I am extremely sorry to report that I am an idiot. Not having properly understood what the new Clover installer was for and assuming that my board did not natively support NVRAM when it actually does, I had used the new Tonymacx86 clover installer when I did this latest install.
It would seem one of the side-effects of doing so on a mobo that does support NVRAM natively is this spurious dialogue on start up about the machine having shut down because of a problem and then this report being generated which points the finger at ALXEthernet.kext. How and why this happens is beyond me, especially since this kext has never ever been installed on this machine as the above thread demonstrates I believe. Understanding why there would be a KP as the machine shuts down and is presumably writing to NVRAM is a little easier - and P1LGRIMS suggestion that it must be something to do with NVRAM was what ultimately allowed me to fix my previous blunder.
I hugely appreciate the help! Thank you!
I tried to clear nvram on terminal, but got an error of permission denied. How did you solve the issue?
