Hi, after years of running on my hackintosh, i stupidly modified the kext Whatevergreen and lilu with a tool.
Mac did not start after reboot, I changed the "graphics injector" options with "Load video bios" parameters, the mac started with jerky graphics, with many glitches. With clover configurator I verified that in my efi/clover/kext there was only FakeSMC.kext. I downloaded the default kext and I entered them but in any case the mac does not start anymore.
After exhausting attempts to modify clover boot options I decided to write here.
I attach the verbose mod logs and the installed kext.

Before reinstalling everything from scratch I would like to try to recover the current installation

no need for nvidiagraphicsfixup kext

download fresh versions, maybe reset nvram

failing that, zip and upload your EFI
 
Thanks for your reply.
How can i modify efi? I don't have access to the system

try with your usb installer to boot from and see if you can access macOS that way
 
My installation dates back to a few years ago. I don't have the usb installer. Can I make one now? Do you have a link for a guide?

you may be able to remove the drive and plug it into a windows computer and access the EFI that way

or plug it into another mac

or use another computer to create a new usb installer
 
I created a clover usb boot but the system does not boot. in verbose mode I see errors similar to the previous screens. Can you check my EFI folder? I added nvidiagraphicsfixup kext, removed IntelGraphicsFixup.kext and added FixShutdown in config.plist

Thanks

i mentioned that you should remove nvidiagraphicsfixup kext

iMac18,1 is not suitable for a Skylake system, you should use iMac17,1
 
Oh sorry, I had read wrong.
I removed the disk from the pc, this is the hackintosh's EFI partition.

Yesterday i enter manualy this kext, when I was still able to access the pc. After using the tool the EFI folder contained only FakeSMC.kext.

remove
IntelGraphicsFixup.kext
Lilu.kext.dSYM
WhateverGreen.kext.dSYM
XHCI-x99-injector.kext
XHCI-300-series-injector.kext
XHCI-200-series-injector.kext

iMac17,1 would still be a better choice

also you mentioned you stupidly modified the kexts... in what way?

make sure to replace kexts with new ones
