Install MacOS with Vanilla Olarila Image, Step by Step

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.

Anyone can help me please?

I installed High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G9016). Which is working smoothly, I've got two problems tho.

One is the WIFI, but from what read in others forums I can't use my native WIFI board and will need a Broadcom M.2. Already brought it so no problem.

Second is the video. I have a 1050 Ti. I installed Nvidia Webdriver (387.1.10.10.40.132), which is recognized but for some reason it's only showing Intel Graphics card. I set config.plist to true in NvidiaWeb. I don't know what am I missing. If anyone can help I'll be thankful.

Notebook Config:

ACER VX5-591

Intel i7-7700HQ

16GB RAM

1TB SATA

Nvidia GTX 1050Ti 4GB

Hello,

-in my hackintosh in the section of acpi, I appear (Gaussian Mixture) eh tried to activate it by hackintool but there was no way!

Would you know how to activate it?

-otherwise the trackpad of my laptop, does not work the function of pulsation with 2 fingers (update vodoops2Controller.kext to the latest version, but my keyboard and trackpad stop working)

use another kext called Applesmart..but they were not detected either ..

thanks!! http:// https://ibb.co/54hcG3y

MaLd0n · December 5, 2019

End randomseed +++++ thn auto reboot.......

Nexxusone · December 6, 2019

system specs please, cpu + graphics card + motherboard name, model, revision etc, (i.e mines a Asus B360G Gaming / i5-9400f / RX5700) as certain chipsets requires different clover folders added/merged into the usb installer. Mine required the 300 chipset.zip merged a custom DSDT.aml file and correctly configured Config.plist - Maldon (forum owner / mod) will help with dsdt.aml file.

VT-d should be off, and VTT should be on if these setting available to you.

i didn't read all 89 pages of this thread so apologies if that's been asked before.

anyway is there another way of writing these images? maybe dd or something else?

because Etcher only seems to write to flash drives/cards. but i'd like to use a partition of a real hard drive.

MaLd0n · December 6, 2019

[ref]Rhoqr[/ref], just restore

Rhoqr · December 6, 2019

you mean with disk utility or the terminal "restore" program?

Edit: never mind, it worked with dd. thanks!

the3rdknuckles · December 9, 2019

Ok so after doing everything up to the replacing EFI then install clover again when I reboot my trackpad doesn’t respond normally.

Fala galera, tranquilos?

Alguém teve problema com essas ultimas atualizações do Catalina? Aqui estava funcionando fino, porém, fui deixar rodar uma atualização de uns dias atrás, eis que perdi o vídeo após a inicialização, rodei em modo verbose e não apareceu erro...

the3rdknuckles · December 10, 2019

check if device is i2c

I switched voodoo another and my trackpad works fine, but I switch the 2 Realtek and my WiFi still doesn’t work.
