Won't get the Clover boot menu #16

Closed fredericblaison closed 5 years ago

fredericblaison commented 5 years ago

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Follow onscreen instruction with success until step 6
  2. After restarted up the WM, I'm getting the UEFI interactive shell interface
  3. Mapping table displays FS1 and FS0 but I'm not able to find how to switch into Clover boot menu

Expected behavior Start macOS in the Clover boot menu

Additional context Tried fs1: and fs0: where I enter \EFI\Boot\Bootx64.efi No luck.

I remember seeing this issue in the past. Try to reboot (to ensure no image is mounted), delete the clover ISO image (e.g. running make clean), recreate it (make clover) and check the log file (~/Library/Logs/runMojaveVirtualbox.log) in case it still doesn't work. Make also sure that the VM really boots from the Clover ISO image.

Thanks much Alexander but in which directory I should run make ?

Let me see it.

I believe that I have an issue with xz which is installed but not linked in /usr/local due to macOS SIP

/Applications/RunMojaveVirtualbox.app/Contents/Resources/runMojaveVirtualbox.sh: line 213: xz: command not found
tar: Error opening archive: Failed to open 'clover.tar'

I'm trying running brew link xz then I rebuild from scratch (step 1) after erased everything.

Fixed

Issue On macOS SIERRA or sup, xy can be installed but not properly linked making Clover.tar to fail on decompression.

Workaround Prerequis

Steps

  1. Install xy with Brew if not installed by the script
  2. Run $ brew link xz
  3. Delete previous Mojave VM from VirtualBox (Delete All Files)
  4. Empty \tmp or reboot computer
  5. Re start from step 1

/usr/local is not protected by SIP. I added another additional brew link xz to the setup script. Hope this would fix the issue for others. Thanks.

fredericblaison commented 5 years ago

Until I'm wrong, since SIERRA, /usr/local permissions can't no longer be modified with chown. I believe it is due on new SIP policies (?). It makes necessary to create a subfolder in /usr/local prior to be able to install and set any file with appropriate permissions or links; one of the reason why Brew can get some issues.

AlexanderWillner commented 5 years ago

True, but brew is using /usr/local/Homebrew that is owned by you. Afaik brew is working on 10.11-10.14 (and even on 10.5–10.10).

Just tried this today and I’m getting the same issue

Ps: xz already linked

AlexanderWillner commented 5 years ago

Can you provide the output of the log file?

AlexanderWillner commented 5 years ago

I removed clover from the setup. So might be fixed now.
