EssentialsList

A small python script that creates a timestamped zip on your Desktop containing troubleshooting info.

To install:

Do the following one line at a time in Terminal:

git clone https://github.com/corpnewt/EssentialsList
cd EssentialsList
chmod +x EssentialsList.command

Then run with either ./EssentialsList.command or by double-clicking EssentialsList.command

What it gets:

The script can be customized (with more features coming in the future hopefully), but the defaults grab the following:

• Version of BOOTX64.efi and CLOVERX64.efi
• config.plist (as well as verifying structure)
• Kext lists and versions from the 10.xx and Other folders
• SSDT/DSDT from ACPI -> origin and patched
• drivers32/64(UEFI) list
• debug.log
• preboot.log
• bdmesg
• kextstat
• kextcache (both raw and cleaned versions)
• List of kexts and versions from /Library/Extensions and /System/Library/Extensions
• sysctl machdep.cpu/xcpm
• patchmatic dump
• pmset -g and assertions
• diskutil list
• Mount points
• IOReg
• General overview of the Clover installs/system

It also auto-finds the booted Clover install by parsing bdmesg - but will prompt the user if not found.

It can auto-mount EFI partitions, and will remember the state and return it when completed.

It saves the output to a timestamped zip on the Desktop with the format EssentialsList-[timestamp].zip

• Apple for making it so damn hard to resolve apfs and core storage volumes to their respective EFI partitions...
