TheGod Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Hi All, I try to install the latest Mojave on E5540, however I could not find any guide about it. Is there any updated E5540_Mojave.zip file? Thanks for any help in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGod Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Thanks for your help and support! Here is my ssystem configuration (Dell E5540): CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4300U CPU @ 1.90GHZ RAM: 8.00 GB CD-ROM: MATSHITA DVD+-RW UJ8FB Audio: Realtek High Definition Audio Display: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family Touchpad: Dell Touchpad Ethernet: Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I218-LM Wifi: Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 Serial: Intel(R) Active Management Technology - SOL Disk: KINGSTON SUV400S37120G (128 GB SSD) USB: Intel(R) 8 Series USB Enhanced Host Controller Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller I am planning to use an Atheros AR-9462 Wifi moduleif the Intel AC 7260 is not supported. Last night I was able to install Mojave in VirtualBox, and started to create my first bootable Clover Mojave boot USB stick. Following the guide, I tried to install Clover from the sourceforge link, but it failed to install because it was not compatible with my macOS version (which is the Mojave 10.14). I had some success with the Clover Configurator, and was able to create my first USB stick and hacked together some EFi folder from your suggested bootpack and other EFI zip folders. I went really far in the install, but after the reboot it got a kernel panic. I still need to learn a lot about these bootpacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 11, 2018 Moderators Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hmm, Clover from SourceForge is usually the latest and does support the latest MacOS Mojave. At Clover boot screen, press the spacebar. Select verbose and debug 0x100 mode, continue with the installation. Post KP if you encounter it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGod Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 My Clover issue is, that after downloading Clover_v2.4k_r4798.zip and installing Clover_v2.4k_r4798.pkg in Mojave (VirtualBox), the install failed because incompatible version.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 12, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 12, 2018 https://github.com/Dids/clover-builder/releases there you have latest clover option plus iso and just the clover binary without having to use the package installer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 12, 2018 Moderators Share Posted December 12, 2018 @TheGod You don't install Clover to the Virtual box, you suppose to install to the USB installer you're creating from the Virtual Box. Select customize and then pick the USB Drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGod Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 I think I made good progress, but still stuck with some issues. I've tried couple of EFIs with bootpacks as suggested, howewver I could not even pass Clover, my laptop just kept rebooting. The EFI pack, which worked for me pretty well is from It got installed almost perfectly, most features work: ethernet, wifi, brightness, touchpad, keybpoard, usb ports The following do not work: audio, sleep/wake,sd/card I tried some of the suggested remedies for the sleep problem, by turning off hibernation, regenerate kext cache. I think my BIOS is correct, UEFI, ROM enabled, TPM off, SATA in AHCI. I might have more trouble by using a EFI pack for a different kind of laptop, but I'd appreciate any suggestion. debug_22077.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGod Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 I had great success with the E7440 bootpack + latest Clover boot package. All major features work, except the SD card. Thanks again for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
