#CLOVER EFI VOLUMES FILE HOW TO#
Most newer computers will pick up Clover automatically, but if it doesn't appear as a bootable selection in your BIOS here's how to correct it.
If you're able to boot into CLOVER, you can skip the next section and move onto Display Configuration. You may need to go into your BIOS and set Clover first in your boot order. Rename the file NAME.BIN to SLIC.That's it! Unmount your USB stick in Finder, and reboot without it. If you use loader to activate Windows 7, you can inject SLIC table using Clover instead.
#CLOVER EFI VOLUMES FILE INSTALL#
IMPORTANT: Windows installer formats and renumbers all partitions after the destination one, because it creates a reserved partition, so if you will install Linux, do it after installing Windows, or install Windows in the last partition. You can use gParted from a Linux live CD. įor Windows 8 the usual steps are enough, but it can't be an "AIO" (all in one) image, x86 and 圆4 (with efi\boot\bootia32.efi), it must be 圆4 only (with efi\boot\boot圆4.efi).īefore installing Windows you need to change the partition format to NTFS. The file bootmgfw.efi is in the folder \1\Windows\Boot\EFI\ inside the file \sources\install.wim from DVD. Sudo newfs_msdos -v EFI -F 32 /dev/diskXs1Ĭopy all files from the image (DVD) to the pen drive.įor Windows 7 you need to copy the folder efi\microsoft\boot to efi\boot (one level up), copy the file bootmgfw.efi to that folder and rename it to boot圆4.efi Run the following commands in terminal, replacing X by the HD number. Start the system using the pen drive to test UEFI boot. After installing, create the folder EFI/BOOT in the pen drive and copy the file EFI/CLOVER/CLOVERX64.efi to EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi Depending on BIOS you may need OsxLowMemFix (Insyde H2O), EmuVariableUefi (Phoenix UEFI) or OsxAptioFixDrv (all other).ĭo not select the option "install for UEFI motherboards", it only works if the pen drive is partitioned in GUID. You need at least the drivers FSInject, OsxFatBinaryDrv and VboxHfs (or HFSPlus ) in the folder /EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI (installed by default). If you have Windows pre-installed do not format the EFI partition (newfs_msdos), just mount it (mount_msdos).įormat a pen drive as FAT32 and install Clover in it.
#CLOVER EFI VOLUMES FILE MAC OS#
IMPORTANT: to install Windows 7/8 in UEFI mode, the partition table must be pure GPT, it can't be hybrid MBR like used in old BIOS mode, so when you create the partitions in Disk Utility, do NOT change the Windows partition to MS-DOS (FAT), keep all partitions as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), you will change the other partition(s) format later. You don't have to boot the OS X installer in UEFI mode, it's only needed in the following step, to install Clover. You can make an installer or download one from my signature. Notice that when this option is enabled, it shows UEFI before the drive name. Your BIOS must have the option UEFI Boot and it must be enabled in order to install operating systems in UEFI mode.
