Unable to find base image record in OpenCore menu #6

Closed fabiandiez closed 2 years ago

Hi,

I am unable to find the base image record in the OpenCore menu. After startup, I am only able to see a "Windows" options.

Using different EFI setups, I was able to boot into macOS earlier, but was trying to use this repo as it seems up-to-date and well maintained.

On my installation media, I created the com.apple.recovery.boot containing the BaseSystem.chunklist as well as the BaseSystem.dmg. I also tried using both the Monterey and the HeliPad EFI configurations, but had no luck using either.

Any ideas why this might be happening? Any help would be appreciated.

Notes: I've formatted my USB drive using https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/installer-guide/winblows-install.html#rufus-method, as it is too big to be formatted by diskutil, but I am assuming this does not make a difference since it worked earlier with different EFI setups. I have used the macrecovery utility provided by OpenCore to option the base image, using python macrecovery.py -b Mac-E43C1C25D4880AD6 -m 00000000000000000 download (Monterey).

Hi, You need to press the space bar in the OpenCore menu to see the drive.
