FakeSteez Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Heres the hard truth: Hackintoshes are very HARDWARE SPECIFIC. Before you do anything, check your hardware compatibility here. I see you're on intel. Good, this will make it much easier to install. I can only help you up to the installation part, because I have none of your hardware. This is what worked for me: Step one: Obtain a copy of Snow Leopard. $30 upgrade CD will do. Step two: Burn yourself a copy of Empire EFI. ESSENTIAL. Step three: Boot to Empire EFI and proceed to install snow leopard. Step Four: install SL. Step Five: pull up a laptop and begin your search for kexts (mac equiv. of a windows "driver") WARNING: All of this might not even work/You might have to buy a new MB. But the DVD is absolutely necessary in all hackintoshes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richyaxe Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 @FakeSteez : Thanks for quick reply... What is this -> Empire EFI. ESSENTIAL. Why we require this? Is it for boot for first time & then use OS X DVD for installation like [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]?
