#How to manually create clover efi drivers
Please show your appreciation and click on the star below.On some of the last Posts in the topic GRUB4DOS for UEFI the user zammibro was talking about UEFI booting on a only Bios PC and I said it was not possible as Bios programs do not have the required code and internal drivers to boot on UEFI environment on this Post, but our friend Wonko made a very simple and clear explanation of how Clover works in order to UEFI boot on a only Bios (or CSM) PC on this Post. If you find this post helpful and are logged into the web interface, If things are working, then I would leave as is, then when the time isĬheers Malcolm °¿° SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) Installed a SSD and pre configured so I could use the time machine I did a time machine backup of MacOS (was HDD) and then So thats whyĮither way it's a reinstall since you will need a /boot partition in I examined the TW Bootloader with Yast and by default it only set up asīooting from root and not MBR which is why the MacOSX Clover cannotĪccess it as it can only access EXT2 and 4 and not BTRFS. Work but it won't boot TW even if I force it to Legacy mode. So I am now using a bootloader called Enoch which is derived fromĬhameleon and it is non-efi legacy and it boots both MacOSX and TW justįine but I'd rather have EFI booting at least from the MacOSX which does Not have to reinstall Linux on all them them.

I'm guessing your TW has an EFI boot partition. My question now is can I add the MBR boot without breaking the install? I examined the TW Bootloader with Yast and by default it only set up as booting from root and not MBR which is why the MacOSX Clover cannot access it as it can only access EXT2 and 4 and not BTRFS. So I am now using a bootloader called Enoch which is derived from Chameleon and it is non-efi legacy and it boots both MacOSX and TW just fine but I'd rather have EFI booting at least from the MacOSX which does work but it won't boot TW even if I force it to Legacy mode.
