Quick documentation of what I had to do to successfully update from OpenCore 0.6.5 to OpenCore 0.6.6

By following this link https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/multiboot/bootstrap.html#updating-bootstrap-in-0-6-6.

NOTE: This is specifically tied to my own configuration and I'm mainly documenting this as to not forget about it in the future. I would advise you follow the instructions in the link above before anything else.

  1. IMPORTANT: Prepare a USB key with OpenShell.efi copied to /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi
  2. Set Misc -> Security -> AllowNvramReset to True and Misc -> Boot -> BootProtect to None
  3. Reset NVRAM
  4. Boot normally
  5. Update OpenCore files
    1. OpenCore-0.6.6-RELEASE/X64/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi -> EFI/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi
    2. OpenCore-0.6.6-RELEASE/X64/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi -> EFI/EFI/OC/Bootstrap/Bootstrap.efi
    3. OpenCore-0.6.6-RELEASE/X64/EFI/OC/Drivers/OpenCanopy.efi -> EFI/EFI/OC/Drivers/OpenCanopy.efi
    4. OpenCore-0.6.6-RELEASE/X64/EFI/OC/Drivers/OpenRuntime.efi -> EFI/EFI/OC/Drivers/OpenRuntime.efi
    5. OpenCore-0.6.6-RELEASE/X64/EFI/OC/OpenCore.efi -> EFI/EFI/OC/OpenCore.efi
  6. Set Misc -> Boot -> LauncherOption to Full
  7. Reboot into the OpenShell USB from the first step
  8. End up in OpenShell
  9. Adjust resolution by typing mode and then mode col row where col and row correspond to one of the modes listed
  10. Cycle through volumes by typing FS0:,FS1:, FS2:.. until we find macOS' EFI partition (in my situation it's FS6:)
  11. Type efi\boot\BOOTx64.efi to launch OpenCore
  12. Boot macOS normally
  13. Reboot
  14. The BIOS should have an OpenCore entry corresponding to the boot volume
  15. Optional: you should be able to safely remove EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi from the boot volume
