griftopia Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Okay need clarification. When I updated to v4220, yes I installed RC scripts. This was when I was still on Sierra. After inplace High Sierra installation, if I'm supposed to once again install v4220 because RC scripts got trashed, then I need to take a look.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted October 3, 2017 Administrators Share Posted October 3, 2017 yes you probably need to reinstall the rc scripts after an OS update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted October 7, 2017 Author Share Posted October 7, 2017 Tried everything I can think off besides reinstalling Clover with RC scripts. Played with clover.plist settings for Themes/NVRAM and CCC in System Preferences. No dice. Just can't get NVRam to persist Wonder if it's anything to do with APFS. Because I didn't know about automatic conversion to APFS when I upgraded this laptop, that's what I got. Would sure like to get this fixed while I think I should focus on upgrading my precision enoch laptops to 10.13 first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Syonagar Posted October 8, 2017 Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2017 Griftopia, Type the following command from terminal and it should create the nvram.plist:- sudo /etc/rc.shutdown.d/80.save_nvram_plist.local Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted October 8, 2017 Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2017 if syon's terminal command does not create nvram plist then you do not have rc scripts in /etc/ that means you have to follow my suggestion above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Thanks, both. However, I'm having a bad weekend with my Precision M6500. Will look at this soon. EDIT: syon's command did not work installed clover 4243 today. NO difference. Tried syon's command again. NADA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 I have a bigger issue right now. I tried installing the Supplemental Update. It created a menu item for me in clover boot loader. Tried to install and I get dreaded OSinstall.mpkg missing error. What do I do now? I can still boot into my Mac OS and use the laptop, but that menu item is not going to go away and I cannot upgrade EDIT - For once did something different. Actually downloaded update from AppStore. It was half the size of what I downloaded from Apple Web site (???) but it worked! Lost sound after update. Rebuilt permissions and cache and got it back. Finally, while my NVRAM problem not fixed, I saw that CloverThemeManager installed with Clover. Not sure I've seen this option before. And I must have accidently installed it. With it I was able to change the Clover Menu theme. It is actually not the one I selected, but at least it is something that looks better NVRAM is still issue. My brightness setting still not getting saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Syonagar Posted October 12, 2017 Administrators Share Posted October 12, 2017 Dear Griftopia, Try to install clover again but with selecting "Install RC scripts on target volume" only. After that check if rc.shutdown.d is in /etc If its there then run "sudo /etc/rc.shutdown.d/80.save_nvram_plist.local" If its still not there try to install clover again but with the EFI partition mounted.
