  1. Eureka! It's all working well now! Clover boots locally to OSX, audio works. The problem seems to be that I was entering my Apple ID during the install process and choosing to use apple's vault tech, which was locking up the internal drive somehow. Does that mean I cannot use my apple id? This time, I did not enter it during install. All works well. Also, should I not use this 'vault' tech? Or location services? Not really sure what was causing the drive to lock but that worked. Any suggestions on using apple id and choosing their services?
  2. I might just do that! Let me look into what you wrote. Thanks,
  3. Now it is booting into clover locally on the Macintosh SSD. This is a major good step. Unfortunately, I am only given two options: - Boot Mac OSX from Recovery HD - Boot Recovery from Recovery HD Again, it seems that booting OSX from the local HD has disappeared At least now it boots into clover locally... without the USB disk needing to be plugged in any suggestions? Thanks
  4. Well, once again I started off from the beginning and followed all the latest instructions. The same thing is happening where, upon reboot, the local Macintosh SSD is not shown as a boot option for OSX anymore. It disappears from the menu. I mounted the EFI folder with the new EFI mounter and everything. Any suggestions? Thanks!
  5. Also, could you please direct me to which wifi/bluetooth card I should purchase for this machine to have working wifi under OSX? Also, the audio does not work. Could use coaching around that. Thanks!
  6. you wrote: Verify Bios is set to AHCI and you have HFSPlus.efi in Clover/drivers64UEFI. Sounds like you don't have the EFI folder added to the EFI partition. Try mounting it and add the folder when you're successful booting back in. Alternatively, you could mount the drive on to another OS X system with an USB to Sata adapter. Then mount the EFI partition and add the folder. I have HFSPlus-64.efi in Clover/drivers64UEFI Is this ok? Also, I am set up for a teamviewer session. Would you have time this morning? Thank you,
  7. OOOh, I see you added an EFI Mounter in the guide. Will this help me? How does it work? Thank you,
  8. Perhaps there is a newer version of Clover Config that I could access? Is there? Thanks
  9. The EFI Folder I created was the generic folder merged with my particular model number, then replaced the EFI folder with this created EFI folder. One thing, when I downloaded the generic EFI folder and the one specific to my model and merged, there wasn't an option to merge the two. I just copied the documents from my specific model's downloaded EFI folder and put them into the generic efi folder then renamed to EFI. This was confusing that there was not a merge option, as the guide was saying to do. I thought I had placed my EFI folder in the correct place, replacing the one on my internal drive. Did I do that correctly? Thanks,
  10. OK, good suggestion. I went in to the bios and added a UEFI boot option for Clover and what seems to be happening is that it does not see clover on the Mac SSD. I hit F2/Settings/Boot Sequence I add Boot Option Boot Option Name: Clover File System List: I leave that section as is (correct?) doesn't look as if I can change that anyway. File Name: takes me to EFI Boot Selection menu. Under file system: I choose FS0 Directories says EFI and I click on it. Now directory says only 'APPLE'. There is no Clover. That's what's happening when I remove the USB disk. When I add the USB disk, FS0 becomes the USB disk and I indeed see a clover folder and app in there. I know I did install clover locally. Again, now when I boot into the USB disk's clover, I no longer see an option in the menu to boot from my local Mac SSD. It disappeared. This is a loop I am in. I always get to this same problem point. I have ironed out all the other issues (except things like the audio wasn't working, which I will work on when I can once again boot into the local SSD OSX) So I am not sure why clover has disappeared from the internal SSD or why the internal drive is not being shown as a boot option when I boot through clover on the USB disk. Suggestions? Thank you!
  11. Thanks, guys. I am new at this, but determined to learn and get it right. I got it to boot by hitting F12. When the boot menu comes up, I was wrongly choosing my USB drive in the Legacy Boot list. Instead, I arrowed down to the UEFI BOOT: option and clicked the one option it was showing me, which has my USB drive's name attached to it. Then it starts to boot from clover, which is installed on the USB drive. My problem now is a repeated one I have been having. After installing clover, post install of El Capitan, to my Mac SSD, when I reboot it will not boot from the internal drive, if I take out the USB disk. If I remove the USB boot disk I created and reboot the computer, I get: No Bootable Devices- Strike F1, Press F2..., Press F5... It will only boot into clover if I have the USB Boot Disk plugged in. BUT even stranger is that after a few reboots, the option within clover (booted from USB, not internal drive for some reason) to boot into OSX on my internal drive is gone. It does not appear in the Clover boot menu anymore. The only options that appear are: - Boot Mac OSX from Install OSX El Capitan (USB drive) - Boot Mac OSX from Recovery HD - Boot Recovery from Recovery HD I have started the whole installation process over several times in order to iron out the wrinkles and get it right. I start by erasing the internal hard drive, as suggested. Then I go through all the steps. I always seem to end up losing the option in Clover to boot into the local HD with Mac OSX and also I end up only being able to boot into clover if I have the USB disk plugged in. Any troubleshooting tips? Thank you!
  12. Any suggestions of what is causing this problem? The first error I get is when copying kexts from /EFI/Clover/Kexts/Other/LE to /Library/Extensions of Macintosh SSD after pasting them into /Library/Extensions, I get a system warning saying "System Extension cannot be used. The system extension "/Library/Extensions/AppleHDA_IDT.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update. I got the same warning now for "Library/Extensions/DisableTurboBoostBattery.kext" Any suggestions? Thank you so much for hanging in there with me throughout this process!
  13. As I was doing this: 7. Repair permission and rebuild cache. Run command from terminal sudo chmod -Rf 755 /L*/E* sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /L*/E* sudo chmod -Rf 755 /S*/L*/E* sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /S*/L*/E* sudo touch -f /L*/E* sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E* sudo kextcache -Boot -U / I got the following error: MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /L*/E* MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo chmod -Rf 755 /S*/L*/E* MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo chown -Rf 0:0 /S*/L*/E* MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo touch -f /L*/E* MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo touch -f /S*/L*/E* MacBook-Air:~ edgar$ sudo kextcache -Boot -U / rebuilding //System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel kext file:///Library/Extensions/DisableTurboBoostBattery.kext/ is in hash exception list, allowing to load kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67030 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA2A for kext AppleHDA_IDT.kext File at path '/System/Library/PrelinkedKernels/prelinkedkernel' changed, cannot be used Child process /usr/sbin/kextcache[1094] exited with status 77.
