Usually, just before the Clover Menu.įor me, it is not aesthetically pleasing to see such messages on every reboot. The original apfs.efi extracted from /usr/standalone/i386/ displays some flash messages (verbose texts) when it is loaded.
But, it has an annoying problem, at least for me. You can always go-ahead to use this driver as it is if you want. The good news is that High Sierra, even the combo updates are shipped with apfs.efi driver in it under (/usr/standalone/i386/). Like kexts, to stay updated, apfs.efi should be updated concurrently with each new High Sierra release. Apfs.efi is installed in either /EFI/Clover/drivers64UEFI or /EFI/Clover/drivers64 folder depending on the bios system that we have (UEFI/Legacy). Ever since Apple introduced the new File system (Apple File System - a.k.a APFS) in macOS High Sierra, there’s a need to add an additional driver called apfs.efi into our Clover in order to boot successfully.
