How to Generate a SSDT for Power Management
1. Configure system with appropriate SMBIOS for your CPU using Clover Configurator
2. Open Terminal and download Piker Alpha's ssdtPRGen.sh
Code:
curl -o ~/ssdtPRGen.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/master/ssdtPRGen.sh

4. For default SSDT generation, type:
5. Type n, n
6. Open Finder and in menubar choose Go/Go to Folder...
7. Type ~/Library/ssdtPRGen/
8. Mount EFI using

9. Copy SSDT.aml to /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched/
NOTE: The Power Management SSDT should always be SSDT.aml. If you have an SSDT.aml there already, rename it SSDT-1.aml, etc...
10. Reboot
How to Test Power Management
1. Download and compile
