griftopia Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 So I'd been occupied and haven't kept with the OS updates. After I made the transition to Clover, in place upgrades had been working great. However on this machine they are not. When I try upgrade and restart, I get the extra menu to start OSX install but when I select it, I get the apple logo around 25% of progress bar and then my laptop restarts. Then I thought may be the problem is because I need to apply updates in sequence. So I downloaded 10.13.2 and tried. Same thing. I have an SSD install which I had completed following guide available here. If anyone experiencing same issue as me and have a solution would really appreciate it.

EXEPOWERED Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 You probably need to enable FixHeaders since you updated Clover, it's been moved to a different location. The original Config needs to be updated for this change. from: I don't really know how to do that, but I hope that somebody will give us a fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 So I haven't updated Clover. I have another laptop E6330 which is at 10.13.4. Let me try upgrade that to 10.13.5 first and see what happens. If I have trouble will start thread to fix that first and then come back here.

EXEPOWERED Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I am downloading 10.13.5 update now. I will try to update my Latitude E5440 from 10.13.4 and I will make an EDIT right after. EDIT: System update finished successfully. 1. System downloaded an update 2. System rebooted automaticly 3. I needed to run Install from XXX manualy 4. System finished update procedure 5. System booted up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 Appreciate it. So my other laptop E6330 did upgrade from 10.13.4 to 10.13.5 without issue. I have some other kext issues but I can fix those. Now, I checked my config.plist already has FixHeaders_20000000 checked for my E5440. Trying 10.13.2 but no dice. Maybe I need to start over? How do I get rid of the extra menu item and any associated files? Frankly since I first tried 10.13.5 from AppStore and then 10.13.2 manually, I don't even know what upgrade is being attempted. PS - One thing I forgot to mention. At the back of my mind I think this might be my issue. My laptop is dual boot with Windows. Maybe this precludes in place upgrades (I hope not!). Or maybe I have to do something for NOT using APFS? Because I recall doing something when I installed first time since I wanted to dual boot windows and APFS will not work for that option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted June 10, 2018 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2018 Run diskutil list for virtual drive. If found, run diskutil cs revert /dev/disk# <- # is the drive found with core storage reboot Delete the folder in the root pertaining to the update (can't remember the actual folder name) Rerun the update reboot update will reboot a couple of times before completing Note: If you're using latest Clover, FixHeaders_20000000 has been renamed to FixHeaders and moved to a different location. Use latest Clover Configurator to update it. See here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 @EXEPOWEREDSo I know APFS without dual boot fine. That's how I have my E6330 with SSD and it upgraded. My E5540 also has SSD but with HFS and dual boot @Jake Lo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griftopia Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 @Jake LoI don't think I have virtual drive. I mean in output from diskutil list I don't see any word "virtual". I'm assuming it will show up that way. Please let me know I'm looking for something different. Now I'm not using the most recent Clover. If you are saying I need to use new Clover else I cannot upgrade I can certainly try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll reboot a couple of times before completion. So reboot and select Install MacOS from ...again until that option is gone, then you know it's completed.
