Switch to OpenCore from Clover

Open TheNightmanCodeth opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

I took some time to update the instructions and the files in the repo to reflect the necessary changes to use OpenCore for better compatibility with Catalina.

I can't get OpenCore to recognize any keyboard input with this config. I tried disabling KeySupport in config.plist, tried enabling it and removing UsbKbDxe.efi, none of it worked.

@Stereo8 I'm not sure what the problem could be. I just finished following this README step by step, in case I left something out, and it's working fine for me. Are you using a T430? Does it work with Clover? I would recommend sticking with Clover version until OC comes out of beta. UsbKbDxe.efi will not affect keyboard input. Do you mean keyboard input on the OC screen or in Mac OS? You need to press the number of the system you are wishing to boot, not arrow keys.

@TheNightmanCodeth, awesome! I will try it out when I get back from my autumn retreat. If most users should wait with using OpenCore, I think it makes sense to keep Clover alongside OpenCore in the README.md. I shall see to that, before merging.

What about CPU power management? I see you're using NullCPUPowerManagement.kext here, I'd fix that before merging this
