Artisto Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 My Asus k-53E/clover after working excellent after all this time suddenly stopped booting up and now only hangs on the apple screen after a progress bar which takes a very long time to complete then shows nothing for. I tried recreating a unifail installer and everything seems to work against me. The unifail installer goes nowhere after a longtime copying files and never does so. My next option is to try using my hack (which I'm not familiar with) but after watching a video on how to do so, there seems to require a DMG file that I can't locate. I have my copy of Mountain Lion in my applications folder on another mac and through the unifail method would only require that much. Myhack seems to require loading the DMG file which I have no idea how to get. Also, after so much looking around for explanations to installing clover, I still can't understand which options to select from a complicated dialogue box to get my system going correctly. Can anyone please help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 When you get this kind of problems, boot your system with -v and look in which line it will stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisto Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 Thanks for the quick reply, that was the first thing I did and saw nothing alarming or unusual or any other error, either way I will provide a shot of what it does, maybe...I'm afraid to restart it. It just said something like thank you end of all processes or something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Boot with -v debug=0x100, and post a photo here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't boot at all !!! PLEASE HELP WHAT DO I DO?

Moderators Jake Lo Posted September 16, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 16, 2018 Let's not get off topic here. Regarding your Asus, what OS X were you running? What version of Clover was it running? Can you post the Clover folder that was working for review? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisto Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 Sorry for getting off topic just very anguished that both my systems coincidently appear to be damaged. On my Asus K53 E I'm running Clover version 3974 MOUNTAIN LION . When I start my Asus, clover appears, but after that the apple logo screen comes up and a progress bar appears, it goes for a long time then nothing happens. I tried to reinstall OS X and the partition will not appear, I then tried to repair the partition and the partition appears as corrupted therefore not appearing as an option for installation source. Can I still recover my data off the partition ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
