SorridoSuneko Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Although I'm sure this topic has been stressed more than enough around these parts of the web and there are numerous guides about how to patch the ISO or the USB installer of OS X to install itself on an MBR partitioned drive, by replacing OSInstall and OSInstall.mpkg, my problem lies in the precedure itself. All the guides I've found involve doing the work on a Mac, which, of course, I have no access to, since I do not own one, no neighbour owns one, no friend owns one. Nobody. So, if anyone could be kind, can someone share with me a way of doing this either on Windows or Linux? It would be highly appreciated. Oh, and I forgot, I think I should post my PC build, if it's of any assistance: ASUS Maximus VII Ranger Haswell i7 4770K Gigabyte Radeon 77901GB OC Edition Rev1 Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB Corsair 750W WD Caviar Black 1TB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimentel Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Hello I gave to you a method... see that... is for windows users You have a UEFI borad i believe so... if you enbale UEFI in Bios only GUID table will work... MBR not, because in legacy mode you can use MBR or GUI when you gonna install OSX and Win in the same HDD, but when you gonna install in UEFI mode, GUID is for OSX and for Win... See in here more detail how make dual-boot in UEFI mode: http://olarila.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3405 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorridoSuneko Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 I do understand that, though, my question is if I can modify my OS X USB Installer to install OS X in an MBR partition from Windows, since all the guides that say that I have to delete some mach_kernel stuff require a working Mac machine. Thank you for your answer, though, sir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimentel Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Hello If you already have Windows installed, you can just use legacy mode in bios and install OSX in MBR table... Use MBR patch for this: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/145-mavericks-mbr-patch/ After install OSX you need repair Windows installation with Windows DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
