Welp, opencore branch just answered my question. @hieplpvip if I install this to my device this week, will you be available for immediate feedback? I'd love to help test!
I haven't updated the scripts, so you need to install it manually. Please read everything inside this guide before proceeding. Always have Clover installed on some USB as backup.
Currently, my EFI folder looks like this:
ACPI files can be generated by running ./make_acpi.sh
For kexts, copy all inside downloads/clover_kexts
. I don't think LiluFriend is needed with OpenCore so I remove it.
For drivers, you'll know where to get them after reading the guide above.
config.plist
is at src/config_parts/opencore.plist
. You need to change:
ACPI\Add
PlatformInfo
Kernel\Add
(if you don't use exactly the same kexts as me)If you boot OpenCore but instead it boots into BIOS, move everything inside EFI folder except BOOT/bootx64.efi
and OC
and reboot. Now OpenCore should boot. Move everything back.
(I know this sounds weird but it worked for me)
@hieplpvip Thanks for the info. I'll test it later in the week when I have a proper macOS device.
@hieplpvip Thanks for all your work with ASUS laptops :) Please review these commits. I added multiboot support for your UX410 and few fixes like removing deprecated XHC and dGPU ACPI add/patches, as well as some of the patches I use for my X510UA(S510) and the config that I use with Platforminfo removed. https://github.com/whatnameisit/ASUS-ZENBOOK-HACKINTOSH/commits/opencore Good night!
@whatnameisit I don't think it's a good idea to boot Windows using OpenCore since OpenCore always injects SMBIOS, which makes Windows think it's running on a real Macbook and can cause troubles with Windows license. Instead, I use rEFInd. I can share my rEFInd folder if you like.
I haven't looked check your commits thoroughly. My main concern now is how this repo should be maintained. Currently, this repo provides prebuilt configs and scripts for automatic installation. However, it doesn't seem to be a good approach in the long term. I can't test everything in this repo. The scripts are kinda inflexible and limited. For example, I really want to have each ACPI patch in its own SSDT file, but I have to put everything in one file because current scripts don't allow me to do that. I can modify the scripts but that doesn't solve the root of the problem. Bash is very limited compared to high-level languages, so I'm thinking about developing an application to replace those scripts, but it'll will take time and I don't know if it's worth it. I want to know what you guys think.
so, it works on UX430UA, thanks to @hieplpvip
@hieplpvip I have no problem booting into Windows, but that I guess is because I use a KMS license. I forgot and haven't thought about Windows license issues in many months... About maintaining this repo, I think it's fine if you provide the basic EFI structure for Clover as you currently do with scripts(and maybe OpenCore in the near future?). You can't always accept and fix issues on machines you don't have. End users need to study their machines and hacks.
@hieplpvip Hi, I have tried many time, doing Opencore by my-self and doing it your ways. few things i noticed that i would like point out on this:
hieplpvip. -- THANK YOU so much for all your hard work! I am SOOO Close. The only thing on opencore I have left to configure is backlight. Everything else is working with OpenCore on 10.15.5. If I put up a google drive link of my EFI would you mind taking a peel? Thank you
EDIT: Bios 311 did the trick - everything is up and running

Hey! I’d love to see this solution using rEFInd, I am having a really hard time getting OpenCore to even start without the bootable usb. No matter WHAT I try... I always boot to windows unless I use my USB. I’ve got everything working on 10.15.5 — and I really want to set up a proper dual boot like I used to have on Clover. (I’ve changed orders in bios, selected paths, used EasyUEFI on windows, doesn’t matter... always boots to windows. I’m lost to be honest.) any help would be amazing! I’m on Bios 311 on the Ux330UAK model if that helps.
I have an ASUS UX430UN. Can anyone share a running opencore efi?

hey! Yes:
Not necessarily a problem, but is there a way to integrate this into OpenCore in the event that macOS 10.16 breaks everything we know and love about Clover/Kexts?
