rockystar Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 hi, OK i have maverickas up and running well my issue is that i have to boot from the usb. I mounted the efi partition on the hard drive and coppied everything over but for some reason it still says no boot device found unless i use the usb. Is there anything particular about the usb efi partition that might be different from the standard one that osx creates durring install. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 There are other steps than copying the EFI http://Olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3405&p=33648#p33648 It works only for UEFI boot. If your mobo doesn't support it, you need to install Clover with the boot0af or boot0ss option.

rockystar Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 i guess my question is why does the pendrive boot from efi and not the hard drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 If you use UEFI, it boots because it has /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi in the EFI partition. If you use legacy, it boots because it has Clover EFI boot sectors in MBR and PBR of the EFI partition.

rockystar Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 ok then that's my problem my hard drive is formatted as gpt can i instal the legacy bootsecotrs to a gpt formatted drive. My laptop does have uefi but as it turns out the bios is locked down no way to access it to add the drive as a bott device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Yes, you can install legacy boot sectors to GPT, the USB image is GPT too. Use the Clover pkg installer.

Last time i did that i couldnt get it to not mount on start up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Choose the OS X volume as install location and check the options "Install Clover in the ESP" and "Install boot0ss in MBR".

rockystar Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Ok, it works great my only issue is that EFI mounts like a regular hard drive now. I have it set in the config not to mount. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Did you erase EFI with diskutil eraseVolume? It should not be auto mounted unless you did that or set MountEFI=true http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/RtVariables#MountEFI Quote -Donations- PayPal HERE - Stripe HERE - BuyMeaCoffee HERE - Mercado Livre HERE Skrill danielnmaldonado@gmail.com - BTC 33HeGCuCSh4tUBqdYkQqKpSDa1E7WeAJQ3 PicPay @danielnmaldonado - PiX @danielnmaldonado@gmail.com Premium Users HERE - Problems with Paypal HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeytung Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Hi, I try to install OS X into my laptop (Acer Aspire V3 772G) I can boot from USB using legacy in bios settings and using Clover I got some trouble before the installation but everything went fine after I replaced the Mach_Kernel with the patched kernel from here: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/173-109-kernel-xcpm-free/ The installation was a success but when I tried to boot OS X on the HDD, I got a infinite reboot loop in loading driver. I tried many boot args such as "-v -f GraphicsEnabler=Yes PciRootUID=0", "-v -f GraphicsEnabler=No PciRootUID=0", etc (I searched as many as possible from the internet but it still got me into infinite reboot loop.) After hours of trying, I try another method by setting my bios configuration to UEFI boot. I still couldn't boot from HDD but it shows something like this: Loading Drivers...................................................................... Error reading driver XXXXXXXXXX ................................ Error reading driver XXXXXXXXXX ............................ Error reading driver XXXXXXXXXX ..................... (X is the kexts location) I tried to boot in safe mode, without cache, verbose, etc but no success. Any ideas? (I can boot Windows 8.1 normally in Clover bootloader on my USB and even without USB using Windows Boot Manager when choosing UEFI mode in BIOS) Thanks in advance!! My computer specs: Acer V3 772G CPU: Intel i7-4702MQ 2.2 GHz GPU: Nvidia GTX 760M (with Intel HD Graphics 4600) 120GB SSD and 1TB HDD (trying to install OS X in one of the three partitions) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pernacabeluda Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Hi, you have to replace mach_kernel in the installed system as well, and the first boot without caches (press space bar).

Thank you for your reply : ) How do I replace mach_kernel in my installed system? I try to use TranMac but I can't seem to write files into the installed partition. Thanks in advance!

pernacabeluda Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 You can use the installer, open the terminal (utilities menu on the top) and copy it to the system partition cp /mach_kernel /Volumes/"Mavericks volume name"/ If the Mavericks partition is not mounted, mount it using Disk Utility.

I finally managed to boot the HDD. Thank you very much! I am still in the process of searching the kexts for my drivers.
