3.1.2 Losing Boot Device

fucongwanglucid opened this issue · comments

Describe the bug
I upgraded to 3.1.2 from 3.0.1, and after the reboot, my boot device disappeared from the boot options. The system is 10.15.7.

I reinstalled 10.15.7 using a recovery USB with 3.0.1 and it came back.

I then installed 3.1.2 on the same recovery USB, wiped the hard drive and installed 10.15.7 from scratch, but the boot didn't come back. I tried resetting BIOS settings and NVRAM, but still it doesn't work.

Expected behavior
I expect that after I upgrade from 3.0.1 to 3.1.2, the system would boot up like usual.

  • Second DIMM model (if installed): Kingston HyperX DDR4 16GB

Hmm two SSDs seemed to always be buggy but maybe this is an OC issue. Someone else should chime in.

its seems related with speicifc SSD brand or any brand SSD will encounter this issue anyway?
I use two WD black SSD. I just use 3.1.0 and so far so good. not update to 3.1.2 because see this . wait further fix.

From #942 it seems like the issue is with Intel Bluetooth option. Please uncheck that and reinstall and wait for an update for Intel Bluetooth.

I had the same problem with only one SSD installed. I'm also not using the Intel Bluetooth option. To get everything working again I patched a Mojave installer with the latest version 2. And then restored all my files with Timemachine. I have now upgraded to Big Sur and will try to install version 3.1.2 again as soon a my backup is finished, to see if it is a MacOs 10 problem.

Hmm I'm using a broadcom card, so not related to that issue unfortunately.

So I installed version v3.1.2 again, but now running Big Sur and everything seems to be working fine.

I installed V3.1.2 on a 10.15.7 system as well, same problem. Then I used USB to enter the system and re-tried to install V3.1.0 still could not boot properly, finally I had to return to V3.0.1 and then the system was normal.

Is this the Bluetooth issue still?

Using Broadcom's Bluetooth not Intel

Those still running into the issue try reinstalling macos from the recovery partition.

Same issue with @fucongwanglucid & @Przeblysk .
Upgraded the EFI to 3.1.3 from 3.0.1, "macOS" and "Recovery 10.15.7" boot items both lost, Windows boots normally.
I remember I picked the "back up EFI" option, but I don't know where can I find the backup.
I'm using Dell DW1820A, separated 2 SSDs.
It's very appreciated if you could inform me the solution.

@haiwitz Can you try re-installing from a USB installer?

I got the same issue. Re-installing from a USB installer is no use.

commented

Can one of you in this thread with the issue try installing each version of HaC mini in reverse to find the first version that has this problem? That would help narrow down the issue.

I belive the first version has this problem is 3.1.0. The last workable version on my device is 3.0.1 which I still use now. I had try installing every version:3.1.0,3.1.1,3.1.2,3.1.3 for the past 3 months.
Information about my device is as same as the building-owner:NUC8i7HNK;MacOS 10.15.7 catalina

One SSD or two? The SSD with macOS installed on is SATA or NVMe?

2 SSDs, one for windows, one for Mac. Both are NVMe PCI-E3.0 SSDs, Model is:
HIKVISION C2000pro 2TB(MacOS installed)
Asgard AN2 2TB(Windows10 installed)

Okay I found the issue

https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/releases/tag/0.7.2

Increased default APFS MinDate and MinVersion to macOS Big Sur for better security

I will release an update that will set the version back to the old values.

1 SSD WDS100T3X0C-00SJG0 PCI-Express

Very appreciate that! 😊

Thank you for your work!

Nice!Problem solved!
