ~/Projects/u430.git
git stash
git pull
make
make install
./download.sh
./install_downloads.sh
Also update Clover to the latest using the Clover installer. Be sure to fix EFI/Clover/kexts, so that only EFI/Clover/kexts/Other is existing. All version specific directories under EFI/Clover/kexts should be removed.

Also update config.plist at EFI/Clover/config.plist to the latest content from the repo. Be sure to retain your own SMBIOS data at config.plist/SMBIOS.

Now you can update via the App Store. Just boot the installer/updater upon restart.

After updating, run ./install_downloads.sh again:
Code:
cd ~/Projects/u430.git
./install_downloads.sh

It is covered in the guide. You start with the config.plist from the repo, but copy your SMBIOS to it. It is simple copy/paste in a plist editor.

Sorry, I am just a little confused where the config.plsit - or where the repo is.

I was under the assumption that the config.plist in the repository was obtained by running the codes you listed under 'major updates'

The "final" config.plist is at ~/Projects/u430.git/config.plist.
 
So I transfer the config.plist that is in that folder and put it into EFI/Clover to replace my older one?

- I have attached the View attachment 158341 that was in ~/Projects/u430.git/config.plist

You should transfer your SMBIOS into it before doing that...
 
Hi, so I was able to update to 10.11 smoothy and everything seems to work except for bluetooth, worked in 10.10 for me.

I think you forgot to run ./install_downloads.sh after doing the update.

It is in the update guide, post #1.

I believe I have, but I'll try again!
