NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Hi all, I'm not sure if this may be the wrong forum to post this but I would like to know if it would be possible to run OSX Yosemite or El Capitan on the Intel Atom X5-8300? I know it may require a modded kernel or something through Clover but it would be incredible to be able to run it. Can people please let me what they think. Thanks nscxp2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 look here patched kernel for Mavericks 10.9.5 Yosemite 10.10.5 is also possible but El Capitan is not to think about at the moment. source is not yet published. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Cool. What about Yosemite or El Capitan. Do you think it would be possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 for Yosemite 10.10.5 last build, I could patch the kernel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 That's would be awesome! Do you think if it will work on yosemite, it would then work in El Capitan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) I have already described above, that the source of El Capitan is not yet published, therefore it is not possible at the moment. I think that apple will publish the source in this or in next week? we have been waiting for a while on the source. Edit: still waiting for about five minutes, then the kernel will be finished. then you can test Edited October 25, 2015 by spakk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Awesome. I don't have the cherry trail device yet. Do you think somebody could test it. You think OSX could run on something like this? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/802007522/up-intel-x5-z8300-board-in-a-raspberry-pi2-form-fa/description I think it would work as long as it has 2GB RAM.

spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) the kernel will work, as no errors were generated in the building of the kernel.

NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Awesome. Will the kernel need to be put on the install USB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 after you have created the USB Stick with Disk Utility or an auxiliary tool, eg by Chris1111, then create the folder /System/Library/Kernels/ then put the kernel in to the folder 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Do you think OSX will install on the device in the link I've posted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 There are a lot of tools to check the hardware, in as far as the hardware is compatible to OS X. Use as the SystemInfo.app, this app is for various operating systems. This means that you can test this, before installing os x. I have no experience with your hardware. if you can create the evaluation with systemInfo.app on your hardware, then it's possible to make statement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 OK. What's the best SystemInfo.app to use? Windows or Linux? The device is a Kickstarter Campaign I am backing. It's not my device but will be when it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) ..... systemInfo.app is available for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X Edited October 25, 2015 by spakk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 OK. Cool. I've asked the developers of the device about compatability with OSX they haven't contacted back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spakk Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 who have no idea , Developer for ( OS X ) hackintoshs there are only here on insaneleymac.com eg. you can not ask Microsoft Developer whether a Personal Computer is with OS X compatible, they will laugh at you, and will argue that this will not work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSCXP2005 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 OK. When I get the device I will send you the SystemInfo log and ask your advice. Will that be OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashnburn_in Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 So, did anyone get a Cherry Trail or following Braswell SoC type like stuff work under OSX - Older version will be fine as well look here patched kernel for Mavericks 10.9.5 Yosemite 10.10.5 is also possible but El Capitan is not to think about at the moment. source is not yet published. I'd like to be able to run Xcode - Even if not latest atleast versions from 2015 that allow side loading of apps and little app dev - not major. Which OSX version allows the above to run..? and can I run that OSX on a Braswell SoC box? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
