Installation


⚠️ SOME WARNINGS BEFORE ⚠️:

1. During all the process, try have another laptop/PC with Hackintosh posibilities (as last resource for fix any Boot problems)

2. Use a SATA3 SSD for install any MacOS version; HDDs are so slow for this; M.2 SSDs may be work, but, default BIOS doesn't support it

Works:


  • Opencore 0.9.2 βœ… (Although OC Menu doesn't recognize periphericals)

  • Installer Boot βœ… (Installation on SSD: ~30/35 minutes)

  • System Boot βœ…

  • USB Ports βœ…

  • VoodooPS2Controller/Keyboard+Touchpad βœ…

  • Camera βœ… (works perfectly)

  • Battery charging and stats βœ…

  • Screen βœ… (1336x768)

  • Audio Card βœ… (Could be sounds cutted)

  • Wi-Fi βœ… (It's fully working)

Not works:


  • HDMI ❌ (Enable it with OCLP, but not for now)
  • VGA/Displayport ❌ (System try put in 90Hz and the built-in screen crash)
