Hi all,
I have had a stable Mojave clover boot the last 6 months, and decided to get a new graphics card (rx580).
In the process of tinkering around trying to get that up & running, I downloaded some kext updates. (Whatever green, lilu, and a couple of the Apple ones). I added these updates to the clover directory, but was still unable to get the radeon card working. Anyway fast forward to the brain fail. I was reading that installing kext updates into Library / Extensions had helped some people with the RX 580. Had a bad night of sleep and ended up copying the updated Kexts via finder into Library / extensions by mistake instead of installing them.
This has led to a situation where the machine freezes at the "no entry" logo on boot, with the verbose text USBMSC Identifier. Screenshot attached.
i recently moved interstate and can no longer find the USB installer I made originally, so I am out of ideas. I tried a wide range of Clover boot options, but nothing is helping. Feels pretty broken.
Is my only option to buy another copy of Mojave / Catalina and make a new USB install, or does anyone have a bright idea
?
ps - i am a true fool
