New Clover Release v5.1 r5123/4/5/6/7 - Big Sur Support

[Feartech]

Is there any documentation about the quirks? Are they chipset dependent? Trying to figure out how to configure them properly

yes they are chipset dependant, and going by your hardware profile.... oh wait.....

Thank you for reply.

I've tried VirtualSMC and removed all FakeSMC(Plugin kexts as well) but the same problem.
I will see what may I have missed. I will let you guys soon.

Lol, very funny. I'm not asking for help installing macos on any specific hardware and don't want anyone to touch my config.plists, i'm trying to figure out the logic behind the quirks section - it's 2 completely different things.

I had the same issue (Kernel Panic) it was caused by FakeSMC.kext and the its kext plugins.
remove all the FakeSMC kexts and replace them for VirtualSMC and its plugins.

Ok so I did your recommendation to remove all related FakeSMC files and replace to VirtualSMC and its plugins. But it shows me the same panic. It all works fine with 5122. But not from 5133...and I want to be ready for BigSur. Please help.

Did you remove SMCHelper.efi as well?

Please refer the below screenshots of what i have in UEFI Drivers, Kexts, APCI Patches and Quirks in Clover configurator. I also have attached my config.plist for your convenience, i can see you have a CoffeLake CPU similar to the one that i have so my config.plist and my EFI Clover files can help you.

UPDATE: This also works with Clover 5125!!!

I have done everything as required and still cant get it to boot. I get to the clover menu and can change options and select other drives. As soon as I click the MacOS drive it freezes on the picker screen. What am I doing wrong?

Check the BIOS settings..... and be sure you have the SSDT files in the folder ACPI patched, you can check my config.plist and compare.
