Thanks, is updating going to be an issue, or just a straight forward update.
e.g if going from 10.9.2 to 10.9.3, or from 10.9x1 to 10.9x2

Here is the beta version of Probook Installer Clover edition, which supports vanilla Clover UEFI install. It's under developement so please test on a clean install and backup your EFI partition.

@appleiscool: if this is successful, you can update to any version and everything will work.

@Joyfult: Clover 2654.

Until you can confirm this works for you perfectly, I can't add your laptop.

Thanks to all involved.

I tested on my 8470p:

- Delete all installed kexts in S/L/E/ (in my case, only IDT 7605).
- Mount EFI partition and delete /EFI/Boot/ and /EFI/CLOVER/ folder
- Restart with CLOVER USB.

Run PBI and select like OP.

Restart and I get no sound, use Kext Wizard to rebuild cache, everything works again.

Mines all setup as "vanilla" now anyway, done it the manual way eventually.

But good to know for clean installs thats for sure, and I think clover is certainly the way forward these days.

 

[mr-andrek]

Nicely done. Could you please share the sources on github, like philippetev does?

@Joyfult: Clover 2654.

Ok. And if we want to update just clover to the 2654 version (btw, which is the changelog?)? how we have to do? can we use this pbi to do it?

Thanks!
