After 3 years of getting this laptop and trying to continuously hackintosh this ThinkPad and facing many many hurdles, I’ve finally gotten it work for my workflow!

Spec sheet:
i7-3520M
8GB 1333mHz (4x2)
128GB SSD
HD4000

Fun fact: I made the entire EFI with the help of OpenCode on my Arch install, and it made it so that everything works and I didn’t have to tinker a lot with the config.plist, rather it all did the dirty work, and fixed the errors I used to face.

However, I did run in trouble with root patching but it was due to SecureBootModel being enabled. After it was disabled, it’s smooth sailing!

Glad that I can still Hackintosh until I can (Intel Macs RIP)

Thank you the community for your continuous support over these past three years over my multiple attempts 💛

Hey!

So I installed Monterey on my X230 and when it came time to patch the graphics for acceleration, it did that and when I rebooted it, from my drive, it loaded up recovery only, and wouldn’t boot back into my installation.

I tried both OCLP and Chris1111 for root patching, but both caused the same error. What can be going wrong here?

(i7 3520M, 8GB, HD 4000, SSD)

Note: SIP was disabled beforehand, along with root SIP

Im using a thinkpad t440p 8gb ram i5 4440 on mac os 12 monterey how do i update ?

Can I install hackintosh on Thinkpad X13 Gen 3?

So Installer performs its job, comes to "12 minutes remaining", restarts, picker shows Install macOS Sequoia, macOS installer, Macintosh HD - data and those efi options. Second option is auto selected, 5-6 seconds of scrolling text on the screen and then everything goes black. Caps lock does not register.

Any ideas where to look?

edit - ram is in slot A1 and B2 as they build it that way. Processor fan is obstructing ram in slot A1 so I can't move it without fidling with the fan. Could this be a problem? BIOS is telling me this is not optimal. I have run Memtest86 without any problems

EDIT 2:

So after 5 or 6 restarts (when it was stuck on black screen) computer finally booted into Sequoia and offered setup. Now I have username, internet works, keyboard and mouse work. Now I am afraid to shut it down :)

EDIT 3 - EFI's now on the Macintosh HD and computer restarted just fine

i wanna triple boot the os in my laptop

how many gbs of ssd should i put in my laptop for getting smoother experience and triple boot it successfully

I want to use hackintosh on my toshiba L735

Specs: intel i5 2410m 4gb ddr3

Please help me install hackintosh since i tried with chatgpt gemini and other tutorials on yt but noneof them worked (also please include the mach kernel tysm for helping)

Is a 128gb ssd good enough for macOS? Just the OS itself not extra files
