    Not (yet) using WhateverGreen, am I missing out big time?

    Hi all, I have a pretty basic EFI folder, everything seems to be working ok on my desktop and I just read this: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/an-idiots-guide-to-lilu-and-its-plug-ins.260063/ Looks like most people are using this plugin (whatevergreen) and I wonder if I should use it (even...

    Help me understanding boot times

    Hi there, Since upgrading my desktop Hackintosh from 10.9.5 to 10.15.7 (fresh install on new SSD drive) I have noticed a slower boot time By "boot time" I mean only the part that regards the progress bar under the apple logo at startup, not the clover boot time. I'm not particularly bothered...

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    So I've searched the forum and found that "iMac14,2" was a decent candidate for Product Name, changed it in the SMBIOS settings and the computer booted correctly (Thanks both to you and @Feartech ) with the NVIDIA card working for both my monitors. I then restarted the computer and lost output...

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    ok thanks, My bad, I forgot to say that yes, when I added network drivers I also changed the Multibeast definition of my computer from iMac to MacPro5.1. So it is just a matter of re-running Multibeast and change back the definition to iMac? After all, it was working ok when it was defined as...

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    attached is a pic of the portion visible when it stops scrolling. If there is a way to scroll back up I'll be more than glad to take more (terribly blurry) pics.

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    ok sorry (and thanks!) feeling quite dumb hehe So I get it to verbose mode and it scrolls some text which ends in something like "not supported platform" then says sleep for 30 seconds and shuts off. Would it be useful to take a pic of the output? There is a bunch of stuff that disappears on top...

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    Ok so I press space and, using the arrow keys scroll down to "verbose mode" then hit enter to check its box, then scroll down, hit return and I'm taken back to the boot device selection, Catalina is still highlighted so I hit return and still get the prohibited sign and then shutdown. There must...

    Catalina: white "prohibited" sign after Clover and then self shut down.

    Hi all, I hope I'm not posting something already discussed but I've looked around and my case seems a bit different from others. I have installed a fresh 10.15.7 on an SSD drive. Then ran Multibeast and selected the standard UEFI settings plus injected NVIDIA graphics. All went well and the...

    Thanks a lot for your reply. I have updated my system info to include the graphics card which is a EVGA GT 610 do you think it will work even if not ATI/AMD? I have already a new 1TB SSD HD in place so I'm ready to go with the install from scratch . I want to follow your suggestion to go...
