CloverBootloader: [SOLVED] GUI Custom Entry for Big Sur Preboot breaks loading kexts from '11' folder

Tested Clover versions: 5128, 5129

Expected behavior: regardless if Big Sur is started via the default “Boot Mac OS X from Big Sur via Preboot” or via a custom GUI entry, Clover should load kexts from any of the corresponding folders in CLOVER/kexts, Other and 11.

Bug: having moved kexts from Other into 11 (for compatibility with other versions of macOS installed parallel to other disk partitions which load their kexts from their respective folders) -> Kernel panic.

Observation: Clover only loads kexts from Other and fails to load them from 11 or/and 11.2 (for my Big Sur 11.2 RC install)

Successless attempts to resolve or work-around:

• in addition to the 11 and the 11.2 folders for my Big Sur 11.2 RC install, also created folders I figured might have a chance to maybe be relevant for Clover to load macOS Big Sur kexts (11. / 10.16) and placed kexts into those folders
• altered OS X ‘Type’ entry from Big Sur GUI entry: removed, Other, Preboot

Steps to reproduce:

• follow @vaczi001’s manual to create a custom GUI entry for Big Sur
• move all kexts from OTHER into 11
• try boot Big Sur entry

vaczi001 (github nic) aka kushwavez (insanelymac nic) has reproduced this issue on his Hack, too, also with Clover 5129. In addition he found out that

From log I can see that seems like kexts are being searched and added to the array, but won’t load after that:

0:993  0:000  AddKextsInArray from Other
0:993  0:000  AddKextsInArray from Off
0:993  0:000  AddKextsInArray from Unknown

There is no “AddKextsInArray from 11” so the kexts won’t load.
