Add Efi Filesystem Stuff For Mac 4,2/5 954 votes

My problem now is that I installed Windows using my Mac EFI graphics card that came with the computer (Radeon HD 5870), but I want to use my non-Mac EFI graphics card (GTX 970) and if I put that into my Mac and do the Terminal command to restart into Windows I just get a black screen. It's hard to understand what do you need exactly, who writes where. When OS starts the UEFI is already gone. If you need to write from UEFI to your FS then the answer is 'Yes' with 1 limitation: the FS has to be FAT32 which is natively supported by UEFI; If you have NTFS for example, as for open source, there is read-only NTFS drivers only for UEFI, as far as I know.

When High Sierra is being installed it converts the file system on the boot drive over to the new Apple File System (APFS). Therefore, if you plan to install High Sierra on a SSD or NVME you will be automatically converted from HFS to APFS, while those who are using spinning disk drives will remain on HFS as APFS is designed only for fast solid storage drives. APFS can be used on a hackintosh, but it requires some files to be added to the EFI partition before High Sierra is installedto boot.

Do I have to use APFS?

Since APFS isn’t really designed for Hackintoshers in mind that can lead to problems down the line. If you do not want to use the new Apple File System you can read about how and why to opt out of it here before installing High Sierra here:

I was able to get APFS working without noticing any immediate side affects other than the fact that booting and waking feels a little slower. There may be issues in the future, because as hackintoshers we don’t have the custom firmware that Apple devices use to handle errors and stuff.

When you update or install High Sierra the normal way, all SSD and NVME drives are converted to the APFS. However, without the necessary files in your boot partition you wont be able to boot a APFS converted drive on a hackintosh. For those of you who want to be early adapters as well as those who just want to try it out for the time being I wrote this for you:

Enabling APFS Booting

  1. Download APFS.efi
  2. Mount the EFI Partition of your Boot Device
  3. Place APFS.efi in EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI
  4. You now should be able to boot a APFS drive after installing High Sierra

Note: These .efi files will cause a black screen with text to flash momentarily before you enter the Clover Menu on boot.

Note: If you ever want to fresh install macOS High Sierra on a drive only the partition macOS is being installed on will be converted over to APFS. Do not format your entire drive as APFS, because you wont be able to access the EFI Partition for hackintoshing with the current EFI mounters available. You still want to format the entire drives partition table as GUID.

Apple File System (APFS)Apple File System (APFS), the default file system for Mac computers using macOS 10.13 or later, features strong encryption, space sharing, snapshots, fast directory sizing, and improved file system fundamentals. While APFS is optimized for the Flash/SSD storage used in recent Mac computers, it can also be used with older systems with traditional hard disk drives (HDD) and external, direct-attached storage.

MacOS 10.13 or later supports APFS for both bootable and data volumes.APFS allocates disk space within a container on demand. The disk’s free space is shared and can be allocated to any of the individual volumes in the container as needed. If desired, you can specify reserve and quota sizes for each volume. Each volume uses only part of the overall container, so the available space is the total size of the container, minus the size of all the volumes in the container.Choose one of the following APFS formats for Mac computers using macOS 10.13 or later.APFS: Uses the APFS format.APFS (Encrypted): Uses the APFS format and encrypts the volume.APFS (Case-sensitive): Uses the APFS format and is case-sensitive to file and folder names.

For example, folders named “Homework” and “HOMEWORK” are two different folders.APFS (Case-sensitive, Encrypted): Uses the APFS format, is case-sensitive to file and folder names, and encrypts the volume. For example, folders named “Homework” and “HOMEWORK” are two different folders.You can easily. Each volume within an APFS container can have its own APFS format—APFS, APFS (Encrypted), APFS (Case-sensitive), or APFS (Case-sensitive, Encrypted).

Not asking for infinite items or cash, not even asking for xp - just health ammo and no reloadregardless of it i know i can still get thru it without it. Id rather just have infinite health and that's it.aside from this - even though its not advertised - some of them do work on MP even if not intended im just saying so this would be no different - but then again im not asking for an MP trainer. Also if you activate the trainer and choose one of the options on it there's a sound bite that plays.yeah.even if you're offline.but whatever. Hell i could even do without the infinite ammo and no reload. Dead frontier 2 hack.
