Hackintosh Guide with Clover Bootloader on Serie 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Q: What is a Hackintosh?

A Hackintosh is a non-Apple computer that runs macOS using compatible hardware and custom bootloaders such as OpenCore or Clover.

Q: Is building a Hackintosh legal?

Installing macOS on non-Apple hardware violates Apple's macOS license agreement. It is generally used for educational and experimental purposes.

Q: What hardware is best for Hackintosh?

Intel CPUs with compatible chipsets and supported AMD GPUs are typically best for Hackintosh. Hardware compatibility is critical for stability and performance.

Q: What is OpenCore in Hackintosh?

OpenCore is a modern bootloader used to boot macOS on non-Apple hardware. It provides better compatibility, security, and system stability than older bootloaders.

Q: Can Hackintosh be updated like a real Mac?

Hackintosh systems can be updated, but updates should be done carefully. Bootloader, kexts, and configuration files often need updates before installing new macOS versions.

Q: Is Hackintosh suitable for professional work?

A properly configured Hackintosh can be stable enough for professional tasks such as software development, audio production, and video editing, depending on hardware compatibility.

Q: Does Hackintosh support Intel and AMD processors?

Hackintosh supports both Intel and AMD processors, although Intel systems generally offer broader compatibility and easier configuration.

Q: Can macOS run faster on Hackintosh than on a Mac?

In some cases, high-end Hackintosh hardware can outperform older Macs, but performance depends on hardware choice, configuration quality, and macOS compatibility.

Após 2 ou 3 boots bem sucedidos, voltou ao mesmo. Apaguei a kext da placa de rede da intel, deixando apenas a Atheros e nunca mais voltou a acontecer.

Experimentei a colocar as duas kext's das placas de rede novamente e volta a deixar de dar boot de imediato.

Incompatibilidade? Futura actualização do clover?

Um abraço

Continua a não dar boot. Experimentei a AppleIntelE1000e.kext e funciona, tanto boot como a reconhecer a placa.

Follow new SEND ME generated after replacing with your CLOVER.

Now appears to me percentage of the battery.

But with Inject Intel HD I have the error shown in the picture below.

Thank you very much already.

Aidzi · September 9, 2018

Hello MaLd0n, thanks for your advice on how to make graphics work - even if it did not work and I bought another one that installed more easily.

I have a question - would you help me make the sound on my ga-b150m-ds3h ddr3 (rev 1.0), High Sierra 10.13.5, CPU Intel Core i5 - 6500, I tried more tutorials, but I can not make it operational.

Thank you for your time..

u can reproduce the problems and check in logs if appears there

CODE: SELECT ALL

log show | grep -i acpidebug

I install the kext and add the _PTS and _WAK on DSDT as you suggested, you can check the DSDT file I attached.

but when I run

log show | grep -i acpidebug

this is the output I think the kext no debug information form the kernel:

Hello MaLd0n, thanks for your advice on how to make graphics work - even if it did not work and I bought another one that installed more easily.

I have a question - would you help me make the sound on my ga-b150m-ds3h ddr3 (rev 1.0), High Sierra 10.13.5, CPU Intel Core i5 - 6500, I tried more tutorials, but I can not make it operational.

Thank you for your time..

Good morning, MaLd0n ..

Maybe I got it wrong, but I overwritten the CLOVER folder with what you sent me but no sound driver appeared ..

Hi MaLd0n,

I don't understand how to do per the instruction "Haswell+ use "plugin-type"=0x01" in Power Management section. Could you tell more details.

Thanks.
