  1. Alright kids, this is shitty.
  2. Call your parents and tell them you love them, because we're going for a fucked up ride
  3. and we might not come back alive...

  11. *For this, we can just use the El Capitan Auto Installer bash file that I wrote.
  12. It will guide you through all the necessary steps.
  13. *After the installer is created, boot into it and install your OS X.
  14. *Use the flash drive (with clover installed) to boot the OS X hard drive.
  15. *Install Clover onto the OS X hard drive, but instead of installing directly to
  16. the boot0af in MBR, select the options "Install for UEFI booting only" and
  17. "Install Clover in the ESP". Also make sure the "RC Scripts" are installed.
  18. *Mount the EFI partition of the OS X disk and copy your config.plist and kexts
  19. to the appropriate locations. They are the same as they were for the USB installer
  20. but located on this partition instead of in an "EFI" folder.
  21. *Ensure you have the appropriate boot flags and etc for your system and update your
  22. nVidia drivers if you are using a series 9 (or maxwell arch) card.
  23. *Now your OS X part is done.

  29. ## Completed on an existing Windows System (I used Windows 7 Ultimate Pro 64bit) ##
  30. ## The Clover installation requires an existing Mac OS X System ##
  31. ## At this point, you can use the one you created in the first section ##

  37. *We need to create a UEFI bootable Windows 10 flash drive with Clover installed. It's
  38. quite a ride.
  39. *Download Rufus if you don't already have it: https://rufus.akeo.ie/
  40. *Create the installer on your 8+GB USB Flash Drive in Rufus using the following settings:
  41. + Device - Your USB Drive
  42. + Partition Scheme - GPT parition scheme for UEFI computer
  43. + File System - FAT32
  44. + Cluster Size - 4096 Bytes (or whatever is default)
  45. + New Volume Label - Will be set by your Win10 iso file
  46. + Check bad blocks - Unchecked
  47. + Quick Format - Checked
  48. + Create bootable disk using - ISO Image (Select your Win10 iso file)
  49. + Create extended label and... - Checked
  50. *Hit start and wait for it to complete
  51. *Navigate to your USB drive and copy bootx64.efi from /efi/boot/ into /efi/microsoft/boot/
  52. *Rename the copied file to "bootmgfw.efi" and rename "cdboot.efi" to "cdboot.bak"
  53. *Directory structure of the flash drive should look like this:
  54. + Win10USB
  55. |-+ efi
  56. |-+ boot
  57. |-- bootx64.efi
  58. |-+ microsoft
  59. |-+ boot
  60. |-- bootmgfw.efi
  61. |-- cdboot.bak

  63. ## Key ##
  64. + = Folder
  65. - = File
  66. *There will be other files/folders there, but those are the ones we are focusing on
  67.

  71.  
  72. *Run your clover installer on the Win10 USB drive and select these options:
  73. - Install for UEFI booting only
  74. - Install Clover in the ESP (should auto check after the first option is selected)
  75. In the Drives64UEFI Section:
  76. - EmuVariableUefi-64
  77. - OsxAptioFix2Drv-64
  78. - PartitionDxe-64
  79. *I did not need to put a new config plist or any kexts into the EFI partition of the USB
  80.

  85. *In BIOS, make sure you turn off the SATA controllers for all hard drives except
  86. for the one you intend to install Windows 10 on. Microsoft is still super picky
  87. about this and the install will fail otherwise.
  88. *Get to your BIOS boot menu and select your USB drive's UEFI boot option
  89. *When it loads the clover screen, the last option (or one of them) should be something like
  90. "Boot Microsoft EFI boot menu from..." - This is the one you need
  91. *If all goes well, it will load the installer, and you can install Windows 10 as normal
  92. *When it's done installing, let it reboot and do it's whole "Hi" thing
  93. *Install your drivers/updates etc, reboot, enable all drives in BIOS, and set your Mac OS X
  94. drive as your primary. In my boot order screen is was listed as "UEFI OS (P1 blah blah hd stuff)"
  95. You want the UEFI one for sure
  96. *Now you're ready to rock, I would make sure to install clover on another hard drive, or another USB
  97. drive in the unfortunate event of a failure of your main drive or corruption of your UEFI partition
  98. Then you've got a way to boot into the OS still, just in case.
