Automator says USB is patched despite errors (install-setvars failed, SOLVED) #1

Closed Mennaruuk closed 3 years ago

Mennaruuk commented 3 years ago

I've been having issues manually patching my USB drive, mainly with install-setvars, so I resorted to using the Automator. (By the way, it's awesome, and I hope one day it is actually implemented in barrykn's.) I was pleasantly surprised when it informed me that the USB flash drive was successfully patched. However, when I restarted and held the Option button, I couldn't find EFI Boot, meaning there was an error setting up setvars. But Automator didn't mention this error.

Is there a way to have Automator spit out some kind of log or notify the user that an error has occurred? For example, it can detect if the log says "install-setvars cannot continue" so it spits out that error, or something like that.

One other feature suggestion is having a progress bar for createinstallmedia. I did see it working behind the scenes in Activity Monitor, but having some kind of indicator that it's ongoing would be a nice GUI touch.

Downloading and running the micropatcherautomator.sh file will do the "verbose" version of the automation process. Another thing to try is redonwnloading the micropatcher, then rerunning the Automator.

I also just noticed the suggestion for a progress bar for createinstallmedia. I would really like to have one, but I haven't managed to get one to work. If you have any suggestions on how to do it, please let me know. And has your issue with install-setvars been resolved?

I wish I knew some coding, but I know absolutely nothing, I probably shouldn’t even be on GitHub 😅 Even TINU, which is essentially a GUI to create bootable disks, doesn’t have a progress bar. 2EB87B4D-485F-4BDB-99CB-DE52F9FB4C1B

And yes, I got the issue resolved!!!

Nice! I plan on closing this issue soon, but I'd like to know what you did to solve it if you have time. That way if someone has a similar issue I can assist them in the future

Here is the solution that worked for me.
