USBMap Guide
I use your brilliant USBMap
cli tool as do many others, I know there are other methods but given that it and this guide are both yours I think it could be good to have a section here on how to use it.
After using USBMap
recently to get Catalina Beta to install I have to say it wasn't as complicated as the guides I came across made it out to be, especially with your tool although it can be hard to know where to start.
I was going to write a step by step guide for myself on it for future reference but if you think it would make sense in this guide I could put it here instead. lmk
CC download doesn't seem to work
The link http://mackie100projects.altervista.org/download-clover-configurator/ to download CC seems to navigate to an empty page when "download" is pressed. Had to dl CC via MacUpdate
Ivy Bridge config.plist
I have a GA-Z68M-D2H motherboard with a i7-3770 CPU. Do you have the matching Ivy Bridge config.plist?
USB Installer - need to give a link/explanation w.r.t. "partial" Install downloads
Good day,
There should be an explanation how to get the full Install image as the AppStore now only downloads a partial "stub" installer, so readers should be made aware that the case of this happening, that they should start the installer, let it download the full ~6GB installer image/data, abort/quit the installation when it request the reboot, and have that copied into the Install macOS Mojave
directory before the installmedia scripts would work.
Should that be done inline, or rather as a separate page linked to from the "Create Install USB" page?
[Suggestion] Clarification and more details needed for framebuffer patching
I was wondering if you could flesh out the Kaby/Coffe Lake framebuffer properties section a bit. It seems some details are missing that make the section confusing.
You say “the way we get the proper value for this is to look at the ig-platform-id we intend to use, then swap the pairs of hex bytes.” However, there is no mention of where or how to get the ig-platform-id or device id we need for our system in order to follow the rest of your instructions in the section.
Also, it isn't shown how to actually “swap hex bytes” and google wasn’t much help. A line or two on how to do this would be helpful.
So, if possible, I think it would help users, especially noobs, if this section was expanded a bit. And it might lead to fewer posts on reddit or discord asking for help.
Thanks.
ACPI names are *always* 4 characters
Hello CorpNewt,
Thank you very much for your excellent guide.
At one point, I think it needs a change:
'XHC' is represented as 'XHC_'
see: RehabMan
Quote: ACPI names are always 4 characters. 'XHC' is represented as 'XHC_'. Read the ACPI spec.

Why no Broadwell config.plist

Missing -n in echo
Very small issue, just for "to be fully correct". :)
echo External | base64
produces RXh0ZXJuYWwK
and the echo -n External | base64
will spit out the wanted RXh0ZXJuYWw=
:)

You can also convert from ASCII to base64 \(handy for working with ACPI renames - more about that later\) with the following in Terminal.app:
-`echo External | base64`
+`echo -n External | base64`
This will spit out `RXh0ZXJuYWw=` which is exactly what we'd expect.
Looks like this line is incorrect?
Coffee lake: animations lag and iGPU Metal support
Hi,
I've followed your guide to build an hackintosh but i'm experiencing some animations lag in the Mission Control due to the lack of the iGPU metal support.
What i've tried so far:
- Using different SMBIOSes: 17.1, 18.1, 18.2, and 18.3
- Using different ig-platform-id: 0x3E9B0007 and 0x3E920003 (for each SMBIOS above)
- Using a different DisplayPort
- Recompiled and installed WhateverGreen and Lilu with the latest GitHub changes
- Removing all USB devices
- Update the BIOS to the latest version
- Flip the GPU BIOS switch
- Remove the shikigva=40 bootflag
- Remove the shikigva=40 bootflag and the Devices>Properties section
Could the problem be related to some BIOS setting? Like CSM UEFI/Legacy option?

Sandy Bridge config.plist
First, thank you very munch for this beautiful guide!
I have an old Sandy Bridge based computer at home that I want to update.
It currently runs Yosemite with a tonymacx86 setup but I want to move on a vanilla setup (last time I played with Hackintosh stuff it was the golden age of Chameleon and DSDT files :-D).
Do you think that I can follow your Ivy Bridge section to perform a fresh High Sierra install?
Specs (if needed):
- MSI H61M-P31/W8
- Intel Core i5 2500K Sandy Bridge
- NVidia GeForce 8800GT
Thank you!
Missing instructions for using kexts in wiki
In the wiki, there's a page for gathering kexts, but it's never explicitly said where to put the kexts.

AptioMemoryFix no longer available in Clover ^v4988
Hey @corpnewt thanks for this guide, it's really easy to follow and I have never felt so confident about my hackintosh in the 5 years I've been using when as when I followed this guide.
AptioMemoryFix.efi
no longer ships with new versions of Clover. According to this ticket OsXAptioFix3Drv
is now the preferred driver. Recently I have been using this driver and haven't noticed any problems with stability, NVRAM. Should we change the docs at https://github.com/corpnewt/Hackintosh-Guide/blob/master/clover-setup.md#installing-clover to reflect these changes?
Can someone please update this for Catalina?
Catalina changes the game a little bit compared to previous versions. Especially Catalina 10.15.1 seems to break things i.e. sound etc.
