Hackintosh Thread

Hey guys, what have been your experiences with hackintosh machines? I'm currently trying to make my own with triple boot between Windows 10, OSX Sierra and Ubuntu.

Currently creating the usb installation for OSX Sierra on a OSX Sierra VM, I've attempted it before but with partitioning my SSD and it was hell, also audio never worked and ended up fucking up the whole installation and other partitions. Now I'm installing every OS in an exclusive SSD/HDD. Any good guides?

I'm using a GTX 780, so I'm not injecting Nvidia Drivers on the USB installation.

I'm doing the same right now. I've done it successfully on a laptop once but this time it's on a desktop, so it should be easier.

Currently trying to fix the formatting issues...

Which formatting issues? I'm stuck right now because Unibeast opens the OS X Base System windows and seems is waiting for me to change something in there, once I close the windows Unibeast tells me it failed.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

My experience was that it took a shitload of time and effort, was occasionally buggy, didn't support power management well, and would brick if you upgraded before some shady Russian people released a fix.

My hackintosh worked pretty nice other than the fact that the " and < keys were swapped. Any fixes?

It's a hassle to maintain in the long run. System upgrades might compatibility with certain kexts and unless you can write your own or you have very common hardware you might end up either having to roll back or having to buy new hardware. Drivers in general appear to be subject to potential quirks, for instance, the onboard LAN adapter (on a motherboard "known to be working fine" for hackintoshing, mind you) i was using would cause system crashes randomly which forced me to get a new LAN card. On the same motherboard the onboard sound would start putting weird noises upon data transfer over the network.

Using the inbuilt backup solution was less than optimal after running for a year, as OSX decided to corrupt the entire backup drive for no apparent reason. Sadly I never got that data back.

There's probably issues I forgot about.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
