Guide To Install Yosemite on HP Laptops with Clover UEFI

I purchased a used HP ProBook with the following specs:
Probook 6570b, 1600x900, Core I5-3210M 2.5Ghz, 320 GB HDD.

I have 2 questions regarding the list under Compatible WIFI cards:
1. is the category "Other laptop" applicable for the 6570b

Yes. It is obvious it doesn't fit in any of the previous laptop categories.

2. in the HP documentation for this laptop both Centrino and Broadcom wifi cards (
Broadcom 43228 802.11abgn 2 × 2 Wi-Fi Adapter) are listed. Do I still need to replace this with a Broadcom 43224

Yes. Neither of the stock WiFi cards are supported, as should be clear from post #1.

You have to choose "Detect Displays" in SysPrefs->Displays (hold down Option for the button to appear).

You should also examine your config.plist to be sure the patch that enables VGA is active.

i tried that but doesn't work :(

i can edit that with the OS installed? where is that file?


Sorry for my bad english
 
Mount your EFI partition. It is located on the EFI partition at EFI/CLOVER/config.plist.

It would be a good idea for you to become more familiar with the software you're using: http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Home


ok! i find it!


here is my config.plist, but i don't know what modify :(

I really have no idea why it is not working. You'll have to experiment on your own.

Obviously, there's something you're doing different from others and contrary to the instructions, but I'm able to further diagnose from here.

If you want any opinion, you should post your files and details on the result. Just saying "not working" does not give enough to go on.

The things I can come up with are:

1. I download the installer from the App store and create the USB on a hackintoshed Probook and not on a real Mac. But I believe others are in the same boat. Or am I the only one?

2. There is something wrong with BIOS settings.

I created the USB several times now, following steps 2a and 2b in post #1. All with the same results, posted earlier in this thread. I also tried the Unibeast method with the same result.

The patch is active. If it is not working, then your device is not compatible. Try a different one, or use an HDMI->VGA adapter.

No idea without seeing your files.

You should reset BIOS to defaults. Make sure you have a relatively recent BIOS.
