Stuck on Boot Menu. OpenCore is not loading.
SaFamAnaK opened this issue · comments
OpenCore is not loading. When getting into the Boot Menu I can see the USB drive but when pressing it nothing happens. I get a black screen for a second and then it gets back to the Boot Menu.
I did everything like it says in the guide so I expected it to load.
Env:
- Running OSX version: Big Sur 11.1
- Target drive OSX version: Monterey 12.5.1
- HaC Mini installer version: 3.1.5
Thank you for the help!

What is the currently installed Version of HaCMini.pkg?
Did you try erase NVRAM?
Did you try the guide for 3.0.1?
Did you try V3.2.0
Hi,
I haven't tried NVRAM or guide for 3.0.1 or 3.2.0. I will try now and update the results.
The HaCMini.pkg version is 3.1.5
Thanks!
I cannot erase the NVRAM because I cannot boot into OpenCore.
When pressing on OpenCore nothing happens.
I am adding an example.

I have actually never seen this menu...I boot via changing boot order in BIOS.
And maybe the Window Bootmanager interferes...looks like you are trinig dual boot? Never did this - I use one SSD for Windows and one for MacOS.
And the installer.pdf is the install.log from the installer?
Looks like the installer media creation failed!?

Did you follow the instructions for the BIOS settings?
Did you use the correct Boot order?
How did you create the install media?

what's mean of the correct Boot order? i can boot the ubuntu and windows installer on it
Boot order - I mean „Boot Priority".

Okay - you can boot from USB sticks.
So it seems the installer creation might have failed...
You could try again and create a log - AFAIR there is an Option for creating an install.log.
Or - You could try to make a Catalina installer and then Upgrade through OTA-Update – that is how I did my last install two weeks ago.
HI,
I just tried with Catalina as well and still the same. I downloaded HacMini.pkg 3.1.4 and tried to, with secure boot enabled and disabled and nothing.

As I wrote before - I suspect your installer creation failed/failes!
Secure Boot must be disabled!
It should work - I used 3.2.0 with Catalina and it worked flawlessly.
The installer creation seems ok. I get no errors.
What is your BIOS version?
Can you share some screenshots? I am sure I am doing it all right without getting ant errors.
I use the latest BIOS.

I will try to make a screen shot - may be to night or tomorrow night - HaC Mini isn't my primary machine.
Thank you! Waiting for your update.
@northeastwolf Any luck?
I got bad news - while trying to redo the process and make some meaningful screenshots in the process I ran into a problem I didn't have before!
I can’t create a HaC mini installer USB anymore. The only thing that has changed is that my main HaC mini and my MacBook Pro are now on the latest Catalina. The HaCmini.pkg throws a 112 Error and fails.
The question is - can the installer still run successfully on the latest Catalina?
As I wrote - I tried two machines and both failed.
I will try it again on the other Hac Mini that runs with latest Monterey - but I don't have high hopes here...:-(
I then tried my “old” installer which I created two weeks ago with Catalina 15.7.03(before updating the MacBook) - and hitting F10 and starting OpenCore from this stick through the boot menu works.
This installer works in every way and I used it to install another NUC8i7HVK which I subsequently upgraded to Monterey 12.6..
Same problem. I was able to install Catalina only one time.
USB installer showed as OpenCore in bios, but "no bootable device detected" no matter what I do.
Latest bios, bios reset. tried Catalina, Monterey install, HacMini.pkg 3.1.5, 3.2.0. installer creation has no errors (m1 MacBook Air if it matters).
BUT MY NUC DIDN'T BOOT FROM usb installer.
P.S. I formatted my flash-drive again and tried manually add clover bootloader. It still shows as efi usb opencore in bios. and still doesn't boot. Doesn't it's strange?
The same problem for me. Created the Ventura installer with Hacmini 3.2.2 package installed for the usb stick. I can see the opencore in boot menu, but when choosing opencore boot, the screen will black and then return back to same the boot menu again.
I have the same problem.
but I`m install macos13，use HaC Mini v3.2.2
