wizkidweb Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hi all - I just purchased the HP Omen 15 gaming notebook and I can't seem to get any of the Yosemite installations to boot via USB. Upon choosing the USB drive, I'm taken to a secondary bootloader (perhaps non-UEFI?) and the drive disappears from the device list. I'm not sure where to go from here, but this laptop would be really cool to have OSX running on. Here are my hardware specs: Intel Core i7-4710HQ @ 2.5GHz 8.00GB RAM GeForce GTX 860M 2GB Windows 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 All you need, you can find here: [Guide] AIO Guides For Hackintosh And for create a USB installation: Making a 10.10/10.11 USB Installer /w Clover (UEFI and Legacy) the correct way! One note: The GTX 860M don't work like switched dual-GPU (because is not supported for Hacks). You can use HD 4600. If you have any errors, take a pic and reporte here.

wizkidweb Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 Hi so I installed Clover on a Yosemite installation disk, as per the instructions, but I'm having trouble booting into the installer. After selecting the OS X installer in Clover, I get a black screen with no text, even in verbose mode. I've tried: -v -v -x -nv_disable=1 I can't even see what's happening, because I don't get any errors! Can anyone shed light on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Boot in -v and post the pic here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizkidweb Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 There's nothing to show, it's just a black screen with no text when I boot with -v I'm trying the USB install creation process again. I'll post a pic if anything shows on the screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizkidweb Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 OK so after trying a million processes for clover without any errors to go on, I'm moving on to trying the Chameleon bootloader. I get a little further with that, where it starts loading all of the kexts. However, once it reaches TMSafetyNet.kext, it reboots. Attached is a screenshot of the screen just before it resets. This problem occurs no matter what boot flags I've tried so far. I've tried: -f -v GraphicsEnabler=Yes npci=0x2000 PciRootUID=1 and every combination of those flags. I also tried removing the TMSafetyNet.kext, but to no avail, it still reboots in the same spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Try this: -f -v GraphicsEnabler=Yes IntelCapriFB=3 -nv_disable=1 Or -f -v GraphicsEnabler=No IntelCapriFB=3 -nv_disable=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vladichimescu Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Although I removed the OS X (at least for now, until OS X El Capitan is released, don't know if I'll hackin' it again, not having much time available)... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc1laFHM6Kg for now, you can get it here: http://s.go.ro/l3pstf82 pass: 849103 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
