Shouldn’t it be NetworkInterfaces.plist in Part 2: Network Configuration? I see a lot of garbage in there from trying different SMBIOS etc. I’m assuming thats what you want to clear and start fresh.
You can clear out all Network plists if you want.
Wouldn’t it be better to enter MLB and ROM in RT-Variables?
If I’m right, Clover takes the ROM from the last digits of SmUUID if it’s not specified in RT-Variables and MLB from BoardSerial Number…
No. That is defunct in Clover for months.
I generated my mlb and rom values with machack and am confused on where to put them on the smbios page in clover configurator. I dragged the plist onto machack and it put values in. Was this the wrong thing to do as I still get the contact apple message with the code for FaceTime and iMessages. If so could you please specify where to put what from machack into clover configurator.
Thanks and appreciate your guides!!
Please read the guide and also call them.
Hi and thanks for these valuable guides,
When I try to Open the CreateRecoveryHDUpdater.command File, I get a message (after google translation from french) “the file « createRecoveryHDUpdater.command »could not be executed because you do not have the necessary access privileges. To view or change your permissions , select the file in the Finder and choose File> Get Info.”
I’m under 10.10.2.
Could you help please ?
In advance thanks for your time.
Hi Rampegdev,
do you have an idea for my question in the post above ?
Thanks,
Ga-z97x-ud5h-bk
Intel 4970k
GTX 970
OS: Mac OS 10.10.2
Installation: Clover
DMG: from Rampage
Hi, in Part 1C, step 4 it says:
“Locate the following section:
Fixes…”
My config.plist does not have that section. How should I proceed, do I have to create it?
Thanks
With this code, the system loading is veeery long time:
FixLAN_2000
replace on and delete NetworkInterfaces.plist in “/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/” folder
…loading slider is in the middle of apple stub
And that within 10 minutes
That normal?
It seems stopped in the middle
MB is R4E.
To these actions it was ok
I’m followed this guide
http://www.rampagedev.com/?page_id=288
I brought everything back as it was
I loaded into the system quickly
App Store now works
thank
Enjoy!
I was unable to make the Recovery HD. Here is a image of the error.

Also AppleMacHack won’t open. Just crashes.
There might be something wrong with your Install App. Also if you install with Clover this is not needed. 🙂
I can reinstall to get the RecoveryHDD but I use Chameleon (Enoch). Clover doesn’t work for me. What about the AppleMacHack application?
Re-download the install app and try this again.
I now have Recovery partition but still can’t open the AppleMacHack app. Submitted a crash log to the developer. Is there another way to generate the info needed without a real Mac?
The method you are trying to do is unsupported by us. Please see the developer for help with there app.
Hello. I finally got some values generated and I’ve loaded them using Clover but I still get the error, “You cannot sign in to iCloud because there was a problem verifying the identity of this Mac. Try restarting your Mac and signing in again.”
