For those who need root patches: did you ever wonder what AutoPkgInstaller.kext and AutoPkg-Assets.pkg are for? Well, I did.

 

In a nutshell: it allows auto-patching macOS during install from a USB flash drive. So no more laggy 1st time setup-screens, since it applies iGPU/GPU patches if your system needs them. It also installs OpenCore-Patcher.app on the system!

 

How? Add AutoPkgInstaller.kext to your kext folder and config, create a USB Installer, show hidden files (CMD+SHIFT+.) of the USB flash drive, navigate to "Library" folder, create "Packages" folder in it and add the .pkg file to it. Install  from USB and voila, working Wifi, BT, External Display right from the start.

Yes, but what the author of this doesn't seem to realize: it's not just a so-called "Wifi-on-the-fly" patch for Sonoma. It's a complete auto-root-patching system applying whatever patches are available for the machine during macOS install. So once the first time set-up screen is reached, everything is running smoothly already, sind iGPU/GPU acceleration will be working already as well.

@allHi all my dear beta chasing darlings.

 

Sometimes I am just wandering where you guys are actually finding the time you spend on the beta development programs around macOS and it's ancillary developments to hopefully make beta stuff work for you, albeit sometime in the future, the future that seemingly never arrives. Personally I seem not to be able to muster that kind of time which seems to be required if I were also to follow the beta path you are pursuing in the depth you actually do.

 

I started hackintoshing for one simple reason only and that is to be able to benefit and enjoy the advantages of the Apple way of doing things, clear cut and straightforward, at a cost affordable to me. This has never been the case, at least as far as I am concerned, with MS, which for me just remains a huge incoherent heap of mess, even with Win 11.

 

What I am doing, on a daily basis with my hackintoshes without any problems and in a very a cost effective way  just cannot be accomplished with MS, fullstop.

 

Of cause if I were not, on a daily basis, heavily involved in the audio realm such as (Logic Pro, dBpoweramp and others) or Video editing (Final CutPro and others) Audacity, Handbrake, Adobe, MS Office for Mac, X-Plane, Resillio Sync, Amoeba, Dante and much more, I would naturally admit, without hesitation to be utterly bored with myself, on a daily basis and consequently be just as involved, as far as time spent on the various beta programs is concerned, as you darlings are.

 

I can however not see myself ever doing that, but I prefer to rather peek into the various beta offerings occasionally when time permits and concentrate on the activities that were the reason why I started hackintoshing originally.

 

Just my  2 cents.

 

Greetings Henties

Doesn't take me long to create a new APFS volume, download and install Apple's latest, reshttified, messOS and check if the basics are still working or not and document it. I seriously hope, that X86 support is killed next year, so that I don't longer have to do this. Otherwise I have to get into coding to fix this one goddang SDCArd kext that no longer works and no one cares about besides me.

My friend , in my case it is call retirement and it fills my empty days when the weather prevents me from flying my drones. :lol:

a bit late to the party. z690 hack updated from full install went well for me. I got time I'm  retired who likes to mess with stuff (it keeps me off the pot and porn joking)

@eSaFIn stead of flying drones I fly all sort of "study level" planes including choppers, with my favorite flight sim, being X-Plane. In that environment I can even decide  the kind of weather which I want for when I am a "captain" of a 747 "the queen of the skies", or a Bombardier Challenge CL650 simulated by Hotstart and behaving as closely as it can get to flying the "real" thing. Of cause my collection of flying machines is not only limited to the 2 planes which I have singled out here. After having spent many years pursuing this passion of mine I even feel confident that I would be able to land some of the most sophisticated planes that grace our skies should I ever be a passenger during an extreme emergency in the flight deck, when for instance the captain as well as the first officer are totally incapacitated, even considering that my "youthfulness", which I once thought I would be able to enjoy forever, has long since departed my ageing frame, guess that a kind of serious "metal fatigue", for which there is no cure,  has finally gotten hold of me.

Happy hacking and welcome aboard on flight "Delta Foxtrot Wiskey Eight Zero from Heathrow to JFKWelcomeonboard.thumb.png.fd9a28ea257a800dda04376de9bc0796.png

In as much as I enjoy tinkering with Hacks, I feel it’s necessary for me to have another interest apart from sitting at my p/c desk hearing my few remaining brain cells dying over a Hack problem hence my pleasure in taking to the blue yonder (actually its more grey than blue here in the UK) with my toys and having a good look around. Slightly OT but I plead attention deficiency due to advanced age so please forgive.
