Sharkattack Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Hello guys, amazing site you have here, really. I have a question - is it possible to prepare installer from Linux or Windows? I have no Mac available, so can't use all these Mac-only tools. I found a Sierra installer usb image on the net, and unzipped bootpack contents from here https://osxlatitude.com/topic/8506-dell-latitude-inspiron-precision-vostro-xps-clover-guide/ . The clover screen shows up all right, but when I try to boot, apple logo shows up and reboot. Can I enable some boot logging? How do I verify what's wrong? If I have to, I'll make a Mac VM for myself today and do it over. I'll be grateful for some tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted April 20, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 20, 2018 Let's determine what version of Clover it's running. When you get to the Clover screen, on the lower right corner should show the version. Then hit the spacebar which brings you to some boot options. Enable verbose and debug 0x100 mode, then boot from that. It should show you in verbose mode where the error lies. Post screenshot here. If I have to guess, I think it's the DVMT prealloc issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted April 20, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 20, 2018 Ok, I see the issue. You're missing Lilu.kext, that needs to be in the same folder as IntelGraphicsDVMTFixup.kext. What's your system's specs? Does it have HD 4400 or HD 5500? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkattack Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 I have HD 5500. I've downloaded the kext you mentioned and finally got it to boot ! My gentleman, you are a treasure! If all goes well, I'll mark the thread as solved. Edit: It really worked Thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
