justniell Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Thanks, and did you know which yosemite/mavericks distro i should install? there's only distro mavericks for now, it's iAtkos-Mavericks and Niresh-Mavericks. Yosemite is only available as Retail. If you want something simple, go with Niresh-Mavericks. You can make UFD installer from windows with win32diskImage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendietinha Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 dont recommend distros as simpler. they are not, they are faulty and unstable. with the guides provided here, it is even simpler than those terrible distros. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After using Yosemite for nearly 12hours now, I can say that retail is more stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AINDN Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 Hello You're Welcome... but, forget distro... retail is great Yeah, i had tried iatkos mountain lion on a old pc, it was a bad experience but i've choosed distro because it was easier, now i will not make the same mistake thank to you guys (Sorry for my bad english) P.S.Is it worth to install hackintosh mac os x on my pc(with the hardware that i've posted before) to use graphic editing and video editing? Or for your opinion it will go better on windows or linux distro? This may be offtopic xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hard part is firguring right the AMD graphics cards work and support native in OSX. On the Nvidia field, people got the cuda to accelerate in program such Adobe edidting. the new iMac 5k, they use the Radeon R9 M290X. I wonder how much would they support on the Radeon R9 or R7 desktop line? BTW, try and let us know about. such thing as SSD and fast ram bring some benefit to the editing also.

Yes, but from what i've heard the amd gpu were better for editing(vfx, gfx) because of CTM(a lower language than CUDA) that has more parallel stuff power xD Now i will try with the integrated gpu, when i will buy the new GPU(because i am waiting amd new r9 3xx series on Q1 2015*) so i will have more experience on hackintosh. *I am waiting AMD R9 3XX series becasue now NVIDIA has released the new GTX 9xx series, and when even amd will release the new GPUs i will choose between them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Example: <key>Boot</key> <dict> <key>Arguments</key> <string>kext-dev-mode=1 -v</string> I don't know programming and i am on windows actually, but you mean that i have to input that line in the command line in the bottom like for example with chameleon when i write the command to activate the verbose mode?

Pimentel Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Hello Yes, you can type this in Chameleon Screen Bootloader... -v kext-dev-mode=1 I believe that you're using Clover because of this i give that code block to you.... but if you want boot Yosemite with Chameleon everythime without type always kext-dev-mode=1 in Boot Screen, you need put this flag in org.chameleon.boot.plist, use Chameleon Wizard to make this 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
