MP 1,1-5,1 OCLP Monterey + EnableGOP - no bootloader only OCLP boot loader

[AndreiC1011]

Hello,

I have installed OCLP Monterey and EnableGOP. I was able to see the Apple boot loader just until I connected my second monitor on HDMI.

Now, regardless if I connect or disconnect the HDMI monitor, I can only see what I think is the OCLP bootloader. I also tried to deselect and reselect the OpenCore bootpicker from the OpenCore app, but no change..


Can you please tell me if I can launch a legacy (DVD) Windows installation from this bootloader? Is it safe? I do not want to introduce any windows certificates to my bootrom.

Thank you!

LE: solved, it was a keyboard issue... Holding options was not actually doing anything. Changing the keyboard solved it.

For firmware preboot keys it needs an USB 1 keyboard.

It's good to know that your problem is fixed.

Anyway, for your info, if you want to boot from an optical disc, you can always hold C key to boot, no need to select it via boot picker. This works regardless if there is any boot screen.

Is it safe? I do not want to introduce any windows certificates to my bootrom.

It is safe to boot legacy Windows (and the associated installation disc).
