Guide To Install Yosemite on HP Laptops with Clover UEFI

[RehabMan]

will having a look at my config.plist help? Permissions - reboot with cache disabled then Kext wizard and reboot twice did not have effect.

Make sure you used the latest PBI-CE to update your config.plist, DSDT, kexts, etc.

Then...

Must be done in the correct order.

- repair permissions (just in case, probably not needed)
- reboot without caches
- rebuild cache

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u /

- reboot (sometimes 2x)

Clover Config file.

Thanks all.

The config.plist is not updated for 10.11. Are you using 10.11 or 10.10?

10.10 - My thought was to get a stable 10.10 before going to 10.11.
Do you suggest I just go all in and move to 10.11?

AN interesting aside... when I boot without caches I watch the verbose text and see something about rebuilding kernelcache - just in case that matters.
Thanks.

using PBI 6.4.4

using PBI 6.4.4

Another inetresting thing - the PBI puts a 10.9 folder in my EFI kexts? Does it think I STILL have mavericks instead of yosemite? I moved from Chameleon 10.9.4 to Clover 10.10.

That's bad news. Kernel cache should already be built before.

PBI supports 10.9, 10.10, and 10.11.

Lol - No kidding.
I have my CCC backup of my Mavericks.
During the Yosemtie install it had problems creating boot drives(?) - said try again - I did - and it continued fine the second attempt.
I am converting a multi boot (win 7, Linux and Mac) - I can get to the other installs through legacy.
Might just have to start from scratch or use voodoo for audio if I must.
Thanks for the background and knowledge - and most importantly the MOST valuable thing any of us has - your time.

Thanks for directing me to the terminal to rebuild cache - I can see the problem - the cache rebuild is failing and kext wizard never said anything.
