Yeah that’s the crazy thing - all drives are removed except the Ubuntu usb. And memtest86 is still pulling in Apple SMBIOS info. I’ll boot into Ubuntu later and see what it has to show. If it shows in Ubuntu then the board has something modified.
It may not have been clover that did that, as I’ve hacked this rig multiple times over the years, even before clover was a thing.
One last arm wave...
Does memest write any config file that it then looks for on later runs?
Like what if you ran mentest under an injected loader and it made some helpful notes to itself and put them in a file on some partition, then you changed to a more benign loader but when memtest starts it picks up the notes for previous config.
...This is truly just wild guessing
Best luck
