flyingfishfinger Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 I've got HDMI and miniDP. Both work, but I don't know how to turn off the internal LCD (it always seems to mirror displays) until I get to an OS. Clover also mirrors to both external and internal screens, no further difference in behaviour. R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 1, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 1, 2016 sometimes there are options in the bios to choose main display Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfishfinger Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 No such luck, I know what I would be looking for in other BIOSes but this one doesn't seem to have any kind of video control options. No idea how to force the internal screen off that way, I'll go and poke the Thinkpad people and see if they have any ideas in that regard...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted December 1, 2016 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2016 After updating the files to the USB Installer and booting from it, will it detect the Internal drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfishfinger Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 Yes, it does! Very cool, some progress. Thank you! But it hangs at the same places it did when it was attached externally as far as boot progress, I'm trying to reinstall from scratch now. All drives are detected in the installer! From an educational point of view, what was in the new files you provided? EDIT: Reinstalled, but exact same behaviour results, except that the drive is now internal.

Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 1, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 1, 2016 i think there is a clover option in config plist to set your main display but its not documented too well. you would have to look in your ioreg to get the info of the connected displays.

flyingfishfinger Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 Hmm. How can I view the ioreg if I can't boot the system? Is there a way to get it in single-user mode or through the installer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 2, 2016 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2016 try typing in ioreg in single user mode or maybe installer terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfishfinger Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Here's an IODeviceTree from single user mode. What else should I grab? R ioreg.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfishfinger Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 Tried updating with the latest Clover, still the same result. Do you guys have any other ideas or suggestions? General question: If the installer can be made to boot, what is the difference between that and getting the installED OS to boot if it's running on the same hardware? Shouldn't all the Clover settings be the same? For example, if the installer works fine with my internal LCD (whether or not it's eDP), shouldn't the installed version work too if it's booted with the same Clover config?
