ahmed_ais Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Ahmed pls also make thread when apple will release 10.11 next week That is so early. Apple will only announce 10.11 but will not release it that soon I believe. At least, we would go through some developer previews and public betas before final release.

Prathamesh555 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I have heard apple gonna lock the root file even administrator can access it to avoid hackintosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vusun123 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Things will be pretty lax on my side if I wanna put the beta version onto my hacks. Simply install it on a real Mac, make an image out of it and restore it onto the hacks. The tricky part is that how kext injection will work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prathamesh555 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 What about win10 evwn that gonna lock secure boot option in bios right Its the time to show co operates like Microsoft by nit installing their os Microsoft can't face competition thats why it is doing such cheap tricks instead they should try figuring out how to optimize their os so it not a battery jargon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I use Secure Boot here, without problems. Like @vusun123 said, Clover can use Secure Boot: http://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Configuration/Boot#Secure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intruder16 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hi, So I've been experimenting with SSDT's for a couple of weeks. I am keeping all my SSDT's (not dropping them) even the CPU related ones. Don't know if its just me but now i am experiencing better system behavior, the animations/UI feel more snappy. It feels like I am using a fresh installation. The system is fast and more responsive than before. To all of you who use OS X regularly, try it (keep all SSDT's). See if you can feel any difference. BTW, DSDT Auto-Patcher already has an option (-k) for keeping all SSDT's. Try it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do you really mean to keep all SSDT's? the option (-k) will not preserve the dynamic SSDT's (at least will not copy them back to compiled folder). Also do you have some measures for performance gain? It's hard to notice differences on my system. Maybe the fact I'm running off an SSD and the system feels very responsive anyway.

ahmed_ais Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 @ahmed how you put an ssd will you list the ssd model and hdd caddy model even i want to upgrade to an ssd For the SSD, I am using Samsung 850 EVO 250GB. There are many options for the caddy but this is the one I bought over eBay. Once you have the parts, open the laptop case and put the SSD in place of the HDD and connect the HDD through the caddy. This configuration will keep the SSD (which will have the OS's) connected all the time and the HDD (for data) can be swapped for 2nd GPU or DVD on demand.

intruder16 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 ....But do you really mean to keep all SSDT's? the option (-k) will not preserve the dynamic SSDT's (at least will not copy them back to compiled folder)..... Except Dynamic SSDT's. ....Also do you have some measures for performance gain? It's hard to notice differences on my system..... I tried running Geekbench etc. but everytime i run it the scores are different. So i cannot say for a fact that the method does work. It might or might not be more responsive. No way to know that. That's why i was asking to use it for a time and feel if there's any difference. ...Maybe the fact I'm running off an SSD and the system feels very responsive anyway. LOL. Maybe coz i switched from Windows, i think OS X is more responsive. @ahmed how you put an ssd will you list the ssd model and hdd caddy model even i want to upgrade to an ssd You can search for other SSD's too. There are a lot of them in the market. See what suits you better. And of course don't forget to do some research before you buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmed_ais Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 LOL. Maybe coz i switched from Windows, i think OS X is more responsive. Yes it is. Sadly, I am more productive on Windows but this might be related to years of practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahmed_ais Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 After your second part commands I can't boot nowhere anymore. What should I do? Let's take this slowly step by step. First, confirm that you have Y510p as I am not sure which laptop you have. Next, what do you mean by second part? This one "2. Preparing a Partition for OS X Yosemite" ?

TarvoMaesepp Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Yes I have y510p, i mean EFI partiton thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmed_ais Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 ... i mean EFI partiton thing. I will assume you mean "3. Increasing EFI Partition Size". So you booted using Windows USB installer and went all the way through the commands? But after that your PC does not boot even to Windows right?
