Booting without USB drive
Once you've installed macOS through OpenCore, you can boot up and go through the regular install process. To boot without the USB drive plugged in is quite simple:
- Download OpenCore Legacy Patcher
- Change Patcher settings as you'd like
- Build OpenCore again
- Install OpenCore to internal drive
- Reboot holding Option, and select the internal EFI
And voila! No more USB drive required
Booting seamlessly without Verbose or OpenCore Picker
To do this, run the OpenCore Patcher and head to Patcher Settings:
Here you can change different patcher settings, however the main interest is:
- Set ShowPicker Mode
Once you've toggled them both off, build your OpenCore EFI once again and install to your desired drive. Now to show the OpenCore selector, you can simply hold down the "ESC" key while clicking on EFI boot, then you can release the "ESC" key when you see the cursor arrow at the top left.
Applying Post Install Volume Patches
Note: For users who need Post-Install Volume patches for legacy video acceleration support, you must disable the following settings in "Patcher Settings" when building and installing your new OpenCore:
- SIP: Disabled
- SecureBootModel: Disabled
Once set, rebuild OpenCore, install to drive and reboot. Then, Post-Install Volume patches will run just fine
To apply the Post-Install Volume patches to test out the Beta Graphics Acceleration Patches system, select option #3 as shown below:
And go ahead to option #1 and let the OCLP patcher apply the needed legacy video patches.
Reboot your system and check out the now working graphics acceleration on your legacy system. This is still Beta software.
