Tried bless on CoreServices of the "invisible" drive, tried selecting the second drive in Startup Disk (I see both volumes there).
#MOVE CLOVER EFI PARTITION ON USB DRIVE WINDOWS 10#
Same outcome: I have one bootable Windows 10 and one bootable Mojave, but I don't see the second Mojave install, even with F3. Tried resetting NVRAM, reinstalling Clover, even formatted the whole drive and started from scratch for both Windows 10 and MacOS. Now, I can boot into Clover, but I only see one of the two Volumes. The drive is internal and partitioned as: 1 Windows partition, 2 APFS partitions which show up as 2 Volumes in Disk Utility (not 2 partitions), and all appropriate EFI and Recovery partitions. Mojave installed on both MacOS partitions without any problem. The partition method works well, but doesn't allow for EFI errors. Plan B is to create a small partition, similar to recovery, as alternate boot when updates (OS, kexts, clover) run into trouble. Other drives (namely old-school 5400RPM USB 3.0 Seagate drives) work on that second machine. It got further into the boot (with adjusted EFI folder for that second hack), but still failed. Tried the drive (Samsung flash drive) on another hack and got the interdiction sign. I did have AptioMemoryFix-64, indeed, and USB are patches with SSDT.
Instead of Aptiomemory fix try AptiomemoryFix-64 Which kinda points the finger at the usb enclosures, right? sometimes it does, sometimes gets stuck on loading and most times it skips the USB / Start up disk. On further testing i found imac 2013 also has trouble booting from some USB enclosures. I mean, it worked, but sometimes doesn't. In practice i found it's a bit random and these days i try to avoid it if i can. I haven't found the solution yet to the USB boot issue, but what puzzles me is that if I have two drives with the exact same EFI folder (and I can boot into Clover from either one), shouldn't I be able to boot into MacOS from either one?īooting off usb you need to make sure you have USB patches in place.

Read the forums, I saw the posts about AptioMemoryFix, so I tried the various other drivers on the USB.
So, boot into Clover on internal boot drive, then select OS on USB. The boot sequence hangs on End Random Seed, but before the usual '++++++++' line. With F12, I can boot from the USB into Clover and select the OS on the USB. I should be able to boot from the USB drive, right? Wrong. I installed Mojave on a USB drive (for backup / rescue) and copied the entire EFI partition of my boot drive to the EFI partition on the USB drive. Mojave 10.14.4 now boots from the internal SSD. (Yes, I do expect problems on laptops, but that's not the question). I've done a few hacks so far and this never happened. I have two drives with the exact same EFI folder (and I can boot into Clover from either one), shouldn't I be able to boot into MacOS from either one?
