How to Hide Partitions in Boot Picker [Clover/OpenCore]

This guide covers hiding partitions in Boot Picker, supported by Clover and OpenCore. By following this guide, you'll be able to hide the unwanted partitions that you don't what to see in the boot picker, either Clover or OpenCore.

For Clover

---

1. Mount your ESP.
2. Open your config.plist from EFI/Clover directory.
3. In the Hide Volume section, add the entries you want to hide. The entry must be the same as the name of the partition you want to hide. For example, if you want to hide the recovery partition of macOS, you need to add "Recovery HD" as an entry. Please note that if you're having more than one macOS version installed, every recovery partition will be hidden.
4. Save config.plist.

For OpenCore

---

1. Mount your ESP.
2. Open your config.plist from EFI/OC directory.
3. In the Misc section, enable HideAuxiliary Option. This will hide all the unnecessary volumes. To show the volumes in boot picker, press Space Bar key on your keyboard and you can see all the volumes.
4. Save config.plist

Unfortunately, when I enable HideAuxiliary Option it doesn't hide NO NAME Linux partition.
