Last few years I was always handling Hacktintosh problems myself (using all knowledge from the internet), but I'm stuck and I need your help/instructions.
My config: • Intel Core i5 4670K Boxed • Gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3 o Realtek ALC892 audio chip • SSD Intenso 2.5" 120GB • Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 570 4GD5
Last week I decided to update from Catalina 10.15.0 to 10.15.1. Then I got the famous black screen (but still was able to login via Teamviewer) so I tried everything to fix it (with or without whatevergreen/Lilu different versions and combinations, using several boot args etc.). Nothing worked, so I decided to remove my SSD, hook it up to a real Mac, and format that thing to APFS removing everything on it to have a fresh start.
Now, I created fresh USB sticks with Catalina 10.15.1 using Clover_v2.5k_r5098.pkg. Placed kext files in the mounted EFI, folder ‘Other’.
I unplugged every USB (except mouse and keyboard) and all SATA and Windows SSD drives.
I resetted my Cmos (bios) removing the battery and load optimal defaults and configured it same as I did before when it was working. Now when I try to boot from the prepared USB it boots into clover, but the entries are empty, so no USB to select to enter the installation process. What am I doing wrong?
I also prepared a USB with an older clover version, but that doesn’t do anything at all (r5078).
I hope the community is still very much active and hopefully together we can solve this. 🦾🧠
