[Guide] Lenovo Z50-70/Z40-70/G50-70/G40-70 using Clover UEFI

[the-braveknight]

I was sure that I followed instructions thoroughly, but after third reading of "Problem Reporting" I've realised that CLOVER is missing.
Sorry, here it is.

Your kextcache output shows no AppleHDAInjector.kext installed.

In Terminal:

cd ~/Projects/lenovo.git
./X50.sh --download-requirements
./X50.sh --install-downloads

FYI, your repo is not up to date. Make sure you pull latest repo changes.

I've updated using update instructions in post #1.
My AppleHDAInjector.kext was and is in L/E folder but macOS in not loading it (screenshot in attachment).

Thanks

Follow instructions mentioned in post #1 regarding Audio problems. Also post new problem reporting files.

Audio is still not working (after "sudo touch" and reboot).
Here are problem reporting files.
Forgot to mention that I had to disable nVidia card in BIOS to be able to boot macOS.

Audio is still not working (after "sudo touch" and reboot).

Correct procedure:
- boot without caches (press space bar in Clover to access the option)
- rebuild cache (sudo kextcache -i /)
- reboot

You shouldn't have to do that; it's already done in ACPI. Unless you're using the latest repo patches, it is NOT good to disable it in BIOS and it might cause other problems.

Follow instructions mentioned in post #1 carefully and re-run all repo terminal commands.

There is no "without caches" option in clover (ver 2.4k rev 4256)

Use RehabMan's Clover fork. Or boot with '-f' boot-arg.

 

[Feartech]

There is no "without caches" option in clover (ver 2.4k rev 4256)

Rehabman's version of clover has the option

There is no "without caches" option in clover (ver 2.4k rev 4256)

Hence the recommendation in the guide to use my version of Clover:
