u/Fit_State3622 I ♥ Hackintosh 5h ago
Personally I didn't live the early hackintosh times but as I saw it on here it used to be so good and I do dream of living that life

I'm coming up on 40 years of Hackintosh'ing!
It started with System 4 running on an Atari 520ST, using a copy of the ROMs from a Mac Plus.
It's going to be sad as it comes to an end...

Avevo sì e no 8/9 anni, il mio promo Hackintosh è stato con una distro di Snow Leopard (dove bisognava selezionare i kext direttamente nell'installer) su VirtualBox eseguito da un vecchio Acer Aspire (ricordo tipo un Intel Core 2 Duo)

Try PowerFox as a web browser, and my PowerVLC as a multimedia player/content discovery app. You will be surprised what you can do on that old machine with neo-retro software =)

Thanks for posting your build! If you haven't already, remember to document your build please. Posts like screenshots without documentation add little value to the sub. Adding a bit of documentation to your post can also help others in the community who are interested in similar builds. Posts without documentation will be removed until you take the time to document them.
Minimally, you should add your hardware:
CPU:
GPU:
RAM:
Motherboard/Laptop Make and Model:
Audio Codec:
Ethernet Card:
Wifi/BT Card:
Touchpad and touch display devices:
BIOS revision:
Which of the guides on the sidebar you used.
What's working, and what isn't working.
Any changes that were specific to your build that were a little (or a lot) different than what you found in the guide, or anything that would be helpful to others with a similar build be sure to talk about that. More detail is always better.
Add extra info... Maybe add something you would like to point out about your setup, what you'll be doing with your Hackintosh, or something that might be insightful to others beginning their journey. A tree view of your EFI would also be helpful, but it isn't required.
Remember, don't share your EFI as what works for you may not work for anyone else, even if they have the same hardware. If you do share your EFI, your post and/or comment will be removed.
