I know this seems simple and I have tried the steps on OCLP although it assumes you have internet on the system and that you completed the install on to your SSD. I installed OCLP Sonoma on a MBP Retina mid 2014 15 inch. It went well except as going through Apple welcomw setup I am not abe to receive any WiFi in addition the display is like 30000 x 90000 so freakin small it took maginfing glass to open display to attempt to change. Well it will not show any other display ratios. So at this point I planned to just wipe the USB clean setup an older OCLP with Ventura which is working on a MBP mid 2010 15 inch I have been using.
I went through the step on OCLP about MountEFI and selected the USB EFI, but I am not sure what to do here.
"Once the EFI's mounted, we'll want to grab our EFI folder on there and keep in a safe place. We'll then want to eject the USB drive's EFI as having multiple EFI's mounted can confuse macOS sometimes, best practice is to keep only 1 EFI mounted at a time(you can eject just the EFI, the drive itself doesn't need to be removed)
Note: Installers made with gibMacOS's MakeInstall.bat on Windows will default to a Master Boot Record(MBR) partition map, this means there is no dedicated EFI partition instead being the BOOT
partition that mounts by default in macOS."
I have mounted the USB and now see but not sure what they mean by grad EFI and keep safe place? Do I now select (2.) and copy to another drive? I just want to erase (unistall) whatever terminology to start over with this USB.
