Booting macOS 11 and macOS 12 OpenRuntime.efi is need.
Rev 5142+ Using new OpenRuntime.efi.
There is incompatibility with older version. Clover before 5142 requires OpenRuntime.efi version 1.1 while 5142+ requires version 1.2.
What to do if you sometime want to reboot with older version?
Slice made special folder drivers/5142 where I placed OpenRuntime-v12.efi. And common folder drivers/UEFI contains OpenRuntime-v11.efi.
How it works ⤵︎
Old Clover not see the folder 5142 and uses common folder drivers/UEFI and read here openRuntime-v11.efi.
New Clover see the folder drivers/5142 and read here new OpenRuntime-v12.efi which is in priority in the version.
That's all!
OpenCorePkg repos used by Clover ☞ OpenCorePkg is used by Clover
OpenCorePkg is not same as original. Based on OpenCore 0.7.5 it is improved up to latest version. Clover uses some part of the package delegating kext injecting and patching abilities to OC libraries. Big respect to vit9696 for these libraries. Clover keeps own syntax for kernel and kext patching and converted them to OC syntax Conversion rulez but the method for binary patching in the OC library is replaced by Clover's method because it has more possibilities.
Some new quirks implemented in new OC versions have no analogs in the Clover's config.plist because they are very specific for rare hardware. If you really need them then search how to do the same by common kext patching. Usually the new quirk is just a shortcut to one kernel or kext patch.
