Hi,
I've installed HS from scratch on my system. I had previously a working hackintosh, on which, I changed the GPU to GTX 1060, and added an additional SSD. My previous hackintosh had a build number that did not match with any of the available Nvidia webdrivers. Without updating the macOS, I force-installed the webdrivers which ruined the macOS installation. Therefore, I started from scratch.
So now, my PC has:
- Core i3-3220
- Gigabyte H61M-s
- Evo 860 500 GB
- ZOTAC GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5X
I made a 40 GB partition on the SSD to install macOS on. After the installation, I ran MultiBeast. Then, I updated Clover Bootloader to v2.5k_r5096, which is probably the latest, as of now.
(Problem #1)One problem that I have been facing since the beginning is that the Clover bootloader installed on the SSD can't see any partitions. It's blank, because of which, I can't boot into macOS with it. Therefore, I have still been using the Clover Bootloader present on the USB that I had made for installation, and it sees all the partitions. I first copied the /Volumes/EFI/EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI/apfs.efi from the USB to the SSD, but it didn't make any change. Then, I copied the whole EFI folder from the USB, and pasted it into the EFI partition of the SSD, making it merge with the existing one. But, I still can't see any partitions when I boot into Clover installed on the SSD. When booted into the Clover installed on the installation USB, I can see all the partitions.
(Problem #2)Now, coming back to the webdriver problem, after updating the Clover Bootloader (installed on the SSD), I installed the macOS security update, which updated it to the latest build of HS, 17G8037. I enabled SIP, added Lilu and WhateverGreen, and continued with the installation of the latest WebDriver 387.10.10.10.40.131. After reboot, though the webdriver was installed and I could see its icon in menu bar, I'm still stuck at 1280x1080, "NVIDIA Chip Model 5 MB", and super glitchy UI animations. I've tried many different solutions but have been unable to fix the problem. BIOS settings seem to be fine, too.
Below is my EFI folder both from the SSD and the installation USB. (I also have an EFI backup from the SSD before I merged the USB's EFI into it, which I could upload, if required.)
EFI (from SSD with macOS installed)
EFI (from macOS installation USB)
Could it be because I'm using the USB's bootloader, the changes I'm making to the SSD's EFI folder (such as adding Lilu and WhateverGreen) are being useless? If so, how do I make the SSD's Clover Bootloader show/read the partitions, so that I can start using it instead of the USB?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
