Hello, Jake Lo,

 

I am a little bit frustrated, because each and every advice or hint does not lead to a successful boot of Catatlina Beta 9 on my Latitude E6440 (German Keyboard).

 

The verbose installation process gets stuck all the time.

 

I have got a USB Stick that is able to boot and install Mojave, so after several days of experimenting with different kexts, combination of kexts etc, I am still unable to install Catalina Beta 9.

 

Even with the same Clover config and kexts, I am not able to start into the installation process.

Install Clover with this version, and install with below settings

  • Clover for UEFI booting only
  • Install Clover in the ESP
  • UEFI Drivers\Recommended drivers
    •  AudioDxe
    • DataHubDxe
    • FSInject
    • ApfsDriverLoader
    • AptioMemoryFix
    • HFSPlus
  • Additonal drivers
    • PartitionDxe
  • Themes (optional)

BIOS should be at minimum set to:

  • UEFI enabled
  • AHCI enabled
  • Legacy Option ROMS enabled
  • Secure boot disable

Hello Jake Lo,

 

at least I can confirm all BIOS settings according your recommendation above.

 

I am going to try out your recommendations concerning CLOVER as mentioned above and I will post the result as soon as available.

 

Question: Is it intended to NOT install SMCHelper in UEFI Drivers\Recommended drivers?

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Heinz
