Honesty and reality dictate that you avoid wasting your time on this, the Latitude E6410 with 1st gen Intel HD graphics is not suitable as a Hackintosh. Partial acceleration means you only get screen resolution working but no graphics acceleration per sé. Core Image on its own is kind of useless... That makes the system pretty much unusable due to graphics defects, severe lagging and overall degraded performance. You'd have no sleep & wake or external display capability neither since this is driven by the graphics framebuffer. You'd only spend a lot of time for nothing given that you wouldn't really use the system afterwards.

 

Only the E6410 with nVidia graphics is suitable as a Hackintosh. Feel free to conduct a Search on "E6410 Intel" on this forum or OSXLatitude's and you'll find plenty of threads on the same matter.

What if I put a eGPU like a gt 730 or amd radeon r5 240
