Ok, looks like you do have CS.

 

1) From terminal, enter diskutil list. Note the virtual drive in red.

  diskutil list

  /dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

     #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER

     0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *256.1 GB   disk0

     1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk0s1

     2:          Apple_CoreStorage Macintosh SSD           63.5 GB    disk0s2

     3:                 Apple_Boot Recovery HD             650.0 MB   disk0s3

  /dev/disk1 (internal, virtual):

     #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER

     0:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh SSD          +63.1 GB    disk1

                                   Logical Volume on disk0s2

                                   75DADC16-4B7F-4C7D-9660-10A1C2A9FC02

                                   Unencrypted

 

2) From terminal, run diskutil cs revert /dev/disk1 

 

3) Reboot with USB Installer and select the Installed drive

4) Install Clover 

5) Replace the Clover files in /EFI/Clover from USB installer

6) Reboot without USB

Nice!!!!!

It worked!!!!!

Thanks alot!

 

I have two more questions, i don't know if i have to open new topic:

  • it's possible to automatically choose when booting to clover the option to go directly to the OS without me having to choose?
  • All the components in the Dell works except the microphone, the speakers work great and in the system preferences - Sound - Output i can see the internal speakers but when i go to the input nothing shows up. Is there any fix for this?

Once again, thanks for your help!

 

Cheers!

           Lauch Config.plist with Clover Cofigurator. Next to Boot tab, change the Default Boot Volume to exactly the name of your OS X drive name (case sensitive)

           Below it, change the Timeout to 1. This gives you a little time to select other drive to boot in case you want to or access Options in case you have boot issue.

Thanks Jake, the boot volume is now automatically chosen! thanks!
 
for the microphone, i've downloaded the kext but i don't know where to put it, i put it in the EFI/CLOVER/Kexts/Other/LE where i have this:

Or i put it in the /Library/Extentions where i have this:

Doi have to run any command like those from post-installation (step 8)?
 
Thanks once again Jake!

I don't believe BCM5722D LAN kext applies to the E Series...

 

Kexts placed in the EFI/CLOVER folder are injected at startup. Once you're happy you've got the right kexts, move them to /L/E from where they can be cached, which improves startup time.

Actually a lot of the  E5xxx series have Broadcom rather than Intel Ethernet.

 

@absint0o,

You need to remove AppleHDAIDT from /L/E.

Make a backup of AppleHDA.kext in /S/L/E

Install Wern's AppleHDA to /S/L/E

Change DSDT layout-id to 0 (use MacIASL.app)

Fix permission and rebuild cache

Hi there,

i've downloaded the kext from the zip called AppleHDA.kext_11.10.4.zip and put it in the /library/extensions, then, i ran those commands from the step 8 in the post installation section and then rebooted, then the sound stop working and disapeared from the devices output and the mic still not showing up in the devices input.

 

 

EDIT: Jake, i will try your method than report here!

i've done the first three steps you say, but in the MacIASL i found this:

 

post-97443-0-80719800-1477508736_thumb.png

 

what thing do i have to change to 0? i literaly change the string "layout-id" to a 0?

 

i have to compile  or patch after changing to 0 or i just need to save and exit?

 

i have to delete the AppleHDA.kext from the EFI/CLOVER/Kexts/Other to?

 

Thanks once again
