spakk Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 that should work. with small adjustments in extra, such as eg. in Extra/Extensions/ any other drivers for ?.... a new DSDT.aml if you used one.

fusion71au Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Definitely possible to do this but easier if you use Clover since you can store different system configurations in OEM folders. Try to keep S/L/E as "vanilla" as possible and keep "hackintosh kexts" elsewhere eg /Extra/Extensions if using chameleon & boot without kernel cache. As an example of Clover booting multiple machines, have a look at my post here where I can use the same external USB HD to boot 3 different machines...
