[SOLVED] Latitude E6530 High Sierra Upgrade using Clover


esmith1966

Recommended Posts

Tried to upgrade to Clover with my E6530...

 

downloaded High Sierra

 

used this command

 

/Applications/"Install macOS High Sierra.app"/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO --agreetolicense

 

because didn't want my HD to convert to the new format...

 

AND because a previous attempt trashed the HD...

 

____ 

 

 

The machine rebooted...

 

Got a screen with a scrambled Apple Logo and a swirling circle...

 

this went on and on and on...

 

Finally determined that the upgrade didn't really work...

 

______

 

Unsure about what to do...

I mean does the system only have HD 4000 or it has Optimus ?

For me HDMI only works with NVS5200m, but according to FrostytheSnowman, he's able to get HDMI working with both Optimus and only HD4000 on Sierra.

 

See his E6430 guide here

That bootpack is for model with HD4000 Only, your system has dual GPU.

Try this bootpack, replace to /EFI/Clover

 

It should disable the Nvs5200m, but HDMI won't work.

If you want to use HDMI, you'll need to disable Optimus.

I'll upload another bootpack for that after I tested it.
